2. there was more cores and you simply didnt find them as you didnt check every corner of the mine.

i cleared about 30 mines by now. i NEVER had zero cores. never. so the chance of this beeing even possible is stupid low if even.

It literally says in the Wiki 0+ cores can be found which means 0 is an option.. and there was 3 of us playing.. trust me we didn't miss anything and it was a new game new world. But hey man YOU'RE right like always no wayyyy I experienced what I did.

i wouldnt take the wiki for granted. now of course rng can be rng. but 2 mines in a row with 0 cores like i said the chances of this beeing the case is VERY VERY LOW if at all. that would have then been some of the worst luck you could have gotten pretty much.
and yeah such cases can occur. but they definitly arent the standard thats for certain.
