Ok what is the deal with the "Large Pool of MIasma" random at the ritual site? I have done several of them and no XP or rewards?? Are they broken?

Do you click once and siphon or????

I really dislike when things in this game don't work well, or worse yet, there is no explanation on how they SHOULD work.

"It can be interacted with to siphon it away, but the siphoning progress is reset when purple smoke appears over the miasma. Clicking the miasma again when the smoke appears will prevent progress from being reset."

This Reddit user may have described the way to do this random event better:

"Just click it every time the progress bar fills at all, including when purple smoke pops up. 100% success rate this way.

You have to click off when the purple smoke appears"

Two ways to do it:

1) Click the pool every time the progress bar goes up. This will stop it from resetting.

2) Click the pool only when you see the purple smoke appear and then click once more after the progress bar goes up. The reason to do this is because you can get B2B purple smoke. The smoke won't show if it triggers again, so the extra click is more of a precaution just in case you get another purple.

Method 1 is slower, but safer as it guarantees success providing you reach the pool in time.

Method 2 is riskier, but you will siphon the pool faster as not clicking makes the progress bar go up faster. This is the method I use.

I find clicking just when I see the purple smoke but I can't see it on fixed view as I have to be able scroll nearer to the miasma pool when it appears.

You do have to click it twice when the smoke appears because, as Singularity said, you can get two smokes together. I do occasionally fail to get the reward but it works 99% of the time.
