Still too long to citadels

Just to drop this here, yes its still too long until Citadels appear on the atlas.
I'M currently at level 96 and haven't seen one citadel, even with just pathing in one direction(and searching the fog) since hitting 94. ~300 maps+ in since hitting only t15.

Sure I was a little distracted by the new shiny dangerous boss maps but still, why are citadel spawns still so bad? Is there something I'm missing?

Experiencing the same, same level too. I have followed the corruption, looked for the little pyramids, nothing. These are far far too rare.

I have 180 hours in this league, I have found zero citadel.

Absolute joke

On one hand I think the change in rarity is a little extreme, but on the other people seem to be judging it against prior patches and I don't think that's reasonable either. They've obviously made a conscious decision to push AoA progression a step beyond the first four pinnacle mechanics which seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to do especially given all of the feedback people have about how there's "nothing to do in the endgame."

I also think people might have a wakeup call coming in terms of the average duration of PoE2 leagues. Given the already substantial campaign with 2 more acts to come and the fact that they're signaling multi-tier Atlas progression like this, I think it's very likely they are working toward a model with significantly longer Leagues than folks are used to from PoE1.
