That's one advantage with the harder-to-make items - they give the monsters a much bigger XP boost.

I generally send a two-element monster into the Wondermine. He doesn't always find diamonds, but I can generally rely on getting a slime every time and a mushroom most times, but the point is he only takes two hours.

I might change my tune once I start getting rarer items, though.
