I don’t believe come up times correlate with quality product IMO. Because I don’t believe there is any one batch/phenotype/synthesis route that is considered the “best” by everyone who tries it.
I’ve always felt this, more so lately, that individuals may prefer this or that batch more. 90’s Leuckart MDMA is an example of that IMO, some people enjoyed the speedy intensity that forced you to dance, others felt it wasn’t the same as pure MDMA.
I’ve tried amazing stuff that came up quick, and other shit that would take 45min. For me it’s not so much the come up timing as it is the fact that I’m rolling good by an hour or so.
I think there’s going to be some batches which still vary but still also give the “magic” that said certain factors still must remain the same.
I think the best way to figure this out is to talk with people who’ve felt they’ve been either getting magic MDMA or at least retained the magic (assuming the worst and it is tolerance) for all this time, and what variations they feel in their rolls. By finding commonalities with this population you can get a better answer to your question.
As someone who’s been getting amazing product for much of my MDMA taking career I feel I can respond
-Pupil dilation is pretty much always there. That one I can agree on, I can’t think of a time I took a full solid dose and didn’t have big ass pupils. Maybe not completely engulfed but usually big as fuck. Noticeable to say the least lol.
-Duration of 4-6 hours. This one is big to me, and I notice is a complaint a lot amongst others who feel they’ve been lied to by people like me. Ive only had one roll in all my life that felt shorter than it should have been, I think I dosed at 9pm And was down by 1230 or so.. That was odd to me. Anything shorter than 4 hours is too short, especially with how fast time flies on the shit.
-Empathy is always on high. You can’t stay angry at someone on it no matter how hard you try. I notice this attitude seems to be lacking from a lot of MDMA users these days.
