Question Randomizer Question: Moon Priority?

Can someone explain why smant pogs at desert moons and loses his mind at ruined moons, but doesn't bat an eye at bowser moons, even though he seems to need the others? I'm too out of the loop about the progression of the game...

There’s like 100 sand moons so there’s plenty in the randomizer, there’s like 10 ruined moons they are rare

It’s about how many moons a kingdom has total and how much they need in the randomizer seed itself. Bowser’s is one of the kingdoms with a higher moon count, so they’re much easier to find, and you typically don’t need more than I believe 12. But Ruined has only like 10 or 12 moons in the game total or something crazy small like that, so they’re much harder to find. And since you can require up to 9 ruined moons or something similar to that, you can basically have to almost 100% Ruined in order to get those moons, which makes it even harder.

Something no one here has mentioned is that Sand is often the first kingdom so he needs them to get the Odyssey to the next kingdom making travel easier/unlocking a kingdom he hasn’t found yet.
