I think most people aren't selling them because they use the salts for their own crafting.

I think there is an issue with how they are respawning. My cities in Kumala see zero elemental spawns where they once spawned often. However 240 squares away in Azura my single city over there may kill 6-10 groups of elementals each week.

Hoarding implies that they are keeping them for the sake of keeping them. Some may be doing so, but I think generally speaking, most aren't selling them because few are buying them because there is nor way to use them that makes economical sense. With the changes instituted lately this may change.

I kept a couple of hundred back, in case of scarcity later. I was only thinking in terms of equipping commanders for me and my allies at that point. Now that amount looks small, as it has now become useful to equip ordinary units.

Are people hoarding salts? I hadn't heard of that.

Brandmeister is correct in my opinion. The relative cost of salts to the utility of what they can produce simply means that it is more expensive to use them than to keep them....so people keep them and don't use them. You can only change this equation if using them becomes more beneficial.

...if that was the case, then extra battlestats would have to be calculated for each region, else there wouldn't be such big differences.
In Turalia are some water elementals standing around, nor sure, if those are new, or just neglected...

Speculation: is elemental spawning tied to any game stats? e.g. battle casualties?

When I moved to Lan Larosh, I used to see Fire Elementals. I haven't seen any there in a long time. I haven't seen any elementals in The Broken Lands either. Long ago I also painstakingly recorded areas of sighted Air Elementals to determine their territory, and recently I saw them far out of their normal area.
