How many divination cards are actually helping gameplay and how many are just trolls?
|
I like divination cards. The rates may be a little on the low side, but they are fun. Even the random ones. If you (general "you", not directed at anyone specifically) dislike randomness, I don't understand what you're doing in this game anyway. Drops are random, damage is random, spawns are random, even map shape is random. Randomness should never be regarded as an issue, on divination cards or anywhere else, because it's fundamental to this game's design, and to me it's a big part of the fun.
And I don't think there's any troll card. They all have their uses. Even the 40 wisdom scroll one. With warbands and tormented spirits so often present I'm actually getting more rares than scrolls, at some point I may have to go farm that card :) |

" I've turned in cards for two wisdom scroll stacks now. Seems like such a weak little prize but really, if you like to run Library for XP then it's a nice little bonus. Especially since that one drops so often. Some of the other cards seem so rare it's a "why bother". I'd really like to see all cards drop super frequently, like 2 or 3 card drops in every zone. Then to compensate just make the stacks bigger. For instance, say the 6 link astral plate card. You could actually go farm Fellshrine and pick some of those up, which would give a feeling of hope even though you might need a stack of 400 to get the reward. The way it is now you might run the zone 100's of times before you see that card once and that's just discouraging. |

^Wait until you start mf'ing the museum map where "the scholar" drops, free triple boss loot and 40 wisdoms handily provided in your run :).
It's pretty nifty. Peace, -Boem- Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes

I especially like how the cards drop in themed areas, and their look. I am glad they're not mainly equipment. Tarot isn't baseball cards.

And if it's just a currency then what's so bad about it? Everything in this game is a currency, every single item.
Id rather get some orbs as a reward than some shit life armor. Bullshit makes the flowers grow

Too many random nonserious players farming random things grouping up forming some ill-informed opinions, not being able to get what people write. Then when the discussion gets more focused they dump out of the discussion, then return later when the discussion moved on to state again what they said before .
Hah. Funny thread. I am the light of the morning and the shadow on the wall, I am nothing and I am all.

Divination Cards should be removed from game altogether. It's just another "rich man feature" which will only benefit 0,1% of the playerbase.

" By that measure, let's remove all mirrored gear too. And anything that has been the target of an Eternal Orb. Oh and let's remove all rare currencies, they're only for rich people anyway. Maybe remove uber Atziri and the top tier of maps while we're at it. Great argument! Silly argument. | |
" Why not? This game was long enough only for the "rich man". |
