Are you finding Divination cards useful or fun?
" The alternative is worse. If they gave you exalts every time you would never see the cards drop. At least now you get a slot pull out of it. |

Personally I have really enjoyed the divination cards. Even if I don't complete them, I like hearing the stories of how people decided to commit to placing something in a game that they were passionate about.

" That argument would work, if the bloody things dropped. They however DO NOT. They're just another trade-thing, nothing else. At least they're a good way to purchase a high-tier item, piece by piece, instead of going 24ex in one purchase. Participated in the working of the Dyadus Avatar of Fire Templar:

I love the idea of them, to get players out in to different zones to farm specific cards

I farmed div cards to get a tabula. A friend gifted me the cards he found and I spend an unhealthy amount of time in Aqueduct and ran every channel map I had.
Not worth the effort and the boredom. I should have just farmed Dried Lake and bought a tabula. Same thing is true for Whispering Ice and Western Forest. Didn't get a single card. PoE needs better social features... and more cats!

Drops will never be able to beat trading... unless they're willing to make drops bound, which they're not.

Idea is good, the reality is that they are useless to farm, it's another chance of drop on high level maps where some of best cards can be found, but overall I've found usefull only farming graveyard for "The Lover" that is common and used for Chaos recipe. For cards harder to find spending the same amount of time in farming casual maps and trading it's way more profitable, and less boring.

Thanks to Charan, for the first time ever, I spent time farming. While waiting for the three "Birth of the Three" cards to drop, I learned farming is boring...
...but good drops happen. Got a Consuming Darkness (which improved my build); a Marohi (which I have been looking for since OB), a Springleaf, several uniques I already have in other leagues and 4 or 5 unique jewels. Still, I don't think I will be farming again. Hitting the same guy over and over is really just plain mean. | |
" And BotT is one of the easier cards to farm. I probably spent less than an hour and a half, and got the first two cards within a half hour probably. | |
" Yeah, took me somewhat longer. |
