this is more result of 'people ignore prophecies' than of rarity per se
it could be quite common but if people ignore prophecies (and wait until others waste their time) - it would still be rare and unobtainable given that most loot filters remove silver coins in their 'strict' versions it is no wonder noone has it (and it is rare on its own right as a prophecy). double dip rarity in action |

" Multiple people dumped thousands and thousands of coins into prophecies on standard to get this prophecy with little to no luck. |

" And 99% of people didn't. If they had, there would be a lot more of the prophecy going around. |

" Not really. For reference, on BSC alone there's 14 Trash to Treasures, and 22 Fated Connections. Prior to Atziri's Reflection, they were the rarest Prophecies around, "you will never see this"-rarity. People who actively run Prophecies go out and buy thousands of Coins, they compensate for a vast majority of the people who don't run Prophecies at all. There's plenty Coins being spent, especially now. Council chain is worth it, Trash to Treasure has always been incentive, and this shield exists. The scarcity of Atziri's Reflection has everything to do with the Prophecy being stupendously rare. |

Dude. They literally named it Atiziri's Reflection, and you get it from an Atiziri's Mirror. It kind of makes sense that it would be mirror rarity all of its lore points to that.

" Just wondering, do you think it's healthy for a game on a 13-week update schedule to saturate its market with every single chase unique in 1 week? |

I just find it funny like most chase items, people get uber pissed no pun ok well maybe. That they can't get one.
I've played for 2 years never got a HH was it impossible? no i tried numerous times. Not cause I want the item but cause of it's value. Atziri's reflection is pretty trash really. It only has any value at all to curse builds, that are stacking 3+ curses. It's super niche so 99% of the community isn't going to chase it. Yes I could magically become ultra rich, but that is assuming the couple thousand niche players have the money to pay me for it anyways. Unlike Head hunters, mirrors, etc this item only impacts a super small group. While yes a handful of people have slammed coins for it, it's not like head hunters where the entire player base is going after it. Cause the buyer pool is actually pretty low. Overall the only thing the item gives of any value is, 20% effectiveness of curses. Which can be huge I give you that, but... It's not build defining, you will only pick up a small amount of actually benefit from the item. The curse immunity is easily done via just about any flask. Rest of the stats are pretty meh, and depending on your damage method, you can probably get more damage, out of a better item in that slot than you can the curse effectiveness. |

It has 2 mods that make it a unique people would want to build around. Curse Immunity (for some specific encounters, and some hipster builds that rely on being cursed), and +15-20% curse effectiveness (so it's a replacement for dying breath in curse builds, and a bis shield for curse/skill hybrid builds.)
" Well then they should at least make it as easy as a mirror to get. Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/657756 Last edited by dudiobugtron#4663 on Mar 10, 2018, 4:04:01 PM

" if the odds of a prophecy to proc was as rare as a mirror versus other currency to drop, you would need to have about 200,000 prophecy's to proc on average before this one would the reality from reports is that 3000 coins can yield one of these, therefore it is much less rare than a mirror I got a fever and the only prescription, is more cowbell!
