Divine / Exalted orb ?????

GGG didn't respect our time. They make everything harder and harder to find. Now both ex and divine are rare af.

I think Divines being too valuable to use for most of us (I include myself in that group) is a forgone conclusion. I didn't mind exalts as the de facto currency because who cares other than metacrafters -- its rarity vs. its utility were never in line with using it unless you were SSF. But Divines had a real purpose that mattered to the the whole spectrum of players.

Yeah, this was a dumb change.
Thanks for all the fish!

Honestly an awesome change, or i should say it WILL be when they actually buff end game uniques.

Currently end game uniques can't be buffed, because divines exist and are/ were plentiful.

Now, if divines are extremely rare, you CAN buff uniques. If disfavour had the potential to be something nuts like 700 to 1200pdps (hypothetically), but you could only very rarely and expensively divine it, boom now you have a chase drop. And now you also have a boss farm, hoping for the drop with good rolls. AND, now you have useful end game uniques, AND a reason to get excited for unique drops even if they're more common.

Divines have single handedly held back almost all uniques from being allowed to have a powerful top end roll. Quite honestly I'd delete them.

Well the absolute ceiling would be 600 (full inv) at least for PC.

The problem is that at like 300c+ divines become far too valuable to actually use, for anything really, unless you are in the .1% of players.

Imo this is a pretty toxic change in trade league in terms of player experience. While it certainly encourages people to farm for more uniques rather than roll them, the average player, well, it's a no-brainer. Sell your divines. Always.



There doesn't have to be a ceiling of 600 chaos. There's stuff like mirrors which have been above 600ex for years now. Makes trading for mirrors a real risk so I never bothered to convert my exalts into mirrors.

It's a functional ceiling without taking extremely dumb risks, or involving other currencies like ichors, which at that point we wouldnt even be talking Divine --> Chaos.

Anyways its unlikely in the non-standard trade league that it gets to 600 so probably not worth concerning ourselves.

If it does, well then GGG, who Chris told Josh Strife Hayes that the economy is more important than server stability, has fucked up very badly.

Did you clip my entire post just to have a snarky one liner, or is that where you stopped reading because why have a meaningful discussion, let's just be mad at things?

Yes, yes I did.

And its only fair to combat a totally hypothetical arguement that a percieved negative change is actually good, because of some future state that may never exist.
