As silly as it sounds, I like the idea, but make it a glove or helmet

"Midas touch Gold Gloves"

"Midas Vision Golden Visage"

How about this as a helmet?...

Shimmering Tiara
Unique Helmet
Requires: Level 16, 34 Int
+(50–100)% Increased Armour
+(100-150)% Increased Quantity of Gold Dropped by Slain Enemies
+(5–10)% To Lightning Resistance
50% Increased Light Radius

Unique Effect: Gold Pickup Radius Is Increased By Light Radius

Flavor Text:
“The darkness is shattered by the shimmering light of gold.”

Yes this is it, +10 % lightning resistance! Not negative. Now this is a fun item, not overpowered by any mean and some ppl would use it. In my case, the drawback would be losing +3 to all minions and a lot of resistance/energy shield, but this is acceptable.

But we see here, there is no need for explicit drawbacks because there is already a big drawback of using it instead of a end game helmet.

If the devs would generally go in this direction with this type of proposed item, then the game would feel so much better.

Agreed and updated OP.

Literally no point in having an item like that when you have Castaway as a map.

How many castaways maps are accessible in your world right now?
This helmet works for all maps and is a fun item. It would see usage unlike 99.9% of the actual unique pool this game has.

This proposed helmet is available at the start of the campaign at level 16, not having to wait to endgame maps.

I'll be real..... I'd rather have it boost EXP. I never have issues with gold. I can spend 2 million on a ventors strongbox and by the time I find the next have another 2 mil.

It would only really be decent in early campaign to gamble for upgrades.

None because I completed them all and I don't have anything to use my gold on. One Castaway map is like 3mil gold.

Well at the end of the day, it's a fun item if you need to grind gold, clearly not an end game piece of gear.

I personally would use it because Alva Gambling in SSF is quite important.
If you had infinite gold, you would realize you can get the best amulet/ring in the game by gambling.

Someone in 0.1 got lucky and gambled a mirror worth amulet with Alva. Yes this is very rare and unlikely but it gives you more way to have fun with the game, which is currently lacking.

Agreed, I think having a unique for farming gold while starting the campaign would be an awesome addition. I like the idea better as a helmet.

Yes, it would be designed as an early game gold finding unique used during the campaign for gambling. Definitely not endgame.
