Eternal Orbs drop rate needs to be changed.

Eternal orbs should be about equal to exalts, not 3-4 x the price.

The reason is that even at a 2 ex investment per roll, the chances of getting a mod you want are generally very low and it is a price point that most people will still not be able to afford meaning you wont suddenly see everyone with perfect gear at little initial investment.

It is a horrible idea. Top notch gear should exist only for a very small pool of players who dedicate the most time and effort (ignoring RMT cheaters). If the game was made any easier GGG would lose a large majority of its hardcore player base

Our daily prayer is RNG, so it doesn´t make sense what you say. It is not a thing of time and dedication, but a thing of pure luck wether to have good gear or not. At least we are told so every day.

And if GGG does not work about the droprate, ( be it orbs or uniques or maps) they will keep a good part of their self-appointed "hardcore-players", but loose a very big part of their common playerbase ( who are paying the bills)

Still yet to find a single eternal orb, but meh, I don't really care. I play aRPG, not MMO. New character every week or two, new gear all the time.
All this crafting gear for your lvl 90+ characters is a joke.

This says more about the community than it does drop rates. After all, divines are rarer than exalts, yet are cheaper.

People would have a big surprise if they knew the real drop rates :)
