I am so glad this is making it into the core game, it is a massive boon to players and an amazing tuning instrument for content that the devs have access to.

However, please for RNGesus' sake do not do this to the drop rates of the coins. In order to get any desirable prophecies to trigger I have been buying coins in stacks of 120 in the league. I was also not sealing prophecies that I got that were not good and although doing this I turned a modest profit most of the coins I got went to rolling the trash prophecies that I just triggered right away and ignored. If you are going to lower the coin drop rates this move needs to be accompanied by the removal of junk prophecies from their drop table. Things like tempests, undead brutes and other prophecies that served as flavor can not trigger as often as they do now or at all if the silver well is going to run nearly dry from the way you make it sound.

This is an amazing feature, don't kill it in standard with a drop nerf.

first, tempest prophecies are very good, especially in maps.

second, have you thought that maybe you aren't supposed to 'get desirable prophecies to trigger' as often ? like, it's supposed to be a rare and exciting occasion ?

In regards of the Reach nerf- who has enough exalts to buy a well crafted Harbinger? Rich ppl in Standard. I paid 40ex for a 6l Reach there, equivalent Harb would be +/- 100-150ex.

I have dreamt of playing with a really kick ass bow since I started playing this game but they were always unattainable for me. There are already many bows existing that are as strong or stronger than Reach- I just can't afford them.

If my bow gets nerfed and I am back to staring at Harbs that I can't afford, I'm seriously throwing my toys out of the pram & re-evaluating my gaming choices. I feel like whatever I want to play has a risk of getting nerfed every 3 months, getting thoroughly tired of it.
