The Hoarder - My Divination Card for 1 Exalted Orb

All i can see are these thousends of bots farming them cards now :D

If cards are gated by lvls and or rng, bots are only solution to retardedsaa.

Thing is to me divination cards are too bot friendly. Even a low lvl derp bot farming a zone with some unique turn ins give few alch at the end of the day. Imagine if a card like that drop in a regular map... It's nonsense.

Bots already wreck the economy. The Chaos/Fuse>>Ex rate is broken because any time a boting player releases currencies in the economy, it destroys the balance of everything. Now introducing new ones that will go further in the breaking.

The only thing positive Imho is the BoR card, item will be outshadowed pretty easily but it will get dramatically cheaper(like you should be able to buy cards for 2c or something) and it will be easy to get at least decent-ish weapons and resists to clean midtier-ish content with ease as melee(up to actual 75ish maps).

It would be perfect if those cards were related to smaller Masters-like event, but even then it has been proved that some players use maphacks, particulary in races, so...

There is no doubt in my mind that it's either going to take a huge stack of them (1500? just like crafting **cough**cough**... buying a 6L) and that it'll be RNG gated so low as to drop as often as a 5L which means once in a blue moon.

If you think about it it doesn't really matter how fast we can get these cards as the PoE economy will adjust to the quantity of exalts in circulation. That's just inflation 101 so if I can buy a 6S/5L Carcuss Jack for 2½ exalts today in Standard league and The Hoarder cards are fairly easy to drop then next fall when I have 50 Exalts this same item could cost 10 times more.

And how it is an issue ? if the exalt are 10 times easier to get and the price are 10 times higher, there isnt any impact.

botting really doesnt seem easy in this game.....

Quoting this from a locked thread on the same topic due to it being a duplicate of this one:

"

It requires 12 cards to trade in.

Each card has a slightly higher droprate of 2100 compared to an Exalt's 1600 (Chaos droprate is 48000)

So effectively, Exalts from the divination card are ~9 times as rare as a real exalt

How does it make any sense to make a single divination cards for an exalt only so minusculy higher in drop chance than a full exalt orb???

I would have thought that getting all 12 divination cards would have the same rarity in total compared to getting a single exalt. With the quoted drop rate, it makes zero sense to bother farming for divination cards.

"Please note that drop rates from different categories of items are not comparable. For example, the drop rate of Scroll of Wisdom is as rare as a mirror if you compare them that way... People misinterpreting them and posting false statements that other people will interpret as facts is very dangerous." - from reddit, by Chris

Exalted divination cards and Exalted orbs are not really different categories if they give the sdame item.

To get 12 exalted divination cards for a single ex orb, you are looking at the equivilent grind of getting 8-10? pure exalted orbs. How the heck does that make any sense?

They are different categories if GGG had not classified divination cards as currencies. It doesnt matter if they give the same item or not.

So you think that a drop rate or 2100 for this div card, of which you need 12 (however the units work, I dont know) compared to 1600 for an actual ex orb is fair?
