Well Mr Chris(t) already debunked the trading card idea.
Divination... Finding stuff? So i'll go ahead and say it's free stuff for no work. But mostly crap stuff =) The Hyperbomber for 2.6: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1879383

"What Unique item is referenced on the Divination Card "The Archdemon"?
Chris: "The Harvest"" Meh The only explanation i see is you can summon a unique and play with it in a dynamic items vs monsters world : http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/535144/page/3#p4843962 He knew it: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1242499

it'd be cool if they could be obtained through outside the game, and be used to obtain rare things ingame, or otherway around

So
Here's another clue: No boss fight is necessarily involved in this process. You enter the colosseum, you start doing challenges: First one is detroy few rhoas. First card is used . If you succeed you have a chance to get a new one. The tenth one is a boss fight where even monsters can help you destroy the bigg boss. If you succeed you have a chance to get the 11th card and you have 100% chanc to get the Harvest. He knew it: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1242499

So, the first clue was that "The Harvest" is indeed refering to a league-specific Unique item and not something else. So it's probably a safe guess, that Divination cards introduce to the game a way other than Zana to get league-specific Uniques. (the name also supports that)
Also the clue implies that "Archdemon" is the name of the card. It's not necessarily the boss you need to fight and not some other thing, but just a name. (Though one would assume it is some kind of a big demon from Beyond? Probably Abaxoth?). Also there is flavour text. "The demons are inside of us, walking hand in hand" - it clearly talks about the Beyond league, where we spawn demons from within "inside" of mobs in packs. What's left to understand: "no boss fight is necessarily a part of the process" and "10/12". First has 2 implications: 1) These cards may drop not only from bosses, so probably a random drop from anywhere in the game? 2) While I assume beyond card(s) (Archdemon at least) are a boss fights, some leagues didn't have "bosses" associated with them (Nemesis, Bloodlines, etc) so probably they will not be a boss-fight, but rather a fight against some mechanics from those leagues. Like 10 fast plink (or necrovigil) packs in a narrow tunnel? :D The last thing is "10/12". I don't have a clue what it is though, I've seen suggestions that it's like 10th card out of 12, but I seriously don't see a merit of putting that on a card. Imagine a set of MtG cards, where every one card has 1/300, 2/300,... on it for no other reason but just for pure numeration. Makes no sense. "10/12" should refer to some kind of "power of card" or "chance of drop" or I don't know. |
