Currency Nerfs

"

Well fuck. Here I've been thinking that my RNG this league has been absolute garbage. I got more chromes than whetstones/scraps combined...

LOL - you just made me go check

Chromatics: 262
Whetstones: 166
Armorer Scraps: 90


262 > 256

Yeah, that's unusual. TBF, I usually don't use Armorer Scraps for ID scrolls, in past leagues I always used Transmute orbs... but I just barely breached 100 Transmutes while barely ever using them and NOT trading them into IDs, as I'm progressing into Yellow maps. Yeah, wierd league.

At least you got chromes lmao. I had to basically vendor the 3 link different color items for my chromes , because they cannot drop for my life (and wheatstones/scraps from chests only).

I'm an obsessive 3-link chrome vendorer. Pretty sure that's why I got so many more of them.

Ditto, and any wierd currency nerf would obviously not much affect my chrome supply because I don't really get them from currency drops.

My drops have been normal. I have gotten 10 chaos by act 6. That's bout normal.

The fact that you are refuting by stating your chaos orbs indicates your reading comprehension is not normal, however.

Except no one was discussing chaos, but the rest of the currencies yah lullygrubber.

This is the first time in over 5 years I've had trouble affording master crafting resists. I've been wondering what is going on for two days now.

I have a feeling nets are eating into transmute and augment orbs especially.

That would be pretty bad if that's what ggg decided to do.

That's exactly how it feels and most likely is as well, especially since they're a stackable currency. The amount of nets that are being dropped is insane, you get something like 5 below your tier, 5 your tier and ~ 2 top gear nets per map.

This also seems intentional by GGG because it increases the incentive to use Bestiary but Bestiary is a complete waste of time.

drop rate have been shit for few seasons now, for someone who never do sextant it is not a news. I think they nerfed the drops because of how breaches/abysses/sextant were giving currency.

Now with the nerf to sextant people start to see what casuals have seen for some time.

How about you get to maps before you start commenting on what drop rates in the actual game look like? God forbid GGG would balance the game based on dumb comments like yours. Overall currency is little bit on the lower side because of the no artificial packsize increase from league mechanics but definitely is nothing to complain about.
