That's the third divination card that can reward a headhunter I think? Doctor rewards a regular one, Fiend rewards a corrupted one, now this. Oh, I guess time lost artifact or whatever can reward one too (though will most likely not)

I farm exp. Lol if you think I would farm specifically for this. My cards would just come from me having done the map it drops in for exp and it happens to drop.

This probably has more to do with Lightning Arrow 100% Pierce being really broken with Frost Wall than Doomfletch's Prism being overpowered (or a combination of both) but I just wanted to say I killed each phase of normal Izaro, normal Malachai, and every single act boss in Cruel last night with a single shot of Lightning Arrow.

Doomfletch's Prism is really goddamn strong on its own, especially with any good flat phys gear. It took until Merciless for me to stop reliably oneshotting rares with it (and if I had an Abyssus it probably could have lasted until maps). Combined with LA/FW...yeah, it's good.

Inquisitor and Elementalist are both great. I ran it as a Pathfinder and it was also sweet. Inquisitor will probably have the highest overall damage output, Elementalist is good for not instakilling yourself on reflect (this happened distressingly often, though my resists needed beefing up), and Pathfinder is like a slightly weaker Inquisitor with some sweet flask augments (notably, one of the Pathfinder ascendancies and the node near the bottom give you a small but respectable amount of penetration, and you also start in bow central so you don't have to deal with leveling off-spec).

All the new Div cards for 2.3.2

Can't wait to have literally none of them drop for me!

Lots of speculation on what the new "stacked deck" currency does, but I haven't seen any that really make sense to me.

Anything that has to do with duplicating/replicating another card seems silly- otherwise we'd be swimming in mirrors/headhunters.

Same for increasing div card drop rate/etc.

One person suggested it could be used as the final card in a set (ex: can trade in a 4/5 set + 1 stacked deck), which seems somewhat plausible.

Anyone else have good ideas?

I was thinking a stacked deck currency item would be a good imprint type item like the eternal orb but you imprint on a equipment type then add it to the map device and it influences the drop chances in the map of that type of equipment

Also, I was exploring the idea of what I would do if I were to design an in game unique. I think a unique from a repeatable hidden recipe would be cool and I really wish Cast on Death was a useful gem beyond linking to portal and also useful in HC. So here's my idea:

A vendor recipe incorporating a leveled Cast on Death gem which produces a unique amulet called "%someone's% ahnk" (maybe piety fits thematically) and allows the wearer to resurrect at 50% hp if their life pool drops to 0; the amulet is consumed on use. Part of me thinks this needs additional drawbacks but maybe not.

Amulets of Lifesaving are lame in Nethack and they'd be 100x more lame in PoE. A unique like that would literally be worn by every hardcore player without exception at all times no matter what, period. Not very good for diversity.

Also lol at saying "might need a drawback but nah probably not" to an item that would trivialise an entire game mode.

you could make it an antidying amulet with a No Experience Gain While Equipped mod, so ppl in hc can do funny poo poo without risk of dying, but the whole point of hardcore is that whatever you do comes with the risk of dying (and also items/currency leaving the league)

Fair enough. I think giving a use to Cast on Death in HC is still an interesting idea ... no/reduced XP is actually an interesting drawback.

eh, based on the recent Q&A post, they have a queue of nearly 300 customer designed uniques. I don't really care that much ... just think it's an interesting thought experiment.
