Do you like Circle of Fortune or Merchant's Guild better?

[Casul Gamer]

I know there have been discussions about which guild is better for getting the best items, but I'm curious just how enjoyable either guild has been for them.

I've tried both, but I haven't gotten far enough in either one to make a decision. I've sold a few cheap things for around 1000 and gotten some loot explosions in CoF.

Being able to get any set item or unique has been really nice about about MG. I also like being able to have better rolls with Glyph of Hope in CoF. Still kinda undecided about which I like better.

CoF

Can neither confirm or deny but the rumor is that the rank bonus for CoF is not working as intended? or at least as read, when it comes to LP.

So I would assume that makes it a bit skewed.

Merchants guild by far.... I havent even leveled anything with the other one....

Merchants guild however will take the most hits when it comes to balance as it relies on playerbase.... but so far so good its worked great for what I need

I don't know about that whe. It comes to LP.

It seems to be working just fine. 3lp and 4lp will still be hard to get

I have about 8 3lp items. One of these is actually a 3lp quiver needed for my build others not what i want for my build tho. 1lp and 2 lp drop quit often with rank 6. I have I think 3 tabs full of 1lp and 2 lp items

Alot more players would be talking about it if there was something wrong with rank 6. What players do talk alot about is prophecies not effecting boss drops

One thing about merchant's guild I forgot to mention is that it's not just being able to get uniques and set items, but you're also able to get the ones with very high rolls bc there's hundreds being sold.

I guess with end game chars you're looking for uniques with LP so that might be a bit different, but I play a lot of alts so rn I don't care about LP.

English is hard but I think the rumor translates something like this: IF the rank 6 bonus is responsible for the item rolling LP it is locked to 1 LP.

Now that might be a bug? but it also might be intended, it could also be sample size. However in matters of RNG the "feel" often outweighs the "math" at least in how most people respond. Hence a thread about how people feel about the factions.

The internet is a big place. Like the last time when I said EHG did not use the CT program for two "major" patches people questioned it and my source. I did not reveal it then and I will not be doing so now, I was right then.

This time perhaps its simply human error? That is why I said I could neither conform or deny, I just explained what the rumor is. How much if any weight you put in it is up to you, but as it related to this thread even if something is not 100% accurate and triple developer confirmed true it can effect how people feel about it. Several people I know outside of the internet moved away from CoF to MG for this specific reason.

I think it goes something like this: if the item would have rolled LP without the rank 6 bonus proceed with the rest of the drop math for LP. If the item rolled LP only because of the rank 6 bonus then you get a 1LP item.

COF!! Do not have to deal with whiny merchant guild people, RMT, victims and scammers that still plague the MG! But then again rarely have to deal with FPS/Server issues too. As many of us play offline with offline chat. So COF FTW!

MG, gave me a headache all I was looking for was some idiols, gave up, now all my characters are cof.
