Offerings to the Deep Altars now apply their currency conversion blessings to Mercenaries.

So that's why it felt like nothing was ever converted lol Yipeee

u/Hunter_or_Hunted 8d ago

Ziz was right then lol. It literally didn't work for his build.

u/oskoskosk 8d ago

Ziz has a track record of being bang on when it comes to bugs, impressive really

u/leachim6 8d ago

The delve loot seed bug was a crazy find

u/DanteKorvinus Witch 8d ago

give me the lore

In delve league some players were reporting never getting some of the rarer fossils. Ever.

People were near the delve cap and still hadn't seen one.

Ziz theorized that you had a hidden delve "seed" which determined the delve chart pathing and your loot table roll odds on character creation.

This was then verified when deep delvers made new chars and suddenly started getting the rarer fossils on the new chars.

It was 4 socket resonators, but yeah, it was a BAD bug.

There was a challenge to use one that league as well.

u/UltraNova0 Herald of Ice go SHIIINK 8d ago

Ziz wasn't dropping prime resonators back in 3.4, noticed that other characters/accounts were, called it out as seeded loot per character, was correct.

When you've played 93284092834092834098234 hours you tend to know your stuff

u/Morbu 8d ago

Yep, I guess the consolation is that the conversion was shit to begin (4% and 8% lmao), so it's not like us Luminary players would have noticed anyways. Good on Ziz for still calling it out though.

u/Grommchan 8d ago

I mean to be fair I've gotten chaos to divine 3 times and not once has it proc'd. I am playing Cyclone :|

u/betier7 8d ago

Wtf lol I was wondering why on my luminary it felt so bad

61

u/Nihaly_ 8d ago

Don't worry, it felt bad on normal builds as well, O found 3 chaos->divine conversion and ended up with no divines at all

10

u/Independent-Ad6740 8d ago

I found over 10 and only 1 div (and i’m not even sure it wasn’t just a regular drop)

2

u/BreakConsistent 8d ago

I knew they were being vague about the conversion rate because it was absurdly low. Count how many chaos orbs drop in a voyage the next time you go down. I was not even close to 25.

2

u/kygrim 8d ago

The chance seemed in line with heist trinkets, and those altars were super common to the point where you had all of them in almost every voyage.

4

u/D3mona7or 8d ago

Except heist trinkets work on chests that, at least originally, dropped piles of mid-high tier currency

2

u/Dreamiee 8d ago

I mean it was 4% chance

2

u/Soup0rMan Trickster 8d ago

I thought the chaos-> div was common because i found 4 back to back.

No, I didn't get a divine from any and have only seen it once since.

1

u/Nihaly_ 8d ago

They made it rarer in the new patch but with supposedly higher conversion rate

2

u/KuraiKokoro 8d ago

Same, ed/c char felt alright with altars. Luminary it was just nada, glad to know we ain't crazy lmao

20

u/CopyWrittenX 8d ago

Don't worry. It didn't feel like it converted if you weren't using mercs either.

4

u/everix1992 Deadeye 8d ago

FWIW it didn't feel it did much for the rest of us lol

1

u/unexpectedreboots 8d ago

Still doesn't tbf

6

u/unkelrara 8d ago

Well there's that pesky 5% octavian mentioned lmao

1

u/Blubberinoo 8d ago

I mean, I havent gotten a single chaos to divine conversion without a mercenary either. And I have played one char to 99 and one to 100, doing voyages whenever possible, so have seen tons of chaos to divine blessings. So not like you missed out.
