Your post and replies are giving me a headache.
- Overthrow chests are getting BUFFED (buff = good, as you mentioned)
This is a good thing, for everyone who actively plays the game. Do overthrows, get exotics. Simple.
- Regular pale heart chests are getting nerfed
This makes it less beneficial for people using macros to do so. Why bother setting up a macro if you're hardly getting any exotics, right?
I fail to see the issue here from your point of view. Realistically once this update is out you should see a lot more exotics than you used to? Like this is actually a good thing for you..

Don't Nerf Normal Chests. -You're welcome

You could get a class item every 15-20 minutes running around opening [i]any[/i] chest in pale heart. That is being nerfed… so no matter how they try to spin it, it’s a nerf. And it doesnt even do anything to people afk farming… they still dont have to do anything but set up the macro… they are still getting items, so really it is a moronic attempt at a nerf. It’s amazing how easily brainwashed people are now-a-days.

Never said it wasn't a nerf, to the regular chests that is. Have you seen the posts in this thread? They're complaining about this as if it only affects console players, and are completely neglecting the buff to the overthrow chests. We can't know yet whether or not it will make up for it, but the way it reads we should see similar rates if not even better than they used to be. Time will tell, of course.

[quote]This makes it less beneficial for people using macros to do so. Why bother setting up a macro if you're hardly getting any exotics, right? ..[/quote] Wrong. The people using macros will still use them, they'll just get less drops than they did before, but they'll still do it because it's zero effort. They can leave their PC running while they sleep or work or whatever and still get drops. Meanwhile, your average player that used to run around collecting chests just as an aside to whatever else they were doing are now also going to get less, but wait, there's more. Those people can now spend more time to complete Overthrows to get the same rewards. It's not a buff and it's not exactly a nurf, but it's also not a great solution. Typical Bungo logic. I honestly think they came up with this idea to keep people in the game longer because there's not a lot else keeping them engaged.

Edited by penguida: 7/30/2024 1:29:48 PMDidn't say macros would stop entirely, but it is an attempt at the very least at fixing it. So the players who actively play won't suffer as much, and it'll be less beneficial for those using macros. We can't know for sure what the rates will be like from the overthrow chests in the update, but the way it reads we should see similar rates, potentially even better. Seems like people will complain either way, with no facts to back it. And that was the point of my post here, to at the very least try and reason with someone who's completely 'anti-pc, console players have it so hard, this is just a nerf and nothing but a nerf and I will not listen to reason or anyone who says otherwise' when we very clearly have no idea yet just how good or bad the buff to the overthrow chests will be yet. Like I said in another comment, time will tell.

Agreed, time will tell. I still think it's a bad idea and there are way better solutions, but apparently Bungo in all their great wisdom thinks this is the best path to take. Their game, their rules, I suppose. If they had of made it a little easier to farm to start with none of this would be needed, but ya know, again, Bungo 🤷
