Ultimately as part of encompassing the event for all players we need to be able to maintain the balance for items and their rate of introduction to the economy from different angles. This is why certain items like Breezaga and Tarlok's Imbued Chests are rare, so as not to trivialize the content immediately.

Thanks everyone for the feedback that's helped shape this event into something fun for all!
This is pretty flawed logic considering even if you made him drop 5-10 and gave him 100% drop rate farming portals would in the end be faster. considering tarlok gives 40 a go. even if it was a 100% drop rate for frost fiend with 5 tokens. I can farm goblin for 2 hours after i buy a tarlok portal (idk if you fixed it) but will i? No. 8 tokens a run is a waste of my time. that means id have to do 50 runs for 400 tokens. not even enough to buy the vanity and im sacrificing my sanity because goblins probably the most annoying boss out of them all (Not including the knight. Knight makes me cry )



edit: just to be clear im not complaining about the update. i guess getting 1 or 2 tokens is better then nothing. then again i farm elite and theres nothing more frustrating than running forest of shades and running to boss while having about 10 blue mages and 15 vegetable dog things and suddenly i get hit by a ice ball and i slow down and insta die. then im either forced to pay plat or deal with running back only to get ice balled and repeat.
