Early adopters always get things others do not. Unless someone is saying a game should never change.

If you really do not want this to impact elixirs that much, how about make the hat only 5-10% increase in luck vs. 25% for the cheaper luck elixir? Maybe it's already pretty low compared to elixirs.

You'd still have to farm a lot and it's possible if poeple don't see the re-roll very much, people would change the hat out periodically.

A HIDE VANITY option would also be cool.
