The 'treasure hunter' talent sucks.

Good times Well not so much surprise given my tragic spelling abilities, although name eneded being rather prophetic to threads success...

Then you should edit the title to redeem yourself and cleanse your soul. Or something.

I don't think it should be edited, because it correctly represented gut's stance when he created it. Besides, it'd look weird if the thread was called "The 'treasure hunter' talent is awesome", then its creator made numerous comments on why it blows on page 1

Hate to keep reviving this thread, but how great would it be to see a patch note that just says:

The "Treasure Hunter" talent has been adjusted in power

And leave it at that. He wouldn't even have to change anything. That one note could keep this thread alive for another 4 or 5 years arguing over whether it got stronger or weaker...

this forum doesn't allow thread title editing, even for mods, which I am (kinda)

PS most humerous example of this is the thread entitled 'time shitters avenue'

Haha Legendary stuff.

Oh well, this thread again, but... with no ID stairhopping (and gremlin bombs) looks like treasure hunter kicks butt even more now.

I personally have found TH to be quite a bit worse in the new version, actually, primarily because summons don't drop loot anymore. Treasure hunter has disproportionate benefits on monsters with normally low drop rates monsters like rats and jackals, so without these monsters giving huge piles of extra loot when they're summoned, I've found the effects of TH to be somewhat muted.

You still get more loot when pillaging I1-I3-I1-.... which is safest to do even with no-drops-landing (and only place that continually provides whole level new random content with no corruption) if you hunt for books. Book hunting just got more tedious I guess.

Sure, you still get more loot. But in the pre7 games I've played with TH, I've found it surprisingly unsatisfactory compared to what I'm used to. I don't hunt the ID for books except for very particular challenge games, so I can't comment on that.

I was browsing wiki activity today and stumbled on Treasure Hunter debate page, so, naturally, I decided to come here specifically to praise JellySlayer for its humor and great coverage of the topic. Nice job!

Also, i like flamy threadnaughts.
