I use the Prismaric Orb in a couple teams and would appreciate people not mentioning how good it is. Would hate to see it end up in a purchasable bundle again :x ---

It got whacked back in December, I think; people complained mightily back then. Unlikely to have its power re-lowered any time soon. ---

My point is, there is a cycle to these things… Week 1 People discuss how good something is. Week 2 People discuss how broken something is. Week 3 People complain that they don’t have the something. Week 4 The something is available in a bundle that can be bought for real money. Week 5 The something is nerfed. December was sad times… #neverforget ---

This makes sense and i have noticed this but did not connect it to a pattern ---

No it doesn’t. This isn’t at all how it works. There’s sales every week for all kinds of stuff and occasionally things get nerfed when they’re deemed OP, after much discussion. The two are in no way connected. ---

Thats one of the reasons for all those Troubles after Nerfs. Best Greets 😉 [Previous page](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/goodbye-prismatic-orb/1742.md?page=4)
