As they were before, they weren’t really worth the effort. Now they seem like a totally lost cause. Hopefully they’ll measure the effect of these changes on player participation and rebalance them again.

They were definitely worth the effort before if you were specifically going for the Mysterious Chests. Now those have been boosted in cost, it may be less worthwhile.

That being said, uniques can now drop from Helltide chests, and drop rates for non-Mysterious chests have been increased so it might be a zero-sum change.
