Rollback before the Legendary essence/dust

[Hamsterino]

I personally like this system. With amount of players that we have now, it helps to keep economy alive. Also before the update looting some legendaries were meaningless. You would play normal more for fun, now every legendary could be used.

I wonder how many new players joins the game. But if you are new and you get loot now, you can build your character easier by destilling item if needed.

I would agree to that some recipes might need to updated. For instance, eastern blade is 4 essences, I would believe 2-3 would be enough.

The amount of players seems to be decreasing every day, which will result in less overall loots, which in return will make essences even more expensive, since they're rarer.
Looting a dragon axe from a normal run as a rich person: After the update, it saves me one out of the nine essences I need (alongside a dark offering) to upgrade an elegy. Before the update, I couldn't use the dragon axe (it's like I didn't loot at all), but I could upgrade an elegy for just the dark offering. I don't think this one needs any explanation.
Looting a dragon axe from a normal run as a poor person: After the update, I can distill it into a single essence, which I can *maybe* trade for another legendary that distills into one essence, but maybe not even that. Also, the only items that are realistically available at essence value are: dragon sword (probably not), fang, fell edge and worm bane. The only real use you can make of it is sell the essence and buy a house crafted weapon with the gold. Before the update, I was stuck with the dragon axe as well, I could *maybe* trade it for like 500k. However, before the update, 500k got you a lot closer to a good (or usable, for that matter) weapon than the single essence does now (I'm talking about 500k steel stinger, 1mil dragon breath, 2mil legacy etc.).
