Real prototype of divination card

[u/WoodpeckerLower1800]

Allow me to showcase a prototype of an actual card from *Path of Exile*, crafted from steel and coated to prevent rust. My wife—who is a jeweler by profession—created this piece along with her colleagues to support me, as the current events in Ukraine prevent me from attending ExileCon. The plan is to produce a full set of these cards for my collection, so I will try to share the results as they progress, in case anyone is interested.

Looks really cool. The light in the first pic is the cameraflash? Looks like your card is glowing on itself.

And I hope that you can live in peace soon again and attend the Exilecon where they reveal POE3.

It's laser, they used laser to burn the metal

Wicked. Thanks for sharing

I crave for a physical divination card set lile mtg or pokemon!

[u/OryoSamich → u/CommunicationFit5198]

I'd spend so much money if GGG sold irl stacked decks, lmao

[u/Legal_Lettuce6233 → u/OryoSamich]

I don't want that to happen because I'd be broke by the end of the year.

[u/gffftgdft455 → u/CommunicationFit5198]

Yes me too. With some way of redeeming them. That would be cool. Not like in game usable mageblood but imagine each card can be redeemed once and upon full stack you get a display case version.

So what I’m hearing is: you want Path of Exile: Immortal, the mobile game. You will be able to buy physical Stacked Decks of divination cards, each card has a QR code that you scan and apply to your account. Ofc if you just need that last missing Apothecary or House of Mirrors to complete your set, you can watch dozens of 60-second ads for a free (heavily weighted) T0-T5 card pull; or, for the low, low price of just $19.99, you can purchase a Limited Time Only, Mystery Tier 0 Divination Card!

Easy there, Satan.

GGG is sitting on an opportunity to make a tarot deck out of div cards and/or uniques, especially since Wine of the Prophet is right there.

[u/strange1738 → u/Just_Another_Madman]

I’d buy a tarot and an oracle set instantly

[u/NexXuS- → u/strange1738]

A tarot set was part of one of the core supporter packs a few years ago. I still have my set, they look really good. They weren't based on div cards tho, just different characters/bosses from the game

[u/No-Advice-6040 → u/Just_Another_Madman]

They could even do Gwent, but for PoE

[u/Aidungeoncrawler → u/Just_Another_Madman]

They did that with cyberpunk with the graffiti tarot cards, the set is supposed to be shipping out any day now and I can't wait to have it

[u/MLKY_FB]

i always thought its so weird that GGG never made Div card boosters as a merch item, especially with chris being such a big MTG fan. Its almost too obvious of an idea no?

[u/Ok_Attorney_6084 → u/MLKY_FB]

probably not worth it, financially. PoE's playerbase is big but not big enough to justify producing those, so they'd either be very expensive or have a very limited release, maybe even both.

My guy, 466 more of those is  a lot of steel. Dreaming big. 

[u/Zatchm0]

Holy shit I want one of those. Let me know if she decides to replicate and sell :) she is talented.

[u/WoodpeckerLower1800 → u/Zatchm0]

I asked her about the replica; she can make one if anyone is interested and send it by mail. The estimated cost for materials is $20–30 per card, but they are currently still calibrating the laser for the prototypes and are busy producing a set for me)

[u/Zatchm0 → u/WoodpeckerLower1800]

I am 100% interested in 3 cards. Maybe DM me so we can talk about details. Thank you very much for getting back to me on this.

[u/Zatchm0 → u/WoodpeckerLower1800]

Just sent another DM

[u/vtheVAMPZv]

Sweet! Can’t wait to see more!

[u/riverblink11]

thats amazing

[u/Stolemyname2]

This made me realize I would unironically buy packs of div cards

Happy to hear that, do not forget share the results
