Version history

Version Changes
3.20.0
  • Clarified 3.17 drop location information: Vaal Side Areas and Lab Trials of level 80+. [Verified on Divcord This information has been verified by players on Divcord, the divination card discovery Discord server. Actual undocumented changes to drop locations may have occurred in a previous patch.]
3.17.0
  • The Shortcut Divination Card now awards a Quicksilver Flask of the Cheetah, with an item level of 100. It now only drops in Maps at level 80 and above.
  • This card's drop level requirement was changed. [Undocumented This change was not documented by any official sources. It was discovered through player testing or datamining.]
  • Drop weightings and minimum area levels for the vast majority of cards have not been changed, but drop weightings for a very small number of cards have been reduced in cases where the number of maps they're available from has greatly increased.
  • A longstanding bug in the code determining area level restrictions for some divination card drops has been fixed. This means that cards intended to have a high area level requirement (mostly ones that grant item level 100 items) will no longer fluctuate wildly in availability from league to league.
3.16.0
3.15.0
  • The "of Adrenaline" Flask Suffix now has 6-8% increased Movement Speed during Flask effect (previously 20-30%).
3.14.0
  • Introduced to the game.

Notes

  1. When version 3.16.0 was initially released, the Shortcut incorrectly showed that it could be exchanged for a Quicksilver Flask of Adrenaline.[3][4] This was corrected in a subsequent hotfix.
