Pay the oracle!! https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=11592.msg142435#msg142435

Poor oracle giving out her/his services for free!! but no, my idea isn't that you have to pay the oracle for your daily spin..

My idea is being able to pay the oracle to tell you what your next FG will be. No idea what the cost should be but it made me think that being able to do that would give the opportunity to actually start making Specific Fg killer decks instead of having just one fg killer deck that kills some fgs and skipping the rest.

To be clear after re-reading that, yes i know she tells you anyways i mean being able to go back and paying her after each fg battle. 

Would this be a bit overpowered and up for abuse? mm probably but maybe someone could come up with a better idea to encourage people to make more decks for specific fg's instead of just relying on the same fg killer deck and skipping half the fights.

Anyways just a thought! (seem to be full of those today :O)

Actually, I think it's a great idea!
As long as the cost is high enough (100 electrum maybe?), I think it would be a very nice way to promote diversifying your FG farming decks.
To clarify, paid uses of the oracle after the first per day ONLY provide FG info; no nymph chance, critter, money, card, etc.

You would want to make the cost so high that it will only make your FG farming slightly more efficient if you do it well.

The main point is that FG farming will be much more FUN!
Wouldn't you love to use your knowledge, and to have a deck built specifically to kick that )&@$ing dark matter's @$$?!

I like this idea. I think it would encourage more strategy instead of using rainbow decks all the time. I was about ready to come in here and say no extra spins to win nymphs, but this is something I have no problem with.

So long as you can't rig which false god you will face, I think it's an okay idea, but it could be abused pretty easily.

Agreed. There would have to be a limit on how many timesa day you could do this.
This is an awesome idea.

Oh, how about you can go back to the oracle to get a reading on the next FG (after the first free one) if you sacrafice something nifty, like rare weapons and upp'ed cards!
