-depends on the riven

-it's easier to farm than oxium / nitain extract / (in cases where you are actually trying to farm it) cryotic

... the problem with rivens:

they never update the disposition (already good or 'now good after buffs' weapons are further OPed) ... really needs rolling updates, they could even automate it. And the new disposition SHOULD affect the previously rolled stats. THAT'S how you get players to change it up.

there's no middle step to progression (the end goal is the only goal; if you want a riven with a,b,c you have to go through the entire alphabet hoping for RNG that never gets better)

if you get a poor drop your choices are turn it into something you could have farmed in 10 minutes or trash it (don't bother fusing them - that's a complete waste, moreso than trashing)

cost to have more than the base amount (i get why this one is, but it still feels bad man)

some people are willing to pay way too much, so sellers jack their prices up and reasonable (not even op) rivens are near impossible for a casual player to access (basing this off my step father who is MR 14 after 3 months and finally unlocked almost everything - it'll be 4-5 years before he can even think of earning enough plat in-game to get a half decent riven by trade)
