This update would honestly be a game changer. I've had this exact scenario on previous accounts, pull an early enhanced, you're locked not only needing to get shards for armour, but also to corrupt the bow/blade. This would actually give a lot of sanity for people to break up the grind while going for corrupted/blessed quiver. Huge support from me.
I absolutely love the concept of unique accounts like this! I think if you were to do a series on this, that you'd likely get great feedback. Personally I'd run a HC but that's just personal
