Make Artifact of Origin more worth the journey.

    The Artifact of Origin is really underwhelming for how hard it is to get. It just slightly increases the difficulty of runs. I think that every invasion after the first should have more vanguards, for example, 1st wave has 1 vanguard, 2nd has two, etc.
    I also think that it should spawn a ton of small imps and possibly even overlords. What do you guys think?

      I think that what you're saying is a great suggestion, as having it scale up with time (and therefore difficulty) would make it more threatening.

      I like it in its current state, however, as unexpectedly interrupting massive firefights or even Providence itself is amazing.

      In any case, yeah. It would be neat to have it be more difficult to deal with, but perhaps also with a better reward (guaranteed red-tier item?).

        It might also be cool if the invasions would meet resistance. Spawn a ton more imps, but then maybe some of Providence's elite Temple Guards spawn to meet the invaders. Whoever wins the ensuing battle is coming for you next.

            I think it would be interesting if a weakened providence + temple guards attacked each time with the super imp (of course with new abilities and way more hp) replaced providence.

              Also adding an element of unpredictability would be nice. So not exactly every 10 minutes, but every 8-12 minutes would make it scarier, because you can't really prepare yourself for it.

                Yea, make something fight them, otherwise its there to give you a heart attack the first time and free stuff any other time.
                I got it by engineer cheesing with friends, cant imagine doing it myself.
