Not really over per say, just that the drops are random so if the person before you gets a gold, you might get a grape. I guess its more annoying than anything. But it seems to stop everyone from stoppin and waiting for some poor soul to test the chest

I have a job, earn about 100$ per day and buy 1000k for that money...

No seriously, there are enough ways to farm with the nerfs.

Find a good, fun farm run you like, and stick to it. Try not to buy weapons or armor you don't need anyway.

I've played Nightfall for the last week (1 hour or so a day) and I've made roughly 15k just by playing the game. And I've just entered the Vabbi area.

@those who claim they get enough money (and even extra) just by "playing the game".

Do I have to assume that you didn't bother to buy runes and weapons for ALL of your heroes like I am trying to do? Because I found that terribly drains my budget, and I really couldn't have done it if I hadn't had some savings from "farming" (modestly) in the previous campaigns..

I roughly made as much money by playing the game. My heroes are equipped with either my own stuff (I'm talking about my main char, a ranger, with a bunch of weapons, unused most of the time, for the many builds I can play: hammer, staffs, shield, +5e sword, etc.) or with collector weapons or with cheap but good greens. I gave them the runes I found: I only bought a few of them, those I really needed (sup death for my MM for example), and I'll keep giving them the runes and insignias I find.
