Consider Decreasing Map Offering Rarities Since Their Nerf

Map Offerings, if they are so unlikely to do almost anything, shouldn't be so rare, in my opinion.

I have spent over 50 Ichorous Loam offerings trying to get the new Fallen Refuge map to get the new achievement, and I only got the new map 2 times out of all of those uses.

Map offerings grant a 1-in-5 max chance of being sent to a specific realm, and even then there's no way to control which maps within that realm you'll be sent to.

I think Map Offerings could be more common if they're this unguaranteed to do anything.

(Additionally, with only a 20% chance I think the wording on the Offering should change from "Tremendously increases the chance" to "Slightly increases the chance")

    Would be a great opportunity to declutter the junk on bloodweb. Move the map offerings to brown, get rid of all the garbage brown offerings that you'd never use and let the map offerings take their place as blood web filler and hte massively overinflated blue category gets shrunk down.

    I still think map offerings should just be removed.

    They aren't that useful now on average since they usually don't work, but in a way, when you play against a map offering that DOES work it feels even worse than it did before because not only do you know you were put at a significant disadvantage from the start, you ALSO know that you lost an 80% chance to not get that map anyway. Since the changes, I've still played against a few map offerings on both sides that have succeeded and every single time when I see the results screen and see the offering it genuinely just feels awful. I feel like they really don't have any place in the game (either side being able to influence map selection is just unhealthy) and getting rid of them would also help lower how many junk offerings there really are in the bloodwebs.

    The Brown BP offerings 100% need to go. So much pointless clutter. I don't even care if BHVR compensates us with BP, they are useless and it would be nice to get more useful browns in the bloodweb.
