With AC drops turned off and mixed feelings about whether it's coming back and plans relatively up in the air, I think it's fair to suggest that the Coin Detector could be a way to bring it back in a balanced way.
The old drop rates were 0.5% per enemy 5% per titan, and the coin detector doubling drops
I think if we reduced it to only from titans and at 0.5%, with the coin detector raising this to 0.5% from all enemies and 2% from titans, this would dramatically decrease how much AC is being created. I don't think AP Titans should drops coins because they drop cores, and Mount Olympus enemies should have increased AC drops from titans to emphasize the "palace of gold" that it is and encourage travel there.
Additionally, AC purchases have been doubled and that's a great step but it still feels too pricey to be able to do anything with them. If some of the AC sinks were adjusted, there would be less pressure to need a lot of AC to effectively get a boost from purchasing any to support the game.

I was actually JUST thinking about part of this. I was poking around, and seeing how much I needed before getting the scythe. Then, just to double check, looked to see how much I would need to spend to just buy my next real upgrade... 100$. For one item. I've already spent 35$, mostly because I wanted the perks - another 100$ more for one of my next items? Noooo, I think not. I love supporting games that I love, and I won't pretend that I'm never gonna buy stuff again, but I'm definitely unwilling to spend what amounts to 100$+ per item for every item that I REQUIRE to advance. Would rather farm for them, even if it takes forever.
