Dowsing Rod (Abundance) should be removed from multiplayer
Dowsing Rod is generally a pretty bad Neow relic but in multiplayer it's literally unpickable. Not only do you not get the free relic in multiplayer (for those that don't know, the 5th "?" room is always a chest if you take Dowsing Rod) but you force all players to go through 5 "?" rooms while only one player gets a reward.
Because of this Dowsing Rod should be removed from multiplayer. I don't think a quest that forces all players to do it but only rewards one player has any place in co-op. The only solution I can think of would be to give everyone [[Abundance]] (and [[Dowsing]] of course) even though only one person picked the boon, similar to how Golden Compass works, but that I think would be too strong instead since everyone else gets 2 Neow relics.
What are y'alls opinion on this?
