Either way, I don't think this item is anywhere near the greatness of the other items in level 3 ruins. Even at +100, it'd take 10 turns before you get 1,000 gold. I'd rather just have the 1,000 up front.
Although, I'm not completely against having a rotten apple (sort of speak) for each ruin level. I actually thought about making a cursed ring as my item where it was stuck on the Hero's hand and gave -3 group Chaos
