I probably have over 600 Rift Keys right now. I would never burn through them using them 5 at a time. Now it'll only cost 1? The only reason this is an issue is because Rift It Forward exists, and some people expect it is normal to open a Rift every 30 seconds.
The One With Everything change is weird. It's impossible for gear that's rolled Single Resistance to also roll All Resistance except for Thundergod's Vigor. The highest Single Resistance is 160. 30% of that is 48, a bit less than half of the potential that an All Resistance roll gives. They claim you will see a higher overall toughness in the end because of the DEX change without needing to gear so specifically, but if your gear happens to roll a Single Resistance, you're essentially forced to either adopt a Single Resistance of each type to balance it out appropriately and make this passive viable, or to completely drop that piece and hope you eventually reroll All Resistance for that slot on a new item.
They were the ones that made the conscious decision to make Single Resistance 60% better than All Resistance, knowing full well that they hadn't redesigned One With Everything yet, and now they're going to destroy a significant amount of high end gear. I don't think they made a statement about this change after 2.0 launched. Personally, I assumed it was a 1.0.8 issue and they were over it with 2.0, especially with the specific technicalities with secondary stats and Single Resistance rules.
