I like the token idea. I think it would work if Bet on Boss had a high price (~100 gold), but the cost was refunded if you win, with this refund being in addition to the increased trophy value. That way, it's an actual gamble with a good prize but a stiff penalty for failure.

Me too. I never liked losing purist to it. Also I found it weird that taking a bet wasn't very 'gambly', no risk, just guaranteed reward.
And if boosting gold gain the way Sidestepper suggested was too good, it could come with a little boost to the bosses to make it more interesting.

^ This is true, if you go on a long streak of bet on boss runs and then suddenly remember you have patches, in game gold and the subdungeon available as preps and start actually using them, you notice that you're more powerful than you were.

If you're just going purist everywhere, then yeah, it's just more gold per run. Which is why making it a token isn't exactly great as it lets you stack it with thief preps or just have a chance to get purist if you prep it meaning people would prep it on every run.

My original idea was that it made sense only if there were more tokens, which may or may not have been doable...

As others have noted, the real cost is the lack of other Thieves Guild preps - I kind of don't see the need for it to go with purist tbh, given that playing purist you're saving on any prep costs anyway.

I would like a modificator like

If you win this dungeon, you will get 150 more gold. If you lose, you will lose 150 extra gold.

This way it wouldnt be prepped everytime and would be completely independent of thief preps
