Ive owned a v2 Prophecy for sometime now and it has worked great. even with paint that has been sitting at my house for a while. Simple to clean, Easy to disassemble, and reliable.
Compared to other Loaders it is great for the price.
The only small gripe i have is that if your not much of a techy of some sort you might get confused on how to programing it.

Empire ProphecyI had a first gen prophecy which had some issues to be worked out. I also didnt like the shells busting all the time. Otherwise, not a bad loader.

I purchased my empire prophecy when they first came out. It is an extremely lightweight and reliable hopper. The only negative I have ever experienced with my prophecy was the feedneck started to crack shortly after purchase. I contacted Empire and they quickly sent me new/improved shells and I never had a problem again. Updated version of the prophecy now come with a metal sleeve to reinforce the feedneck. After I got the new shells I never had any sort of problem ever again. This hopper has been the most reliable hopper I have ever owned.

I was not 100% happy with my prophecy as it was hard to put all the pieces back together so they would fit perfectly.
It fed slower than my B2, but obviously had the benefit of being easier to clean whenever paint was splattered on the inside of the loader.
Overall it's a decent loader, but the revamped Z2 would be the one to go with.

Used a prophecy for probably a dozen events. Tons of practices. It jammed less than the v1 rotors I used, however the plastic on it ended up snapping at a cfoa one event. I just bought a new side piece and all was well.

Empire ProphecyI've had my prophecy for about a year, and it's been great. The only problem I've had is indoor. Sometimes, with all the commotion and noise, the prophecy will choke up when feeding.

- Paint captacity. The Prophecy out of the box can hold about 240 paintballs. This is with the standard nose.
- Paint captacity options. With the Prophecy, you can buy two seperate noses. A 200 round captacity nose, and a 280 round captacity nose. Even though they are 20$ each, it is great to have the option of how much paint you want to take on the field. The 240 round nose comes stock.
-Lightweight. The Prophecy is very light. I have not noticed a difference in weight from my Vlocity loader.
-Adjustibility. The Prophecy is able to be tweaked and tuned to your settings. It is not needed, as out of the box it is perfect, but if you are a tinkerer, this is for you. You can adjust speed, sound sensativity, the magnet configuration, stack monitoring, and your activation mode.
-Rf capabilitys. The Prophecy is able to be RF'ed to your gun for max speeds and great consistency.
-Tooless dissasembly. The Prophecy needs no tools to be taken apart.
-Fast and consistent. The Prophecy loader is a very fast and consistent loader. At the field today I was able to rip a consistent 23 BPS in the range. This was with speed setting 6, with the stock magnet configuration. If I adjusted the magnet configuration, I probably could have gotten it to go faster.
-Rip drive. The Prophecy comes with a nice, small rip drive. This helps in clearing out jams, and helps if you run out of batterys mid game.
-Ease of programming. The Prophecy is VERY easy to program. I learned how to program it in around two minutes or so.
-Giant magnetic lid. The lid opening on the Prophecy is huge. I am able to stick my whole hand in it. This allows for easy feeding, without lots of spill.
-Lack of popcorning. The Prophecy does not popcorn as much as other loaders. I would say it is comparable to a Pinokio in this area.
-Small and Low profile. The Prophecy sits extremely low on my GEO and my Mini. The loader is also incredibly small. With the standard 240 round nose, it is smaller than a Halo B or a Reloader B. However, with the small 200 round nose, it is just as small as the Dye Rotor.
-Durability. The Prophecy is a VERY durable loader. It comes with a reinforced feedneck, and is made out of a new, strong material, that rarely cracks or breaks. Yes, there were some people who had first run issues with the feednecks breaking, and I was one of them. However, that problem is fixed already, and if you don't have a first run shell, chances of the shell breaking on you are VERY small.
Cons:
-Alignment of the shells. On my Prophecy, it is extremely hard to align the shells correctly when putting it back together. I am talking about the side shells, not the front nose. It takes some time getting used to aligning it correctly.
-Price. For some, 150$ may be a lot to spend on a loader.
Conclusion:
Overall, the Prophecy is a GREAT loader. It is lightweight, low profile, consistent, easy to program, easy to clean, and more. The only reason why it got a four in reliability is because when I was putting paint through the Prophecy yesterday, the drive belt came out of place, causing the loader not to feed, and the rip drive not to work. However, this was fixed with no problem, since the loader is extremely easy to take apart. Again, it is a great loader, and I totally recommend it.
EDIT: It turns out the right shell was not defective. I had made a huge mistake. However, when we thought it was defective, Simon, and KEE Action sports did an AMAZING job at helping me out.

I've had my prophecy since just after release, and put it through the paces in the worst conditions. It keeps up and has no issues with any I've ever had it on. It's a great loader, and hasn't had any significant issues. As Typical with any loader I've had it jam with terribly out of round paint. I've also had the shells break at the feedneck which isn't uncommon for loaders.
That said I'd recommend the prophecy as they are a solid performer and durable at a great price.
