Has your loot quality dropped drastically? | Forums

[DivineElfin]

I run a mission a maximum of 5 times if the targeted loot is something I am after. If not, then just once.

I try and do a few missions on each map, a stronghold and a few raid runs daily. Once I’ve don’t that I MM for Legendary. Yet to complete Legendary with randoms but I persevere.

From that I get a good mixture of loot I do and don’t need and the game play isn’t too stagnant. I’ve manage to get my gear library maxed now just getting the finishing touches to the weapons.

Loot is terrible. Needed CLIC gloves yesterday. Farmed gloves (WH area) -> purple only. Farmed CLIC (Pentagon) -> purple only. Other pieces dropped, but 99% is useless to begin with (all stats <30% on the bars).

Hey Massive: at endgame THERE SHOULD NOT EVEN BE PURPLE LOOT. Seriously WTF, you had this right in D1, why mess this up so badly in D2? A loot-based shooter that gives mostly crap loot. And it's not the first time this mistake was made either, why do you keep messing this up? Same with skills, you had that down (a bit too much even) in TU7 and now you completely undid the previous work you did. Baffling.

D2 in its current state: a loot-shooter with crap loot, bullet-sponge enemies and skill builds that are completely useless (except CC) above Hard. Solo-play gutted at higher difficulties. The game should be fun and rewarding with all builds on lower difficulties. Need to specialize on higher difficulties is fine.

And yes, I do understand that as I fill my recal library with higher stats, the chance on getting better stats decrease, that's totally not my point. 'Decent' gear pieces should drop frequently so people can play around with different builds easily. Grinding for that 'perfect' build is fine. But for the love of god, NO MORE PURPLE LOOT at endgame.

The loot has been in this state since they introduced the "you get a mod! and you get a mod! everybody gets a mod!" in the loot pool.

The dissonance of affixes on brands has been like this for 3 weeks now.

Yes rainbow attribute gear and plenty of useless mods seems to be the norm now it would seem.

Yeah and the skill gear with skill tier and then 2 red attributes and or 1 blue, it seems off the gear atm with attributes and even talents gunslinger on a wyvern piece and focus on china piece and 2 red talents and not even rolled that high.

I guess they fixed something else or tried to and ended up dialing back loot again.

Phew, was not sure to post it as posting on this forum lately can be dangerous.

But on a good note it looks like i'm not alone on this.

Good shooter, Poor looter

Yeah I've been finding mostly garbage, and the rare time I DO get a god rolled item it has like 95% of the time been D&H... literally the worst brand in the game.

This is what I am experiencing also, it is extremely annoying, I feel as though the algorithm has changed recently because everything is now rainbow loot, and I don't think it was this bad a couple weeks ago.

Especially in the DZ, spending hours in there and nothing good drops. I think because it was so good the first week they double nerfed the loot quality there.
