Has your loot quality dropped drastically? | Forums

[Oatiecrumble]

Or your head is playing tricks on you because you haven't really understood RNG. I mean no offense by that, but I've seen statements like that on the forums of every MMO I've played in the last 30+ years where loot had some form of RNG factor.
And yeah, I know, you'll just reply that "It's just RNG" surely isn't an answer because others noticed the same and your studies clearly shows so surely you must be right, but like I said, I've also seen those same replies on those other MMO forums, from people claiming the same things etc... and I very much doubt there's some secret MMO developer conglomerate plotting against loot drops.
Sorry I really do mean no offense, but like I said, seen threads like this way too many times.

Like i said before, i have played TD1 + TD2 long enough to know how things change in this game and how loot works.

You need to remember i am not basing this on my own experience but on:

• Group of 4, me and my 3 sons
• Roughly 5-7 hours of grouping each night
• Challenging (quite rare)
• Heroics (mainly this)
• Legendarys (odd days)
• Total of 20 not even closely optimized builds between us

Not a single upgrade for any of the 20 builds, just rainbow colored gear, sometimes with great rolls but still useless.

And all this started to happen since last tuesday.

Something changed on tuesday, what i don't know but something is not quite right......one thing i'm certain of it's not RNG.

Well RNG has been good to me last couple of days. Not said to brag, just to balance all negativity.
Saturday: Nemesis, Sawyer's kneepads, Tardigrade
Sunday: Chatterbox
All with decent rolls.
Let's see what today brings.

Exotics drops is not the problem, it's mainly the yellow drops that are the problem......and lets face it, exotics are horrendous, weapon wise anyway.

As it stands right now i will probably have a better chance of crafting gear.

Drop after drop after drop, all rainbow colored gear......Skill Tier + 2 Reds, Weapon Damage + 2 Yellows....etc etc

I really hate when the loot I'm looking for is stuck on a mission for a day..
If they are out in the zone CP's drop them pretty plentiful..But just about any time I get an inspiration for a build, 9 times out of 10 the brands for the backpack and chest are sitting on missions lol
I just wait it out because they are just not worth the time anymore, because sometimes it's only a couple pieces that drop in a mission..

Agree 100%

You have all focus on Exotic etc. I Just want good rolls on Brand Set and when I do a mission where the target loot is Green I expect green (with decent rolls) not just 2 pcs.in total for Four men on Heroic.

Nah I don't, actually had a few triple god rolled brand set pieces to drop too that werent rainbow'ed, and just now an almost god rolled Invisible hand dropped from a rouge, was looking for that.
I'm not saying nothing is wrong with the loot, rainbow stuff should probably not be as common as they are now for example.

I bet I was just lucky for the last couple of days..

Did the Raid & some WONY heroics during the week-end. Not even a single item worth keeping with 2 attributes at least at 50%.

Tried crafting a backpack & not a single one with 2 attributes reached 50%. Not a single one out of 40 backpacks crafted.

I've given up on crafting, it gives ridiculously low attributes every time, and I've crafted a lot.

Crafting is horrible the ranges are just not worth it.

On a side note.

There is nothing like spending time in a target loot area you want, picking up 10 pieces of green and finding out not one has a single stat/attribute worth keeping.

on the 2 pieces of blue armour the highest was 78K, yellows the highest was 5.6 skill haste and the weapon damage values went from 4.8 unto 8.3.

so that was a wasted experience.

Crates are based on normal difficulty not mission or world difficulty.

And that's a problem right there.

I'll keep repeating this: there should be NO purple loot in endgame. ZERO.
