Re: Way to low drop rate for yellows.

The big issue is this is the 2nd nerf to drops. And the group that suffers ain’t those who hit 30in 1-2 days but those of us that have just got there or getting close, we can’t put in the huge hours to grind for A decent master item let alone a legendary.

 

So so for those that have a ton already good for you well done in grinding end game so well that you’ve caused the devs to nerf the rest of us.

No legendarys minus the pre order bonus even after 80 hours of play, which doesn’t work either. Refill my shield when using the entire clip? I think not. Not once has it worked like it’s supposed to.

I have yet to get an legendary since the first time they did the loot drop rate buff then nerf.

In the same boat as you MightMouse. Haven't seen any legendary for the last 20 hours of gameplay, only farming Strongholds and freeplay. I really hope that this will be adressed tomorrow by the devs!

No. Stop. This kind of mentality turns it into Destiny / Diablo 3. They are legendary for a reason, and don't need to be changed. If you want Legendary equipment, grind it out like the rest of us. I have 90+ hours and only have 6, and I'm perfectly happy. It's this sort of mentality that leads to the game being dumbed down and nerfed to where a complete child could beat it.

Good for you timp2700, I’ve had 1 pre patch.

I agree legendary should be hard but masters should be easier, purples are pure salvage too me now so after 3 hours of free play 7+ events and a couple of titans my backpack is full of purples a couple of blues and nothing else I just gave up and watched the last few episodes of Russian Doll. 

 

Hey zot read what people want not what you think they want. Also guess which group will hang around and pay for this game if they get the loot drop right.

If drop rate is such an issue, gear your javelin to have luck inscriptions. There's already an answer for your problem within the game itself, and you're reporting a common mechanic, that isn't bugged, as a bug.

 

I don't know what to tell you. Play GM1 and up, and the gear drop rate goes up. Yeah, I've had days where I get masterworks rained on me, and even two legendary items in the same instance. It's a matter of luck. Other days, I've played all day and seen no MWs and no legendary items. You know what I did? Kept playing.

Also, if you're farming for items in freeplay, read the tool tips from the loading screen.

Xp = Missions
Loot = Strongholds
Freeplay = Resources

The only way you're going to get ANY good loot in the other two is if :
1. Legendary Contract (Purple Icon for Contracts)
2. Support Luck% stat.
