Santar #1559 | Loot drops too tailored to playstyle? Bug?(1) | Category: ConsoleAugust-28-2014 1:58 PM PDT (10 years ago) |
So I switched from using 1 handed weapons and a shield to a two handed weapon on my barbarian and now all the weapons the game seems to drop for me are two handed. I haven't seen a good one handed weapon drop since I started using large weapons, and i haven't seen a single shield drop at all. Is this how the games loot system is supposed to work? If so that's pretty boring if you ask me, a big part of the fun is for the unexpected to drop. |

The specific weapons (or off hand items) you're currently using has no bearing on the variety of items that drop in the game, so swapping to a 2-handed weapon will not result in a decreased chance of 1-handed weapons or shields dropping. What you're experiencing is purely coincidental, but certainly happens. Personally, I've gone through several streaks where a particular item (or item type) seems to drop much more frequently than anything else. |

But for interests sake, does the item quality of the gear you have on have any affect on the slot a legendary will drop for? It doesn't, but it sounds like a well timed lucky streak. Well, presuming you find something to use. Like in my case, all I need is a ring and all thats dropping appears to be rings. I wish I had that turn of fortune! I've been hunting for an amulet since the beginning, and still have a very well rolled rare in that slot. |
