| "We know that drop rates aren't exactly where we want them right now and it's very important to us to get as much feedback as possible during our beta. We are going to adjust the legendary drop rates via hotfix so that you guys have as much time as possible to test and give us feedback on how the changes feel, also more time for us to compile data and get RoS to be the best it can be." Does this affect the ptr also or is it only to beta player and if it does, will it mean that when 2.0 hit live we will all have !@#$ drops till we buy ros??? Just asking because im really nervous bout the drop rate and i've been looking on these topics for quite some time now so if someone or even a blue could clarifie this for me i'd be happy to know. | ||

| When drop rates for Legendary items are increased it will be for the beta and PTR. We're looking forward to having you all test it out, and letting us know what you think! | ||

"When" is the keyword. Hence, it's not happened yet, so cool your shorts. Just posted this in another thread, but figured I'd hop in here for visibility too. Pardon the repetition. :) No ETA to share at the moment as to when the hotfix will go live. It needs to be implemented, tested, and then deployed, and all three of those steps can take different, sometimes varying periods of time to complete depending on the type of hotfix. We'll update these threads once it's live, though: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/10895929630 http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/10895929629 [Post edited one time, last edit by Lylirra at January-23-2014 5:19 PM PST (9 years ago)] | ||

Grammar Police detected an error. Will it fix the level requirement thing? No, the hotfix in question will only affect Legendary drop rates, as called out in the threads I linked. The bug related to the Reduced Level Requirement affix rolling too frequently is a known issue, but I believe will require a patch to address (it's not currently slated for a hotfix). And fixed. :P | ||

This drop rate applies to PTR too? Yup. That's why it's included in this thread in the PTR forum (which only includes hotfixes that will apply to the PTR): http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/10895929629 | ||

If someone actually cracked the whip over there like a professional executive director should, these three steps should not have to take "unpredictable" periods of time to complete. You're actually correct. Changed "unpredictable" to "varying" (since it's more accurate) and added a clarification that the length of time can depend on the hotfix itself and what it's addressing.

| As an update for everyone, the Legendary drop rate hotfix is live for both PTR and beta. Threads have been updated: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/10895929630 http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/10895929629 | ||

There is no difference for beta and PTR server if i remember correct. All share same server. Correct. There's only one PTR/Beta server. NA/EU/KR/TW/LatAm/ANZ players in the PTR/Beta are all playing together right now. So, yes. Technically the hotfix is live for EU. ;) | ||
