| It's my first thread so pardon me if I didn't see a similar one before. The frustration level has been slowly rising in my mind at the same time my character (Monk - paragon lvl 23 at the moment) has been progressing. This is gonna sound ridiculous, but I'm beginning to think Blizzard's got a grunge against me. Been playing for 200+ hours and I've found maybe 7 legendary items, 5 of them are apsolute garbage which I can't sell for over 200 k gold. Not to mention, I haven't found a single one I could use. This is not a fair drop rate, and I honestly can't believe there are so many legendaries on auction house. I'm farming everyday, act 1, act 2, act 3, act 4..you name it. On Inferno of course, monster power 5, NV 5, so the MF and GF are 269 %. And I cannot find legendaries anywhere. I don't care about gibbering gemstones, or keys from keywarden (god only knows how I got those). The game is beginning to feel very unrewarding, and my will to play it is drastically reducing. I know I'm not the only one that feels this way. I mean, some of the bosses are pretty tough to defeat on higher MP levels, for me it's the butcher, and with 269% MF and GF I get 2 incredibly average rare items, for the sixth time in a row?? How is that fair??? There should be a guaranteed much higher drop rate for defeating bosses..Not to mention those little treasure goblins, not once have they dropped something legendary..I understand that legendary items are "legendary" and therefore rare, but the reward simply isn't there for the time and effort we player put into this wonderful game. Yes, wonderful. I love Diablo 3. The world is amazing, the gameplay, the possibilities, everything. In my struggle to develop my character the best way I can, the game is not fun anymore, and it's frustrating. And I will not go to real money auction house 'cause in my opinion, that's not what gaming is about, it doesn't give everyone equal chances and possibilites. For all those who feel the same way, speak now and hopefully, Blizzard will listen. | ||

Posted by: Darius This is gonna sound ridiculous, but I'm beginning to think Blizzard's got a grunge against me. I can promise you that we do not hold a personal grudge against you, or anyone else for that matter. Legendary drops are rare and random, and although things like Paragon levels and Magic Find gear increases your chances of getting legendary drops, you are never fully guaranteed to see a certain ratio of drops. Since drops are random in this game, it is unwise to try and rely on a system that goes something along the lines of X hours played = Y number of legendary drops. Sometimes you can be lucky and get many legendary drops within a short amount of time, and at other times it can take a long while before you get any. Such is the nature of RNG... It does seem like you are having a streak of bad luck though, which understandably can be annoying when farming for legendaries. Posted by: boycottblizz You are not the first one to complain and probably won't be the last. Apparently, they are working on improving itemization right now. Even though its good news, I think It is a bit too late if you ask me. We are most definitely looking into improving itemization in Diablo III, but although these improvements might not happen over night, we are fairly optimistic that they will still be quite popular once implemented. :-) There have indeed been other players in the Diablo III community who have posted their feedback and concerns about legendary drop rates, like for an example this thread. Itemization is a hot topic in the community, so in addition to the developer journal on improving itemization that we posted recently, we are also seeking to answer some of the many questions about itemization from the community. | ||

Posted by: Jointit Start adressing some of the serious and in-depht posts on this forum instead of making cheap crowd pleasing posts. First of all, what is serious and what is cheap is rather subjective and completely in the eyes of the beholder. You may have the opinion that this thread is cheap and unworthy of a response, that is your prerogative of course, but others are of a different opinion and they think that this is an important topic that needs to be addressed. Question is, whose opinion matters the most? I try to address hot topics in the community as much and as often as possible, but I do not always have concrete or accurate information needed to address particular topics posted in "serious and in-depth" threads. Where and what I post of course depends on the nature of the topics being discussed in those threads and also whether or not the developers are ready to share information on the topics in question. As mentioned in a recent thread on the topic of blue posts, we do reply to threads whenever we have some information we can share. Since I had some information I could share in regards to this topic on itemization, I posted it. In general, if you are not satisfied with the posts that we do, please feel free to send us an email about it. In fact we would appreciate if you did so. If you feel that we really need to address any given number of "serious and in-depth" threads in particular, please do not hesitate to email us a list of said threads, and we will see if we have some information that we can post in them. But please try to avoid derailing threads with off-topic posts about where we should or should not post. Community feedback: do you have feedback about the forums, blog articles, live event presence, contests or community staff? We always appreciate such, and encourage you to send it to CMfeedback-EN@blizzard.com. Please note that while feedback mails are all read and taken into account we can’t respond to these. http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/2583878364 | ||
