Legendary drop rate now :/

[Biribinha]

Well... the new annointment system is cool and all...

BUT, what am I going to use there if I can't drop a single legendary! not even in M10 or M11
Jesus Christ, this is insane how low it got now.
Anyone having this issue as well?

It's a compensation: easy to get the annoint you want, hard to get the legendary you need.. It makes sense..

That said, only the world drops should be affected.. Well, the patch notes said that..

The game has turned into eridium farming sim instead of an actual loot and shoot.

Let's see how this is going to proceed

This. My interest in playing is pretty much gone now.

Just a fun fact I was farming eridium on Warden before this patch and I got 11 Legendaries...
9 was on the arena and 2 i saw falling off the arena... I'm going to miss that

yesterday i did slaughter shaft and got about 30 legendaries items for each run as i was leveling to 65, today i did it and got 3, and 2 of those was from the titan. I have lootplosion on. I don't know if this is how it is meant to be or if I had a bad run. But the legend drop rate fell by 90%.

Same, played Solo through "Circle of Slaughter" at 65 - M10. Mini Map was obscured by orange stars. I recon easy 35+ legendaries. It is a real shame at 66 - M10/M11 it seems like only 2 guns are worth using. Sandhawk and Flipper. Anything else is just trash.

Drop rate for legendaries is way too high and when they drop 95% of the legendaries are just garbage.

I wish M11 played like arms race as far as the balance of gear is concerned where even with green and blue weapons you can have a chance and purple / legendaries kick ass.

Sounds like you're getting a good drop rate on legendaries. Is that even after the update?

[EthanKai]

i doubt anyone wanted a 90% nerf

[EthanKai]

The only people that would think a 90% nerf is good are people that already have the legendaries they want.

No one who was complaining that the drop rates were to high is going to be selling their entire inventory and bank stash so they can have the joy to go farm legendaries at 1/10th the drop rate.

There is no way this is better.

is the drop rate higher or lower than BL2?

imo the drop rate felt just right in BL2, so that's probably the best way to measure where it should be ideally

The problem with BL3 is that annointments play too much of a role in gear, so being able to reroll anointments on gear with good parts is what I prefer tbh

[EthanKai]

well i just started TVHM at level 65 with Mayhem at 11, and everything was on. Kill the first mini boss Shiv who dropped nothing but white weapons. So i'm going to say, at the moment, much, much lower.

[xXSetsu]

Ya and drop rate has been absurdly low prior because you had to drop the item with a specific anointment.

Now it depends on how the reroll works and your luck with it.
IMO 250 Eridium is to much for reroll.
Depending on anointment pool this will eat your eridium in no time.

Been said that drops are much lower in 11 vs 10 or lower. I find drops are a little lower than before, but doesn't hurt me personally.
