Drop Rate doesn't match difficulty level now....
" Actually, you can: white items sell for wisdom scraps, but wisdom scrolls can be traded up into portal scrolls, which in turn can be traded up for transmutation orbs. Just ask Nessa. Don't expect her to give you a fair deal on it, though. I have wandered through insanity;
I have walked the spiral out. Heard its twisted dreamed inanity In a whisper, in a shout. In the babbling cacophony The refrains are all the same: "[permutations of humanity] are unworthy of the name!" |

" Blues and yellows are necessary to complete the Skinner Box, but for real power you must craft your own items. And besides, finding a white 4-linked sword of the right colors is just as exciting (and far more useful) as finding a rare twig'n'berries with boosts to irrelevant stats. Just because it's colored yellow, doesn't mean it's useful. But it does trigger the pleasure center in your brain and make you play more. So, mission accomplished.

" Yes technically you can, but it's a little disingenuous to advertise it as such. The exchange rate at that level is pretty abysmal. On the same token, you can say that you can trade transmutation orbs for orbs of fusing, but it'd take so many as to make it pretty silly. Diamond Supporter since 2012-04-24.

" The entire game is a Skinner Box and I'm well aware of how to craft. If you find your Skinner Box enjoyment out of receiving multiple whites from a boss well then good on ya. I however prefer my Skinner Box experience to be more colorful and less generic. The nerfs will continue until morale improves.

" Same thing happened to me. We needed a group of 3 and even then we had a very, very hard time with her. And what dropped? A few whites and a blue. I have absolutely no problem changing the droprates for blues like I said, but spending that miuch time and effort (now that the game is harder) for almost no reward (now that the rates are so low) seems off. |

" Try getting 3 whites all useless low level low socket items. What risk vs reward? |

People do not get this, only magical items' drops nerfed a bit, rest is same what had been in 0.9.8
Is it that hard to understand ? Nothing exclusive to be found on this. Drops are just fine. "This is too good for you, very powerful ! You want - You take"

" I don't think you are paying attention to what people are saying. Are you really of the opinion that Merveil dropping 2 whites and 1 blue in a two person group is "fine"? There is nothing fine about that. It was advertised that boss difficulty would increase, and that combined with zone changes to make them more difficult to farm would lead to more significant rewards. This is not currently the case.
