Hmmm.....I think they have ninja nerfed something, i done alot of testing before i made this post. It could just be RNG, but then i must be unlucky as hell for the past few days.
I did do some 77 and 78 maps, and drops looked fine (same old crapy rares, but at least there where rares). But when i do 75 or lower maps, i get nada. First i thought it was just bad luck, but then i asked around and other people experience the same, over and over again. (thats not rng? is it?)
I dont say i dont find anything, but i dont have to use any tp to go up and sell as i get every rare drop on a map in one go (sometimes only 2-3 rares). If im on higher level maps(77+) i have to tp at least 2-3 times to sell.
But i dont know, im just talking from experience and words from other.
I laugh so much to these kind of posts that we see for years in all arpgs. "They must have ninja nerfed sth, I've ran extensive tests, I did TWENTY RUNS and no uniques, NEEEEEERRRRF."
I dream of a world where new players will understand the rng meaning, and the fact that the very small data you've collected alone means absolutely nothing. You need to collect the data of thousands and thousands of runs before to jump to conclusions.
Personnally I have found a lot of good things these past few days, including one Hegemony's Era, they must have buffed tier 1 uniques!

Check your filter? Maybe its hiding some of them.

Actually, Chris himself has admitted in podcasts that they do "ninja nerf" things.
Truth is, posts like these simply relay that people are not satisfied with the endgame, feel unrewarded by the current drop rates, etc.
Games gets boring when you enter the poorly designed endgame. But that's fine. Just stop playing. It's OK to let go and move on.

Except Chris confirmed in the last state of the exile podcast that GGG DOES in fact, alter drop rates without notice.

Druga1757: So? You think they did alter drop rates of uniques in a bad way these last few days? Based on what?
Now let's all be paranoid and make a thread about ninja nerf every couple of days.
renderwurx: You're right on the fact that these posts show the fact that some players are not satisfied with the drop rates. Common rant we see here, I can understand it.

My only point is that it's not always 'RNG is RNG', GGG does in fact change the rates.

But why? There needs to be an cause and effect, GGG can change drop rates anytime they want. But why would they? What possible game-play benefit would they arrive at changing it randomly for any reason.
Most major drop rate changes buff/nerfs are always announced in patch notes. If they need to do a massive change in drop rates I don't see why they need to hide it when they always announce massive changes in drop rates.

Dunno, ask Chris? All I know is, drop rates are NOT set in stone.

I would love to know your methods and results of the tests you've ran, I'm sure it'll make my day.
