So....... here is my question.

This is a hypothetical situation with random numbers.

If pre MoK, our drop rate is 100%, and we get nerfed by 70%.

We would have 30% Drop rate left compared to pre patch.

Now GGG announces they will buff drop rates by 10%, 33%, etc.

33% buff to our 30% LoK droprate will bring us to 40% which is still 60% less then before LoK.

I dunno man, if my math checks out, this is just mere scraps, trying to waterhose a wildfire.

The issue is that the drop got nerfed by a 90%.

A 25% of a 10% == 12.5%. Let´s be positive, we are at a 15 - 20%....

please reintroduce sentinel league i might forget what a big nonsense kalandra league is

I'm beginning to think they make these posts just to mess with us.

You are correct. On the high end we lost 90-95% of loot. Aka you had 100% in 3.18 and now had 10% in 3.19. They buffed 10% by 25% for currency and 33% for uniques, so top end went from 100% to 12,5%/ 13,3%

Alc and go / lower investment is was probably closer to 60% less loot. So you had 100% in 3.18 and 40% in 3.19. They buffed 40% by 25/33 , so alc and go went from 100% to 50% / 53,5%

Ofc this numbers are estimations, but people like Empy group and PoM and other people reporting puts it somewhere into that ballpark. This post is them basically double or rather tripleing down on massive loot nerfs while trying to save PR with numbers that don´t mean much to your average player.

Everyone talking about "still a nerf" "90% nerf and 25% buff"

can someone link me where the 90% nerf took place? i dont remember it and i would like to do some math too.

Playtested the patch, unlike most people, and looks fine, a step in the right direction.

Will you please tell us whether this is your vision for the game? because if you just say it out loud then the people that don't like this change can just go on with their lives and find something else to do, as long as you are making these so called "buffs" that dont really fix anything then all the people that have problems with the game right now are going to stay salty and that is even worse for the game.

Say it out loud or FIX it, dont let people stay in the dark.

im not holding my breath on this. you only changed because even the streamers are mad at you. if you werent losing money you wouldnt even touch drops. revert the loot changes.
