Why just not improving drop rate of high runes?

Ber dropped for me on 2nd run, but then another 100 runs and the highest is Io only. Not sure if I’m lucky or not.

It random… and just because you’re too impatient, Blizzard shouldn’t break the game for others.

I understand your point of view.
Especially the feeling when you finally find something, is super great would adjust the drop rate, I find that just cheap. It would feel cheep.
But it’s not a game where everything goes super fast either he can do it or you let it be.

Some ppl want changes some dont, devs said they want to support the game that hints changes in order to make everyone happy instead of debating in so many topics what change you want and how you want it , just all ask for changes to go into d2rplus characters after conversion , this way ppl get the changes , ppl dont get the changes, devs keep supporting the game and not lose their jobs. Just make it so we have more character slots when you do that cause noone said you cant play both sides

I would start with making it possible to find everything from white mobs and equalize chances with bosses. It would make stop those different kind of runs and would be no of these do something for one min and remake.

And now I will most likely feel robbed cause I played the game where I do item hunting and got nothing in return.

For offline I wouldn’t mind a greater dropchance tbh. I’m used to it though, and know I won’t get everything I would like on a given character, and I just make due, with what does drop for me. I would like though, a bit higher chance of getting HR, as some runewords is simply out of the question for SP unless I play several years on the same character.

Multiplayer I very rarely engage in, so have no idea what increased droprates would do (I have some estimates, but that’s about it)

They should make things even harder to find. Perhaps link it to your account, so that you were only able to find 1 rune above Tir every 7 years, provided you played for 26 hours a day, 9 days a week.
That way you could really be proud of your achievements. :wink:

Joke aside: I really don’t see why this could be changed so that rare runes could drop once in a while also for us who play this as a single player/offline, for the sake of the story element - not just to crank up the difficulty to (swear word here) difficulty ASAP and start farming items and runes.
And yes, this also goes for items, not just runes. I tried playing on (swear word here) diffculty once, and simply did not find it to my taste. Maybe I’m not good enough to cope with the game technically on higher difficulties, or simply not dedicated enough. Or both.

Would be nice to see some really hefty items and runes (above Shael) once in a while even on Normal, any way, though.

You are not supposed to find 10 HRs per ladder.

HR words are extremely powerful, kinda OP.
Uniques and Sets are already very weak in comparison. Do you really want to kick out all of them by simply lowering drop rates of HRs?

The game is not built like that. It is okay, that you may not find a HR in a ladder.

think most ppl ask that for non ladder and offline to get better drop, many dont even care for ladder or ladder can have the same drops , mostly i hope i get online chars to get to do the command /players 8 , ladder should not have it just normal online

Why just not reducing drop rate of high runes, back to 1.11?
Higher rune drops means bots become more profitable, so high drop rate encourages botting.

Why would increased drop rates improve the game?
You are not entitled to get every item in the game! Some items are supposed to be that rare that you will never have one of those. That makes these items special and someone who gets it can feel really lucky.
You don’t have to farm 50h for a single rune, just don’t do it if you don’t think it’s worth your time.

Idiotic entitled players: “please change the game so that even I can get all the best items that exist in this game so i can complete the game too”
Bots are a nice excuse… who cares about botting in this game? Just play HC selffound and see how far you get until you get bored ^^

Rune drops are not affected by MF.

Again and again… Bots exist only because of grind. Players care about invested time, bots don’t. So lower droprates is what makes bots more profitable.

Dude is blaming bots for his in ability to find stuff because of time investment.

Everyone on this forum seems to think this game is over run by bots etc ruining their experience even though most of them are clueless.

Idiotic entitled no-lifers and addicts: “and want a justification and gratification for playing thousands of hours till my brain melts”

Current drop rates are designed for addicts and bots.
