So I’m on difficulty T7 and mobs aren’t dropping loot at the normal rate, not even close. Regardless of realm and even on my HC character when I kill yellows or purples all I get is one item and one death breath. Mostly yellow parts and rarely anything higher. Chests and bosses seem to be mostly normal but grinding is basically pointless. Any advise if this is a known issue and if so how can I fix it?
Not a bug.
Per d3resource difficulties
T7:
90% chance at 1 Death Breath
164% Leg Drop Multiplier [compared to 625% At T13]
236% Leg Drop Multiplier (rifts) [compared to 901% At T13.
These values have not changed since before Season 5. You don’t start getting multiple DBs until T8 and even then its only a 15% chance, T10 gives 50% chance and T12 is 100% at a 2nd and 12% chance for a 3rd.

My issue isn’t with the death breath, I’m aware of their drop rates and at what T-lvls the rates increase but my issue is with regular item drops. Everything was normal until last week when mobs just stopped dropping the normal amount of loot. As I said, one item from killing yellow and purple enemies isn’t normal. It has to be a bug. I can grind through a whole dungeon and get one bag full maybe, and one rare if I’m lucky every couple hours, I increased my T-lvl to the extent I could survive and still no change. At this point grinding only lvls me and does nothing to upgrade my gear.
Relying on drop for gearing isn’t the way to do it. You have multiple options available for gearing. 2 of which is Blood Shards and Upgrade rare.
If your looking for non-weapons and non-jewlery, use blood shards. Weapons and jewelry is better to use upgrade rare. If your looking for set items, then you can use the convert set items to convert extras of a set to a different piece of that set.
Loot drops are not bugged. T7 doesnt have a high Leg drop rate. T13 is something like a 6 times leg rate.
The thing is I didn’t need to rely on blood shards or upgrading rare items, grinding was working great, I’d get legendaries regularly and set items we frequent until one day my drop rate went to basically nothing. I’ve been playing diablo since the first one and I’ve been playing D3 since day one release on PC so i am fully aware of what the normal amount of items I’d get and this isn’t even close.
If loot drops are bugged, then none of us would be getting drops. You do realize that we all play the same game, right? Why would only your game be bugged when all our games run on Blizzard’s servers.
It’s not a known issue for the simple reason that it’s not an issue…
I am seeing the same issue- I have been playing since the beginning, This season is crap for drops.
