Hi all, just wondering where all the loot has gone in season 34, I have just levelled from new to lvl 70 and in the whole of that time I got 9 low tier legendaries drop and next to no good rare/ magic items.
I actually get more loot on D2 at the moment.
Jusr ran a bounty cache on T1 and got zero drops from it (legendaries wise) and only 4 other drops (2x blue 2x rares)
Was this intentional or am I just having the worst luck in the world ?
This is completely normal on low difficulty,
next, move along
Bounty Cache Legendary items have:
| Difficulty | Chance | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Torment I | 10% | to drop | |
| Torment II | 50% | to drop | |
| Torment VI | 100% | to drop |
At Torment XVI you have 100% chance to get 2 Bounty Legendary items with an 80% chance for a third one.

Yeah low torment caches don’t drop so many things usually. Focus on the seasonal journey to get a full set, then pump up the difficutly.
But Rng is Rng, unfortunately. You can’t know what your next drop will be. For example I found all the ingredients for the staff of herding on the first try, I still can’t believe it! Yet it took me 10 bounty caches of T13-T16 to find just one ring of royal grandeur.
Been there. Multiple times.
No it really isn’t, I have just run 5 bounty caches and got zero legendary drops, including killing mathiel, belial, asmodan. To not get a single legendary drop from those bosses alone tells me something isn’t normal.
Every season I play I start lvl1 on either torment 1 or next one down until I get my class set, I usually have a couple of stash tabs full of legendaries waiting for me to cube them or recycle them.
Did I miss a loot nerf ?
RGN is RGN

You did it on too low difficulty.
Thats too bad you’re going to have to do them again! While it knocks out the “obtain a bounty cache from each act” part of the season journey, you have to do them at level 70 on torment 1 (I think) in order to get the jeweler recipes which you ALSO need for the season journey.
Look man, either you’re right, or dozens of us grizzled forum regulars are.
Occam’s Razor would suggest you’re just having bad RNG, but you can still wear the tin-foil hat if you want to. I’m not a cop.
It looks like I was just having a terrible run, worst I’ve ever seen. Just did a low level GR 20, I think, and the drop was 5 legends and a set piece for later.
I guess my runs have all be ok as far as RNG goes, apart from this one. This one sucked.
Thanks to everyone for their opinions/advice/links.
Yep, RNG can be almost cruel sometimes.
My spouse has been having a heck of a time trying to get Petrified Screams. He’s gotten… one. And we’ve been running T16 and GR90+ since around lunchtime on Saturday, farming GR100’s since yesterday morning. I think I’ve gotten around 10 of them. He had the same problem last season, as well. Apparently they’re petrified of him and just will not drop.
Any interesting stuff doesn’t drop below torment 2.
As Perusoe said, you get 10% legendary rate on T1 for bounty caches. If you are looking for a RoRG, it is a waste of time to do it on T1. I have seen too many people complaining in chat that they have been running A1 bounties for 4+ hours and no RoRG. Ask them, and they are running T1/T2 or lower.
Honestly, a lot of people overvalue RoRG at the start of the season. You don’t need it at the moment you hit 70. In the 4 hours players are grinding T1 A1 bounties, they could have gotten their Haedrig set and got 1-7 support pieces/cube pieces at this point they would be doing T10-T16 and could get that RoRG in 1-5 A1 bounty runs.
What I would do is:
get Haedrigs
turn up to T6-T10 ( whatever you can push and still kill fast)
farm visions
use dbs for Recipe 3 and get your weapon, supporting gear, cube stuff
unlock double bounty caches which is on the way to pet auto-salvage
push Altar for pet auto-salvage (I beeline it. No other node is important after hitting 70)
if you do this, you should have most if not all the pieces for you gear and you can do T13-T16 A1 bounties which gives you 4 legendaries, so that RoRG should only take a run or 2 or 3.
Thanks for the Info, I’m sort of following your advice already, I’m currently running stuff on T10. The visions are hit and miss with my build atm, some I breeze through, some I get slaughtered 5 times in a row but get there eventually. Cube stuff is non-existent at the moment, just not getting anything even remotely helpful.
Just going to have to bite the bullet and farm everything until I can get a few steps forward in my build (POJ Monk).
