Aspect of Repeating / rarity of aspects

Hy everyone,

one quick and simple question.
Is the Game bugged or is it just me.
Has this Aspect: Aspect of Repeating dropped for anyone the last 48h?

I’m Level 88 and i never saw this Aspect.
Doing Dungeons, Nightmare, Helltide, open world events and pvp.
Found everything else like 10 times already and even nearly every unique item (expect helm).

What about variety and diversity of builds?
You need that Aspect for Rapid Fire build, if it should be good.
With making Aspects that Rare, this won’t help to variety and diversity builds.

So, all in all, has this Aspect dropped for anyone and is it possible that it is bugged?

I have yet to find it at ~60.

Anything you are looking for is going to seem more rare due to the bias of wanting it and excitement of having.

For example I have dropped like 10 umbral aspects and now that I neeed one…havent seen it in days.

level 65 here
never seen it
ive been in tier 4 since 63.

i also get about 95% level 40 drops and no uniques at all since week 1.

I didn’t find it once in 57 levels but i found it twice yesterday from 58-60 including a near max roll that made me swap from TB to RF to try it out. This was in the last 2 days

by any chance you know where and how it dropped?
still grinding and well, no luck, not even for one witrh bad roll

This games RNG loot is terrible. I have gotten so many aspects for freezing stuff on my rogue it’s crazy. I have only gotten repeating twice. Once at level 30 something then at 74.

i have never seen it! level 55 rogue and it just doesn’t seem to exist

So how is Blizzard thinking that People will try out different builds?
When you don’t get aspects and so at some point you stand in line and hit the wall?
As a player, you can only play the main builds, which also reduces the fun of the game in the long run?
Regardless of the nerfs, I would like to play Rapid fire Rogue, but there is no point if I can’t find the aspect and so the build is bad!

Another 10 hours of playtime and not a single drop for this aspect and I’m trying to farm the aspect as hard as I can…

Got an aspect of repeating while I was on TB levelling. Respec’d and used the imprint on my crossbow at level 50 to bring the build online.

Since then, I’m still waiting on aspect of repeating to drop again. Level 71 now, I’ve seen every other aspect for my build drop in duplicates with some even max roll in the interim. Rushed to WT4 at 57, been farming there as hard as possible for aspects to drop nonstop pretty much the entire time.

Haven’t gotten a single aspect of repeating, but plenty of comparable aspects for other builds. I really feel like they weight the specialized aspects to drop for when you’re spec’d into another build…

Maybe if I respec out of rapid fire I’ll get some repeating aspects and can spec back into it? Might try to test that if too many more levels go by without a drop

Edit: I spec’d into barrage and got it to drop literally in the first dungeon I went into.

I’ve been looking for this damn aspect all game…

And no… Just won’t drop for me…
I am purely gambling 1h weapons, just to find this damn aspect, but nope :smiley:

I found each of the other core skill aspects multiple times by now and not a single repeating aspect… It’s driving me insane as Rapid fire seems like the most fun build to me.

I’m just at lvl 56 but found it on a ring. So it does exist. As for now RF works pretty good.

Level 65 and haven’t see it once… Ran a dungeon last night and got 3 Legendry’s all with the same aspect, RNG sucks in this game.

IMO all core skill aspects should be obtainable through dungeons, Pen shot, TB, Barrage & Flurry all are so why not Rapid fire?..

I get the point of not having all aspects available from codex, but I agree that the core skills should all be there, as they are essential to each build and keep us from experimenting with different base builds.

Especially when the RNG seems botched…

Can’t decide if I’m just extremely unlucky or if it’s really off…

My recommendation would be to put it on a ring. Rings don’t need an upgrade that often - weapons are all about DPS up to a point where more DPS is better than ricochet. Better to have an outdated ring, that having an outdated weapon.

I thought only my character was bugged. I only drop shoes and amulets and with the same aspects all the time (traps and freez)

Shoes can only have utility/mobility aspects (and there are not that many) - so that is quite normal to have duplicates especially with boots.

Repeating Aspect can afaik drop on all weapons, rings, amulets and gloves.

Best way to get it should be gambling swords or daggers . Amuletts can have a lot of stats (and they add 50% which would probably not work with ricochet)

I understand that there is such a thing as RNG and I have no problem with that. But after two days of farming I have 5 Hakan amulets with the same aspect and nothing else. this is not rng this is some sh***

lvl 69 and have not seen it drop once. RNG is straight cheeks in this game
