Can we agree on an equivalent drop rate of mythic uniques from regular farming (non uber bosses) in the game to an item in D2 that is more feasible than their drop rate on D4 release (which was basically 0%) - maybe as rare as a deaths web or jah/ber in D2?
I got tyrael’s might from a T100 dungeon boss the other day…
Dunno if that would be to often.
D2 LoD was designed for no seasons until the dupes kicked in and required seasons.
Seasons only existed cause of dupes.
But thats another part of the reason why drops can’t be as “frequent” as in Diablo 2 LoD.
I am only refering to LoD in this comment.
In Diablo 2 LoD a player found high runes of worth (Jah, Ber, Ohm, Vex) approximately every 300-500 CS runs or lower worth high runes (Cham, Zod,…) every 100 cow runs (150-250 CS runs).
Now if we take items like Griffon, Maras, Soj, Zaka, … (mid/ high end items) it would be about every 200-300 CS runs for one item to drop in that category.
I’d say the current mythic uniques are kind of compareable to JMOD or 20FCR Sorc/Pala/Necro Amus/ Circlets or very good rolled perfect high end uniques like Griffon (perfect), Maras (perfect),… which is kind of unbalanced but still fair.
I don’t think you can just increase the drop rate to as high as D2 was because of how good mythic uniques are in D4.
I think really what I’m also trying to say is that, the game needs a smoother rarity-curve of different items. It’s too much of a jump from regular uniques to mythic uniques. There is no reason why they cannot add in uniques between that huge gap that can be found without almost always requiring doing uber boss farming. This would improve the item chase so much more.
We shouldn’t have to argue or debate this that D2 had an excellent item-rarity curve for various items relative to their power level. There was always an item that you felt like was just around the corner but D4 does not capture this that well due to its large drop % gap between regular uniques and then mythic uniques.
Playing since release and only 1 uber unique dropped (doombringer) outside of bosses and I was super lucky lol
Hopefully they’ll bring the Wolfs honor thingy …or something you can get get a spark Per Alt character made that completes the Dang thing.
That way everybody has NO Excuses and can make their own uber.
Please stay away from Diablo 2, y’all can’t handle it.
