What exactly did you test that you had to disable the rare loot for? Why couldn't it be done on either internal test servers or the public test server? When will the rare loot be enabled again? Will people who spent reroll tokens or even ad be compensated in some way? Why wasn't this change announced before it went live?
I thought chris whiteside wanted to improve the communication between the devs and the players and not make it worse.
This is really HAMSTER. I rerolled a lot of chests yesterday. This info should have been put out immediately and in a system wide message. This is not good customer relations.

Im absolutely shocked....for real.....this is far beyond from what ive expected...i dont know how many many many Reroll tokens guildmates and me spent the last days for getting some legendary shards lol..........nah lost the words.....
So does this mean no collars from chests until this is resolved?
Collars, regular high end equipment such as from ToMM, Zariel, etc, and most rewards that you're used to seeing from end chests are NOT part of that system and they all continue to drop as normal.
The system we're referring to is the one that had old items such as old companions, old mounts, old low level artifact equipment and had a very rare chance of dropping in end chests.
We are working on getting the specific information of that system up right now.
So no more drops of epic mounts/comps which is what gave more ad. And everything bound to account omg. 2 things, one that the auction house would empty of mounts and companions and 2 if you have all the companions and mounts you need im guessing the only chance you will get to get some ad is to actually get refined ad (which i guess it will be a HAMSTER number like 10k or so), or a leg mount which im guessing will show 1 per year at most. Im guessing you will put every companion and mount at the zen store so everyone has to get into zax or buy zen to get the mount they need (because lets be honest you wont get the one you need from the coffers, and no one can sell them to u since drops will be bta). As said above on the comment someone deleted, plain scam on removing rewards an plain scam on new rewards
The new system is not turned on yet, we wanted to get the blog up so people go better understand what system is off and what it does and does not affect. The system is continuing to be tested as I write this and we should have a time frame update later today.
Only Old mounts and old comps...so basicly all that were possible to drop Got turned off. But gladly all other loot is still there, we can still get all that nice opals and peridots so stop complaining guys everything is fine...
thank you for helping us understand what Kind of loot is enabled and wich is not affected..
Will you at least add more companions to zen store? Somebody above made a good point about the companions. It'll take forever to get those you need since you won't be able to buy them from other players. However in my opinion that change is long awaited and I'm glad that is going to be reworked. I hope you will look close to the AH and situation on the server and react accordingly to improve the situation. (more companions in Zen store as 1st step)
Ok...so now we have lost another ad revenue stream with the selling of companions and mounts that drop from dungeons......everything except the extremely lucky account wide mounts will be account bound.......this is bad juju dev team
Lmao . Wasted lots of rerolls as well . Also , weren’t we supposed to get a free collar or something ? I haven’t seen one mount collar or anything to do with a mount since last weeks patch . Shards of power are also scarce . I need how many to upgrade the non existent collars ? Gonna take a year ... smh Game is getting ridiculous

the shards might drop more profusely in new content we haven't seen yet

What metrics were gained from blocking the regular drops before the new system is in place?
tbh making high end stuff account bound is really really sh**ty (I know leg mounts wont but lets be honest we got more chacne of getting them out of lockbox) Also will players be getting reimburst reroll tokens/ AD lost? As me like many others have noticed the lack of anything decent from chests, unless you count black opals as decent that is....Oh and dont forget Seals of the adventurer as we all need those . . .
what about epic mounts and comps? there are only a few available in tb store, only a few available anywhere and bound to account for everything?
NO just no.
put it back the way it was, with things unbound in most content. you're just going to make things inaccessible for people this way. it will be more difficult for newer ppl to gear up by selling things and in turn to buy things they need, like bondings and enchants.
don't even try and back this up with the cdp: you guys wanted it baloney..
I don't think anyone said make there be no epics and have it all bound to account except for leg mounts.
I am pretty sure that people were asking for things that are currently bound to char now, to be bound to account.
and for new things that dropped to be unbound, but then bind to account, not char. big difference there.
ie nothing bound to char. everything bound to account. except for drops. those should be sellable and then bound account after binding
Having almost everything bound to account is pretty stupid. How are we supposed to get a specific companion if we can't buy it from the auction house? Are we supposed to run dungeons a thousand times just to get one specific companion?
Looks like its time to quit investing any money into this mess and go elsewhere. We were told things would get better, but it gets worse every week. And when i do leave, i wont let the door hit me in Hamster on the way out.

Meh....I just don't care any more. BG3 is out in a week, and that will probably take up all the time I have for playing anyhow.

but it is not clear in the announcement whether or not these improved drop tables are actually live yet!?

Will rare mounts and companions now be bound account? I found it interesting that legendary mounts were free to trade, but why not the others?
NO just no.
