@btairborne If you are going to use the tabletop argument, what would never ever fly in a tabletop dungeons and dragons session is running a dungeon and the DM saying "your reward is a copy of the gear you already have that you can salvage for for a fraction of the money you spent getting here". Again, and this bears…

The one area where I can say for sure that drop rates are improved is the bosses themselves. Lostmauth, Valindra, Garakas, all of them frequently drop something, though it was all salvage for me thus far. This is not entirely bad, especially for someone who, like me, runs a few alts, but it doesn't change the fact that I…

so, I say the vast majority of the content outside dungeons is tedious and unrewarding and my main pleasure from the game comes from running dungeons and seeking loot, and your solution is "run more of that tedious and unrewarding content" and even adding more busywork I didn't originally think of. Anyway, moving on. So…

@urabask sadly anecdotal evidence will always be that. I've gained over this weekend alone: a +5 ring of cowardice (lesser demonic key in throne), Horn of blasting (boss drop), Hoard Necklace (regular epic chest drop), demogorgon's girdle of might from regular demo, and several + 4s that I no longer need and are therefore…

@tripsofthrymr was the rod bound? @tripsofthrymr damn, that is my fear, then. If they didn't bind the items to account (and they'd have no reason to worry with AH if they introduced a new tier with lesser drop rates to keep us reaching) and they'd allow us to farm the currencies needed for the keys (like we can already run…

Some people use hyperbole on these forums, true. Some of them even went as far as to say they fixed the loot drops! How's that for crazy hyperbole?

Seriously? In the week or so this went to preview players have had the chance to see videos of those loot drops. Now, no one was expecting a Horn of Lostmauth per run, but it's clear in those runs that for the majority of times, the loot in these chests is not worth the chest used to get it. This is a factbased argument on…

@lordseth1985 That's kin of noticeable for me as a PS4 player. the path to level 70 seems incredibly more fleshed out than the end game area in terms of content and stuff to do. Sadly, as a level 70 there's not many reasons, if any at all, to go back to the beginning. My knowledge of the game's development is quite…

well, I'd kind of count my blessings for all those hamsters and "unproductive" commentaries. Anger is a sign that we still somehow care about your product in spite of a growing list of recent blunders. If something like this or that dreadful key change were met by crickets, then you could as well close down the servers,…

@rgutscheradev very much this. Ultimately people won't mind the price of the old things drop if they can aim for the new ones. And making the older items bound and more available will devalue the unbound ones anyway. So the point is more or less made moot unless a new tier of items is made and unless new content is…

This. Let the first chest be a return of investment for the daily AD grind, the second one be a bonus, and have bosses drop more than a peridot or a salvageable. There are other ways to monetize the game if you don't make people run after their losses.
-
Thing is, the price of rare items will always decrease. A friend of mine began playing 3 days ago and I shared some wealth and bought him a blue mount and some mulhorand weapons to get him sorted on his path, and it cost me about 30k total in the AH. When I started my last alt during black friday the same items would cost…

there are a lot of good ideas from the community here, much more fleshed out than I ever could make them. So, to keep it short and sweet: - The "daily" epic dungeon chests should be there to ensure that you never quite run a dungeon at a loss. In other words, they should still have a (smaller) drop rate of actual rare…

I joined to add my voice to the discontent. These changes will depopulate a lot of the skirmishes and raids available, as the risk of a crappy reward is just not worth it. It also will not be worth it to essentially do a day grinding for materials, and another waiting for the key to drop just so I can take my chances at…
