Anyone noticed IIR / IIQ mechanics failing after some patch?

It is clear that abilities that have the ability to kill monsters off screen need a range reduction!

I've noticed this too. But haven't recorded any data. I will do that today. I run with 200/50 and some bosses only drop like 8 blues and then some drop a whole lot. Not sure if it's just RNG or whatever. I am a caster and use range sometimes but not all of the time.

yeah I think they been meddling with RNG. for 4 weeks straight I was guarenteed 3 -5 uniques per day, but then more recently I've gone weeks without a single one, either they been ninja nerfing MF or RNG is rediculous

i have 400MF/ 105 Quanity solo EK ranger

I noticed that rare drop rate is a lot more consistent now, but unique drop rate seem to have fallen off a cliff...

Yeah, the low count is really weird, I can fix that by re-summon my minion. (Can't do it with the spetre though...)

I think you wrong. I did not resummon minions and still... Got good drops after bad ones.

You do indeed have to be close to monsters to get loot. Killing from too far away (via spells, bow, totems, minions, etc.) will mean no drops. There are already a few threads bringing this to the devs' attention.

Is this their way of buffing melee? Jokes aside, no wonder I've been getting close to nothing when farming docks.

So this makes since. I play with dual totems and on some boss fights I get pretty far away and run in only to curse, summon totems. I kill the boss and don't see anything but blue drops now most of the time. I used to see 1-4 yellow drops.

I guess I will move closer until this is fixed....gulp.

I farmed docks on my LA ranger for 4 hours with ZERO map drops, very few yellows when I was out of maps. Being a LA ranger, I'd attack from afar and this would explain it.
