Actually, that brings up an interesting question...because it sounds like certain uniques are more rare than others, that probably applies to Orbs of Chance as well. If this is the case, the current log is fairly useless as it stands, because people are rolling for all sorts of uniques, but they all have different probabilities. Or did I misunderstand something along the way?

Using an Orb of Chance has the advantage of applying to a specific item base type. Random unique drops are no longer decided by a specific base type, which means that there is a different system at play.

In layman's terms? Sorry, I'm a bit slow. xD

Stratified the drop rates of Unique items so that some of them are more common (especially build-enabling ones), and powerful ones are still extremely rare.

Played quite a few hours of 0.9.11g yesterday (after being on a week of vacation) and I got my very first 2 Uniques (after having played off and on for almost two months and getting zero).

Yes, they are low level and "build-enabling", but they made me very, very happy to see ;-).

Don't under estimate the value of low level Unique drops. An important element of D2, IMHO. A random Unique low/mid level drop will suddenly encourage me to create a new character from scratch, just to take advantage of it.

Thanks!

one thing , in open beta all the toon goona to wipe... and after the open beta, when release to prod, they wipe all us again, right? I don´t QQ just to test others caracters... like a wiz or maybe a templar...

The wipe before open beta will be the last wipe. There will be no wipe between open beta and "official release".
