1 day 8 hours /played - 56 rare items found

I just today did a quick Warrior SSF Act 1 run in 0.2. First, I only equipped blues, because you don't need any more than that in softcore. I died twice, but they were avoidable deaths, and if I was actually a warrior player I wouldn't have died.

In just Act 1 (with no MF), I had 20 rares drop, at least 4 of which would have been useful upgrades for my build/character. I also had one unique drop, but that is just RNG, usually this is zero. That is in just under 3 hours of gameplay. (Note: I did *every* optional event in every zone)

This is about what I've experienced in both 0.1 and 0.2, so in 24 hours played I'd expect to see about 160 rarees drop, probably a bit more as I'd be doing content which has higher chance of rares. Probably the number of useful upgrades would be only around 25, and I would craft another 5.

Curiously, in this run the bad loot RNG was hitting my scrolls of wisdom. I hardly had any of them.... At times not enough to even identity blues that would be upgrades. However, this problem fixes itself as soon as the Shadowy-Figure is in good health.

I know this video is too fast to really count the loot that dropped, but you can pause and step the video or take my word for it.

(I didn't make the video for this thread, but for another thread where someone was saying he thought 0.2 Act 1 was way harder than 0.1 Act 1. I don't think it's any different.)
