Rare rings & amulets too hard to find?

Am I just unlucky or are rare rings and amulets awfully unusual drops? I've only found one rare amulet and two rings and I have stash tabs full of weapons and armor.

If so, is this good or something that needs to be fixed?

Up to level 45, I found all kinds of them. From 45 to 53 I think I found ONE. Now in that time frame between 45 and and 53, I found 3 uniques (my only 3).

So I dont have the the answer to your question, but it sure SEEMS they have gotten harder to find.

PS I have both the item quantity and rarity gems, and have had for quite some time.

find white or blue amulets with good implicits and upgrade them in various ways using orbs.

i think its working as intended...

That seems to be the way it is. I get 1 rare ring or amulet probably for every 100 armor or weapon drops. The same goes for belts. I think I've gotten 1 or 2 belt drops.

My guess is simply that these (rings, amulets, belts) drop less in general, but if that's the case maybe they should increase the chance of them being rare. As a level 50 player my jewelry and belt is for someone half that or worse. And I've found it hard to trade for good jewelry and belts.

Haven't found one decent blue ring or amulet, and every white one I've upgraded has been garbage. I've had much better luck using orbs on weapons and armor. But maybe I'm just unlucky.

Rare rings are pretty much the bottleneck for people using the Chaos Orb vendor recipe (1 rare of each item slot for 1-2 chaos orb)

I've found the same.
ive gotten way more rare rings than belts. the only way i can get a rare belt is to make one with orbs.

I bet that's why. You're right that there isn't much jewelery or many belts dropping to begin with. They probably has the same base rare % chance.

I think it would be more fun to find more rare jewelery. My rings are blue resist rings I made many levels ago.

The drop rates of Unique items are no longer proportional to their item type. A common Unique ring is now as likely to drop as a common Unique weapon


It might just be the RNG gods or my mind playing tricks, but since the above was implemented, it seems to me that rare jewelry drops more frequently, as well.
