@GGG: Why do low level uniques (legendaries) drop at high level?!

There is just way to much RNG in this game.

Because it really is frustrating if you only find non-useful uniques.
It even goes that far, that if an unique drops, you aren't even
exicted anymore. :/

If I'm in a highlvl zone, I want to get high lvl stuff.
They add so many uniques anyway.. so if they put the low
levels out of the "drop table", the chance to get what you
really need/want are still low enough!

I personally don't mind that low level uniques can drop in high level areas. I do share others bad RNG luck in that it seems to me like all I ever get is low level uniques dropping, despite farming high end maps and areas exclusively.

But I just figured I have terrible luck and don't run MF so my chances of getting end-game uniques is fairly well limited.

But, hey, those low level uniques can pile up and sell for a fuse or chaos from time to time, so it's not all bad. And now leveling up a new character is super easy with all the crazy gear at low levels.

I feel your pain OP. I was right at the point of needing a new weapon drop on my scion, level 49, when i see the beautiful orange glow, and its a 2h axe! Hot damn! Sadly, it was level 14. I cant stress how bad I hate that. Got so spoiled playing console D3 that last few months waiting for this to hit release. All legs roll at your level, and scale up. It really is amazing how much that can be. oh well, at least legs drop a little more frequently now.

I would be sad if getting a 6S quill rain or searing touch was impossible. Very sad.

the lower level uniques could drop in merc content but not in maps. It wouldn't help OP very much, but it would be an improvement. Over itemlevel 50 on a low level unique is pointless.

I'd rather have a ilvl 70 Searing Touch, Pillar of the Caged God, or Quill Rain drop in maps than Infernal Mantle #20101010. Or ivl 70 Foxshade, etc.

Hell, I'd probably rather have an ilvl 70 Baptism or ilvl 70 Wideswing to a lot of the "high level" uniques.

Unique's are special versions of base items, every time a base item drops it has a chance to be the unique variant if a unique variant exists. So, if white item X drops it has a chance to be spawned as it's unique variant, which is why low level uniques drop in high level areas.

As far as I know, it rolls unique rarity first, then the item. You don't see common Vine Circlets dropping in maps but you see Crown of Thorns'(unique Vine Circlet) dropping in maps.

So when you get a unique it succeeded in the unique roll - then it rolls a unique item from the unique item pool(based on iLvl and location), stronger ones have less chance to be rolled obviously.

Eh, I completely understand the OP's point. I levelled two characters from 1-70, and while doing so, I never found a single unique above level 30+. I mean, I get it, sometimes RNG bends you over, but what in the hell is the point of increasing the drop rate of uniques for bosses when the loot table for them is fricken ridiculous? I mean, I find uniques quite often, bout 1 a day doing Docks / Solaris in an attempt to find a few things to better myself, but it just isn't dropping. I don't even get excited over uniques dropping anymore 'cuz they're all crap. I know maps are the end-game, but c'mon, at least make it POSSIBLE for level 50+ Uniques to drop in a fricken level 67 zone.

And I know its not just me, my roommate plays as well, and he too has leveled two characters to around 75 and has found nothing but garbage uniques. At least give a lil chance to find one or two decent unqiues a month lol.
