On topic about loot in terms of the drop rate in my opinion about right now the drop rate is fine because they added a 100% buff rate, There's a problem with both D3 and PoE but mostly D3.

Most of the orange shit / legendaries you fine are just glorified rares; They don't do anything and such. Most god tier stuff are like about a 1% drop rate apparently from the data mined stuff the actual talent change / build changers.

But that's just the tip of the iceberg there's barely any of them is the problem.

Here

90% as Tinko has stated are worthless

the 10% are useful from time to time which a absurd terrible drop rate.

Also regarding the people complaining about builds and the lack of "theorycrafting":

A good theorycrafting challenge in d3 is coming up with different ways to be able to handle torment VI without full class sets.

To do so, you need to find out how much damage enemies there do (ingame testing). Then you need to understand how different affixes compete against each other and how cooldown reduction, resource, life regen, life on hit affixes, etc will affect your overall clear speed and survivability.



It is not as easy at it may seem since different skills have different proc rates which affect the life gained through "life on hit". Furthermore, some defensive skills/passives are affected by your "life regen" or "Health Globe Healing Bonus" for higher effect.

Of course it is easy to create a super tanky build that does shit damage but survives Torment VI through facetanking normal attacks. However, to maximize clear speed with the condition of "don't die" and "no full sets" is a very demanding theorycrafting task.


Edit:
Heck, to make it even more interesting and appropriate, assume that you don't have any of the non-craftable set bonuses.

I love creating new builds when finding a new legendary item, but that has nothing to do with bad low level uniques. You don't make a build around a bad low level unique.

Can you plz give me a list of all the bad low level uniques.

Tinko: Do uniques in PoE not vendor into crafting materials? I'm pretty sure they do, though I'd give you that D3's crafting system gives more predictable results, so maybe you feel that salvaging legendaries has more purpose?

Nice try bro, interesting how your memory works. I said I started a char on Expert with no twink gear and no ruby gem cheesing, but you probably know that. You're just angry I made fun of D3's difficulty because I facerolled the game on the highest possible difficulty for a fresh account on a fresh char.

But then again, you're sticking your nose into Torment difficulties which you were nowhere near to.
First experience it, then comment it.
You're actually making fun of yourself.

So what character you will play after the first is pretty much decided for you by RNG? I don't really see how that makes PoE a game that is more about building a character.
