Ok,
Played through normal/nightmare/hell and first act of inferno, then normal again, halfway into nightmare and hell twice (farming).
Now i am halfway through inferno and in all this time i have only found 1 green set item and 2 special golden? items. Now considering when i went through hell twice i was methodical in searching every square inch of ground and had my 5x nef bonus for most of it, i would have thought i would have found more set items at least.
As it is with the 5x bonus i get more magic and rare items, but 99% of them are crap or reasonable but not for a wizard, so it all gets sold for gold.
In the AH you see lots of set items for sale (and special items), but i'm starting to think everyone only finds 1 piece and you have to spend real $ to get a set, or even a 2nd piece?
I've had 2 pieces of Immortal King's armor, and the IK 2h mace drop for me. They were so disgustingly worthless that I had to sell them. RNG is no friend of mine!
I had my first set item drop just into Inferno Act 1 on Saturday. It was Tal Rasha's Guardianship. Within an hour I had 3 legendary items drop, 2 gloves and 1 pants. My magic find was pretty low at the time and when I got the set item I had maybe 1-2 stack(s) of NV.
Since then I have logged around 26-30 hours and no set or legendary items have dropped and I'm at 249 magic find with 5 stacks of NV.
It's all random, my friend. Just keep killing and prey to the RNG Gods for decent drops.
I guess I'm relatively lucky here. I have found Inna's Blessing, which I kept and am using, and a highish dex Blackthorne's Scabbard, which I sold for 15 million. ~300 hours played over 3 characters.

Anyone else struggling to find this gear??
Quit your bitching. You can beat this game without the set items. I have played through inferno as a wizard, monk, and DH and haven't seen a single legendary/set item.
I used to also feel a little disheartened that I had managed to get all the way to inferno without a single legendary or set drop for me, but now after 200 hours played, still without having found one, I'm actually quite happy to not find any.
Finding one and seeing that it's absolute trash? No thanks.

Hopefully once they fix legendary items that feeling will change for all of us
before I took my MF gear I found like 3 legendary in like 200h, now with MF gear i'mf usually finding at least 1 legendary a day, I also found 1 set items (Natalya's Xbow) I like to find legendary because even if they are crap they will sell for high simply because they are legendary and people are stupid
I found Blackthorne's Breeches this week, my first and only. I was kiting away from some champs and walked back and behind them was a carrion nest and under were where they were. Guess my electric orb found it's way there and hit a bat. I coulda totally missed them if I hadn't gone back!
Oh, they suck so bad. equivalent to a 250k pair!

I suppport Legendaries and Sets being rare (and their quality SHOULD reflect this...), but I think they are TOO rare right now. I have found 4 Legendaries and 1 single set item in over 400 hours of play. I guess now that MF seems to be so much worse and I am finding maybe half the rares I did a couple weeks ago, I shouldn't expect this to improve.
300 hours of played, found two set items, Tal Rasha's neck and that one weird MF/GF ring, both sold for a million even though they were probably the worst rolls possible. I agree they could drop a bit more, but then again they are so bad 99% of the time they drop that the AH is already loaded with every set item even with the ultra rare drop rate.
Pray to the RNG gods! I won't get a set/legendary for a week, then 2 in a row. I have been saving my junk legendaries and dropping them unidentified after elite kills when I group with friends. They get so happy for the rest of the run and their reactions make me rofl.
Innas Splendor and Tal Rasha Lidless Eye plus about 9 other Legendary items for me in about 200hrs. When I found the Giant Skull I got all excited....then I looked at the stats, wow....that thing rolled as bad as it possibly could have. But that's what makes Legendaries so compelling in D3 (if they ever buff some of them).......the randomness of the affix rolls creates enormous potential for epic and truly unique rolls.
First 300 hours? Found none. In the last 50 hours? Found at least 6, even 3 in one run. Of course it was all garbage (about 3m for the six legendaries), but still.

Ive had around 15 legendaries drop and three set items in total
I had 2 legendaries worth selling for above 1 million, and one set item worth selling for above 1 million.
So, wuptidu! And thats with about 3-400 hours played.

That explains it! I can never catch those little bastards to do enough damage before they port. :/
