This has probably been discussed already, but as the title implies, why dont the devs increase the drop chance of lower level legendaries in nightmare hell etc? I'm not talking drastically, but it would keep the good legendaries that people find at 60//100 worth while, but would make leveling more fun. I used to love finding Sigon's set in D2, even though it sucked past level like 35-40(i know im not the only one who loved doing that :Thumbs Up: )
Whats the downside to that? Say Legendaries lvl 55+ just get omitted from drop rate change. Who would that piss off? Seems like a simple implementation that could happen in a weekly patch, and finding a set or legendary or 2 every time you level a new char would be awesome.
PS. I killed inferno Big D. the other day, and damn... Shitty loot lol. Inferno Big D. should drop a guaranteed legendary on his first kill per character or account. Would give you a reason to kill him on more than one char.
I would fully support your idea but I don't think it's a big deal.
I got "lucky" and got a legendary while leveling up my first character. Sadly, it wasn't any better than the things I already had at that level so I guess I'm not sure how nice it would be even if they dropped. The low level legendaries aren't very good.
they actually did this with 1.0.4
The chance for a Legendary item to drop that’s below an item level of 50 has been increased - http://www.diablofan...atch-104-notes/
Did not test it my self, but it's in the notes
Cool. Thanks for the link. I'm about to start leveling my DH, so well see if I get lucky/see any difference. RNG or not, I don't think I EVER leveled a new char in D2 and didnt get at least a couple set/unique drops, so if the change was substantial I should see something.
