So i started a new seasons Crusader and i am so frustrated because i can't get a RoRG. All other legendary items from Act I cache have already dropped 4 times. (Amulet, Bracer, Shoulder, Mace). I still havent dropped a single RoRG.
Is my luck that bad or there is something wrong?
I've been running act 1 bounties on t6 and between my own experience and all the posts that have popped up here about the poor drop rate, I would guess it's somewhere around 2-3%. I opened about 25 caches before seeing my first ring and have never gotten another one since then. Unless you can run them on t6 to get the guaranteed legendary drop I'd say it's not even worth trying to get it unless you have a lot of free time.
so just a little RNG comparison. I made my friend start a seasonal HC dh with me and so far he has like triple my luck. in his first 20 hours of playing he got sentry rucksack, m6 set, ice climbers. at that point i had 40 hours and i only had 3 pieces of marauder. flash forward now i have 64 hours he has 30, in that time he found 2 krider shots! drops that I have never seen in my 1500 hours playing d3 he gets in a little over a day of play time lol. BUT I have been blessed with a TnT drop, albeit a low roll with no vit or crit hit dmg. now its at the point where i just get to leech off his crazy luck haha, hes helped me complete my m6 and given me his 2nd kridershot. woot for luckyfriends/lootshare
Sounds like some bad rng to me. I was able to get my first rorg within 25 minutes doing 12 normal a1 runs the second i hit 70. as for my lucky dh friend it only took him 6 cachs to get it after he hit 70 too.

I think it's more a case of you being really lucky than me being unlucky
Been gambling 10-15k shards so far on my monk for either Frostburns (because I really want to play a cold build and give my fingers a rest from Sunwuko spam) or T+Ts for my DH, got probably 10-15 Gladiators and lower numbers of St.Andrew's and Fists of Thunder...aaand that's about it.
On the other hand, I found two nearly perfectly rolled Unity rings rather quickly so my monk is already pushing GR34-35 on seasonal.
Found 2 Stone of Jordan on my seasons Crusader yesterday in 2 hours. Both rolled well (the phys one with 44 % CHD (rerolled Str to socket)). Gave away the holy one since I already had a great one. Buy still, no Blade of Prophecy.
Too bad you pretty much always want taskers on m6... there are ome cases where you can give up on tnt but it really depends on your specific spec and the rest of your gear.
Having more luck in seasons than I have in many months of normal play .
Monk reaches 70 and starts doing some low lvl Grifts , Furnace drops .
Farming shards for my monk on seasons with my DH , switch to monk start gambling my 500 shards . 100 shards later I get T&T which are passed to my DH . Go back on my DH , second T6 rift my first ever Kridershot drops
So far I have had
2 X T&T
1 x Kridershot
1 x Calamity
1 Etrayu
1 Furnace
3 x Unities
Not to mention full M6 etc , really need that luck on my monk now . This just on seasons , and only on paragon 250
Just decided to sticky this thread, as there's a recent new wave of other RNG threads... should be easier for people to realize where to ask about RNG-related questions or post their RNG success stories.
Thanks for everyone in helping to guide people to this thread! :-)

Some friends have reported much better drop rates in seasons as well, is that the general feeling?
Oh, and I hate you
A few clan members are saying the same thing . But , we are all mainly playing 1 char so it may be that it seems way more . Like in normal I play every class so drops may be a bit watered down if you see what I mean
Not the case for me Nodders. I only played Wizard in non-season, and in seasons I started on Wizard but I've migrated to the Barb. I've definitely noticed more drops in season - not only a higher amount, but higher variance.
I'm at Paragon Fo Fotty Fo (not as fun to say as Para Tree Fiddy, but gotta get my giggles somewhere!) and the RNGods pretty much hate me, no matter how many goats I sacrifice to appease them. (I'd try virgins, but all my neighbors are either married with kids or have bungie jumped into the Ho Tree )
I've done kinda sorta ok with set items. Full M6 with TnT on my DH (3 of the 6 pieces were loot shared by a very cool clanmate, shout out to <Mavs> Binge!). Full A6 on my 'sader, again 3 of the 6 pieces loot shared by generous pub gamers. My other characters, not so much. 3/6 on Firebirds and 2/4 Monkey King.
Where I've gotten the green weenie from the RNGods has been on the more desirable weapons. Of the BiS weapons, I've only dropped an Etreau, a Flying Dragon, one badly rolled FotF, one half way decent Darklight. All of the others, TF, SoH, SMK, etc, never seen a single one. I can, of course, pretend to have them, as I was able to get some of the tranmogs.
The only place where I was blessed by the RNGods... I do have 4 double unity sets (2 int, 1 Dex, 1 Str) all gotten prior to 2.1. The rolls aren't great, but I can live with it, literally
I did not play much since the legendary drop rate increase after ROS was released. Most my recent playtime has been patch 2.1. I'd say close to 120 hours. I got a Witching hour drop last night on my WD. Don't have it equipped and the only reason i'm on forums is the servers are down. Secondary are nothing to write home about, primary stats as follows -
Ive had some luck, but not the right kind of luck... Looking for Lut Socks, Thunderfury, Odyn Son... keep ending up with Raekors boots, IK maces, even had a Marauders Gloves drop while playing with my Barb. I have recycled just about a full set of Raekors now (while keeping a full set in stash) But havent seen a single elite weapon... not one Furnace, Maximus, TF, OS, SoH... none of them. Oh and I found a Fate of the Fell for the Crusader I dont use.... ugh. I have good luck, but not in the way I need it.
Talking with my brother in law, I was mentioning some of the top weapons, like Maximus... he links be to the 3 he had in his stash, TF? Yup I have 3 of those too. SoH, OS, FotF, Taskers.... he has all sorts of super stuff, but he is missing key basic armor parts for the builds, like he doesnt have a single piece of Raekors while I tend to throw them away as I have too many of them to warrant keeping... and of course I never find them while playing together.
Trying to get 6% crit on Firebird Hat. Seems all fair and balanced.
OUCH... I hope it's worth it. Honestly, no Firebird's helmet imho would ever be worth it, I would never consume *all my Forgotten Souls* on an item, except for if it's something like a Wand of Woh or perfect Furnace. But even then, I'd still keep a few souls if I already reached 9% CDR.

Did like 20 t6 rifts and every rift had at least 2 pylons... seriously
