For me crafting ancients gave me good roll after 5-8 craft, Kadala gave me only an average goldskin. I've found 2 1h weapon, one was a set item and a pretty decent upgrade. The other one had nothing special except for the dps boost. And I've found a bracer but it was meh...
So overall I think the Ancients legs are on average medium to good. (not extraordinary but ok.)
I read somewhere that the ultra rares arent so rare anymore- the ancients are supposed to replace them in rarity. I know I found a star and a haunt yesterday (not exactly sure how rare they are).
I do think the patch is buffed for now and will get adjusted later - I think thats what happened when 2.0 came out. Goblins are everywhere, ancient items are dropping all over the place, the drop rate must be buffed for the release. I have found 4 ancients already and crafted 2. Thats quite a bit more than you would expect in about 4 hours play in the last couple days. Check my Wiz, as she is wearing the Tal Rashas Brace and Reapers Wraps, they were the only 2 ancients worth equipping.
Ideally this is an example when everything thing goes right:

If I get an ancient Star Metal, and it rolls bad I'm Raging out......
These next couple of months will be interesting

The season is underway. Don't know if I'll make it through.
Akarat save me !
Watching you look at that jeram made my day. I know the feeling, I screamed like a little girl when my crusader got his fotf.
