    Gosh Just Drop Something, Anything!

    I've come to the conclusion that my Demon Hunter is simply cursed when it comes to loot. I have just completed my 8th Rift and have not had anything drop from trash, objects, or the Greater Rift. Not even a single keystone. This has been a general occurrence since hitting 70 where I've fought tooth and nail to get my second piece of Marauders...both of which were only obtained through gambling.

    Meanwhile, I'll get on my Monk, Crusader, or Witch Doctor and I am practically swimming in legendary or set items.

    Do Turrets have an impact on loot? Should I simply stop playing Demon Hunter since the game clearly has it out for me?

    Edit: OH DIP! A Nats Ring from chest! How wonderful if only I didn't already have hand me down rings from the Monk.

    What difficulty are you playing on? I am averaging 23.5 Legendarys per hour doing Torm 6 rifts on season atleast.

    I'm sure he's running T6 with only 1 piece marauders...

    OT: Are you trying kadala rolls aswell? Aside from that, mara is your end game but it's not the only viable piece. Getting cindercoat, leorics crown, nemesis gloves etc goes a long way. I got pretty unlucky on my seasonal DH aswell, I spent about 3k bloodshards on kadala for my first leg, got marauders from her in the end though! As for rifts, I went tons with pretty much no loot, then got 3 great pieces from a single one (on T2).

    It's a bit of a Murphy's law aswell though. On my non seasonal DH I get legendaries all the time from kadala, I get nowhere near as lucky on my HC/seasonal one, the ones who actually still need gear, ofcourse.

    Turrets don't affect loot and as for quiting your DH, just play what you enjoy. I've tried to make wizard work for me so many times since it's a class I want to be good with but...

    I start to think mine is cursed too :P
    I am nearly only getting Imps and Harvester Rifts (Both normal and greater rifts infact) and even though legendaries do drop, then it is generally the same 3 quivers and Blackthorne's set that drops for me. Been spending +10k Blood Shards on Chest armor so far, and havent gotten Maurauder's Carapace yet either (But lots of Blackthorne's...)

    Simply put: Am using alot of time, but can't get the Single Quiver or Chest piece that I need. Not that I mind the grind though

    Rift guardian's are only for marquise gems and keystone trials... all my legendaries come from chests in rifts...

    8 rifts, lol.

    It goes in waves. I did a ton of farming for my set items and just couldn't get the last two pieces. Did a Grift and Maximus dropped for me, ported to town to spend my blood shards and got both my missing pieces in the ~12 rolls I had.

    haha that made me laugh out loud - i think we've all experienced that pain of going days without seeing a freaking worthwhile drop. But when that moment does come ... the addiction and smiles return.

    Seriously, that's it ? Just 8 ? I'm not trying to be rude, but that's ridiculous. Come back after you've done 100-200 rifts then lets talk about legendary drops.

    This is a game of RNG. It's perfectly normal and working as intended to see nothing (good) drop.

    Some characters just don't get the luck. I've got over 400 hours played on my monk with only four useful legendarys as drops on him. It took my wizard six months and 300 hours played to get the gear to farm T5 just barely, getting only two slots worth of Firebird. My Witch Doctor in only two weeks of serious play is fully geared in Jade and pet (no SMK tho) with the MoJ and T+T having godly rolls and the only only piece across two specs with room for serious upgrading is the TMF ring which has mediocre stats. That's on top of a SoH ( almost half a year late but well rolled enough to be a better upgrade than the weapon my wizard had over hundreds of hours played), two pieces of Mara gear and Sunwuko shoulders.
    I'd go mad thinking if I would have had the same streak of luck on my wizard or monk, but going 8 rifts without an upgrade is nothing. One guy in my clan spammed over 50k shards for a pair of T+Ts for his DH and they dropped on his wizard when he was running Act 1 bounties.

    I suppose this is a proper thread to post my QQ.

    Ok so my seasonal dh is pretty well geared and I can farm t6 rifts and is atm ~280lvl paragon. I have given kadala thousands of blood shards. Probably over ten thousand of them. I have farmed rifts and greater rifts. I think I have leveled over 50 paragon levels (at least, may be higher... even closer to 75, but not hundred I think). BUT NO! NO! That marauders chest doesnt drop. I have lots of other sets completed already within the time, but that marauders chest just doesnt drop. I need it to get 6piece bonus so my sentries can pwn, but that thing doesnt drop. Is it in the loot tables anymore?!!! I dont think I can progress any further until it drops. Highest greater rift I have done in time is 25lvl while my friends with the proper set are doing +30 greater rifts.

    ...... you may disregard this QQ, if you want. Thanks for listening.

    Maybe you would have better luck since you can do T6 farming the ring instead?

    Oh I have had rorg since I started doing torment and could get first set bonus that I thought was worthwhile. Besides all the QQ doesnt matter now. RNG god was finally nice to me and the chest dropped.

    I'm on 3 pieces of the Crusader set. The past week I saw 4 helmets, 3 shoulders and 2 boots drop. Guess what 3 pieces I already had :-P That's about as bad as having zero drops I guess.

    I've never done two rifts without having a leg drop after the torment rift buff patch. He is either insanely unlucky or mistaken.

    It is not normal when they have a dynamic failsafe in place.

    lol there's always one of these guys in these types of thread who supposedly gets an obscene amount of legendaries when everyone else isnt.
    If what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. Then I should be a god by now.

    Drop rate after v2.1.1 does indeed seem to have been nerfed.

    - I've done 2 T5 bounties and 2 T5 rifts after patch (yes, a small sample I know) and gotten single RoRG from the cache and nothing else..
    - Kadala (who have quadroubled her prices) have yielded ONE legendary chest armor, which ofc was utter crap.
    - Goblin Gem, v2.1, yielded 100K+ on nearly every fight. 250K was possible and once I got 380K from a single fight. After v2.1.1, I have once gotten more than 100K, but generally 25-50K seems to drop..
    Fact (because I say so): TBC > Cata > Legion > ShaLa > MoP > DF > BfA > WoD = WotLK

    Maybe 23 is extremely lucky, but getting 15-20/hour by doing 4-6 min T6 rifts is not unusual.

    It all depends on clear speed. My group are doing sub 4min average Torm 6 rifts. With some pee breaks and wait time we can usally do atleast 15 rifts per hour. Which results in the legendary per hour number I have posted.
