A question on RNG... So, after playing with a Crusader for the season, now decide to try another toon, for arguments sake, a DH? but all that falls are mainly Crusader items? Would RNG perhaps realise that it's a DH running at the moment. It would be nice if RNG would drop items for the character that you are playing...
Only items for the class you are playing will drop (with very low chance of items for other class). If you are running DH then most of the 1-hand weapon drop will be hand crossbow (or DH dagger) with a low off chance of anything else, eg. crusader flail.

"Hope... Do not look down, my friend. Even in the darkest of times, there is always hope. Hope for a better day, hope for a new dawn. Or just hope for a good breakfast. You start small, then see what you can get."
I finally quit the ancient Wand of Woh search. Because everything else (including the source) is ancient, I fly through T10 group rifts on my own, without any help. Not ancient weapon or augmented gear needed, with only 560 paragon... What huge amount of time wasted... (sorry for my English)
I've noticed also that I've had a terrible time of trying to get numerous items, I just keep getting the same things over and mostly non ancient. Is this part of the nerf?

I think it's just bad luck... RNG being RNG as usual. I had terrible time finding SMF for my WD, be it drop or rare upgrade, for the first few days after reaching level 70, and bam! suddenly got 2 of them in 2 consecutive GR. Also tried to find ancient hell tooth gear only to get mostly ancient jade instead. Keep on looking man.

Trust me your not the only one myself I've had such a hard time getting decent drops but lately when i hit the paragon 300 on the season 7 it started dropping decent gear its a matter of time or simply just leave the game you are on and log yourself again and let the rng spinning wheel go again.
Well, with Season 7 over I can finally confirm that RNGesus likes to tease me Hundreds of rifts, countless shards dumped into 1-H weapons and lots of ceremonial knives upgraded to legendaries - still no precious Sacred Harvester for me... However, I've got 5 SMKs and 6 Daggers of Darts completely useless for Jade Doc
I believe if you want an item you just can't seem to get hold of you need at least 16 rares and mats worth (400 of each) and upgrade all of them in a row so you give RNG a chance to get around to what you want. I've found if you break the upgrade sequence and come back to it again then you will get the same easy to get items up first again.

I tell people the same sort of advice. As a comparison, I did about 80 upgrades of 2H mighty weapons to get the one I wanted in ancient.

I wouldn't upgrade rares with the aim of getting ancient, I'd go just for the item and then re roll it half a dozen or so times to make it an ancient.

Half a dozen? haha. statistically, its 1 in 10. if you are having bad RNG, you could roll 100 of them before you see an ancient. A friend of mine has apparently rerolled an item over 40 times this season before finally getting an unusable ancient from it. He did finally get the weapon he needed in ancient by rolling rares however. Yes, the chance of getting an ancient of the item you need by upgrading rares is much lower than rerolling legendaries, but it is also much more affordable for some people, and can be used in conjunction if you are really desperate for that specific item.

Poor Devil, I've already scrapped 4 of them and no the only one I have now is the one I'm using, if I get another one I'll put it on the forums.
