The legendary drop rates for the Early Access and Open Beta weekends were turned way up higher than normal. The legendary drop rates that we have now for Server Slam are pretty much what we’ll be getting when the game goes live next month. They might make some small, minor tweaks, but legendary drop rates will never be anywhere near to what we had during the previous beta events.
If you want lots of legendaries raining down from the sky then this is simply not the game for you because that’s just never going to happen.

Wouldn’t be so sure about that, Diablo 3 started out the same.
Yes, and they’ve already stated that they don’t intend to repeat that same mistake in a number of interviews, Developer Updates, etc. Couldn’t care less if you believe me or not, the information is really quite easy to find if you look for it, just figured the OP should be made aware in case they might want to refund if the game isn’t going to be to their liking.

i get a legendary once an hour some times even 2. your just unlucky, id say the drop rate is abit TOO high at lvl 20, play diablo 2 up to lvl 20 and see the drop rate there. how many legendaries do you get until you hit 20 in that game

But we already know that higher world tiers will drop more items, it’s a logical progression. If legendary drop rates are too low people will complain, and they will cave. That’s what happened in D3, that’s what will happen in D4.
It doesn’t even matter what the devs say, the devs in a year might be different people, often is the case.
What they might, or might not, do in a year isn’t going to mean a damn thing to the OP who wants legendaries raining down NOW. Did you even read the OP’s post? Did you actually understand it? Seems to me the OP has a high priority on getting LOTS of legendaries really quickly right from the start. Well that isn’t going to happen. So, and please do take a little time to actually think this through, is it not better that the OP is aware of this NOW so they can decide on whether to stick with the game or get a refund OR would it be better that the OP finds out about this in a couple months when they cannot get a refund?

NO! PERIOD, its totally fine as it is, your not supposed to farm at level 20 anyway, your supposed to get through the main story and some side quests/dungeon/world events and move on to higher level zones which rewards better loot that way…

Feels low indeed. I thought drop rate was boosted with 300% last beta but this time around i did not get a single drop in 2 days. My guess is that it was way more than that.
Might be OK but the issues is some classes / specs only work properly with legendaries (design mistake really). I had an amazing time last time as werebear (moar than 17 damage :D) but without legendaries it feels miserable this time around. Especially the one increasing attack speed of builder by 40%. As this is now the proper drop rate i think i will postpone my purchase and stay on D2R instead which seems to be the better game for me as legendaries feel less mandatory.
Good of Blizzard to give the real picture to players about drop rates though. So kuddos to them.

legendaries is easier and drops more frequent the higher level you get, you notice the same with yellows, rares almost doesnt drop for the first 10 levels but then alot rains later at level 15-20, and you start seeing legendaries after 14 tbh, and depending on what you do and how you do it you can farm alot

27 hours in game,one lege item drop from The Butcher,and even that drop from the butcher was 3 hours ago.
Another 2 leges i got from Obols vendor.
No one wanted 30 legendary items every hour,but going through every dungeon,pretty much every event,open world farming,and getting only one legendary item is a bit overkill,even for low difficulty and only up to level 20.
Believe it or not,i couldn’t care less proving you anything,i just wrote that for people who had same crappy luck. You are not alone.
I could’ve abuse and farm 30 legendary items a hour like most youtubers did with that corpse loot,but that’s not why i am playing game for. At least now we know how they got to the top in other games.
And not only that,but game is literally and completelly different from previous beta,and we have been sold a lie,and i am not talking about QoL changes.
Playing game was supposed to be fun,not a chore,ESPECIALLY not at lower levels.I waited for game like this since i bought my first computer 20 years ago and i am honestly devastated.

Honestly, the drop rate of legendary ones now looks perfect, now, I have been able to test the sorcerer and the necro cleaning the entire map of act1 and I almost finished full legendaries and some of them good, leaving my pjs ready, but I created a post complaining while I was in veteran difficulty and at level 20 it does not make sense, although everyone is free to comment on that first, but this may be logical when we are at full level and levels of torment, then you will have a + from me, but complaining right now is like being in WoW being low level 25 and saying that why don’t they give you epics in the missions and tiers, thank you very much everyone.

I think I got 6 or so legendary items throughout the server slam, which honestly felt okay. I just used the service to make my own once I found a suitable power.
I did notice the uniques are on the W3 difficultly, so having a low legend drop on W2 would allow for a low unique drop on W3, while slightly boosting the legend drop rate (since they’re not that game changing anymore).
Legendary item drop rate is as it should be.

I’ll be damned!
And do you remember the walking whiners how you complained in the first beta that too many legendary items fall out?
Don’t you remember how it bothered you? Have you forgotten how it ruined your gameplay?
Fair
Not really.
I feel like Legendary drop rate will be higher than this, based on my messing around in the level 30 zone where I got a lot more legendaries. We only have 2 world tiers available. OP should just play the game, probably to find the legendary drop rate is decent at endgame, and if it isn’t the devs will probably fix it like they did in the great Inferno nerf of D3 launch.
The devs stated that they go legendary power to drop chance in d4. That means that most powerfull legendary items will be ultra rare like in d2. That means that you can rain legendaries and still have slim chance of getting those god like legendary items. That means that sadly only most dedicated players that farm and farm will run geared like gods and casuals just will have to do with less powerful builds on easier difficulties. So even if you get 100 legends most will have low to mid tier legendary powers. Propably by farming highest difficulty most demanding activities you will have better chance so looking how people dealt with ashava it will be bad if they dont change to pre made party required like in destiny ( which i love ) and randos will just ruin the end game activities by walcing around low geared and unprepared. Legendary drop rates are not even on my list of things to change. Live service need that carrot at the end of the stick to chase it and if people get rewarded quickly the burnout syndrom will hit so fast that no matter casual or dedicated player people will get burned out and stop playing. People that cry for more legendary drops are looking for fast gratification so they will be the first to drop out of the game no matter what. For dedicated players there must be a simple structure, ammount of work is equal to the reward. Kill that ballance and you kill the dedicated playerbase.
make the drop rate lower please

The legendary items are now what they’re supposed to be: rare items. Increasing the drop for this kind of items means reducing the others to non-useful. I don’t want to repeat the same shit of Diablo III, when you find a yellow item and you just use it for recycling.
