Drops have gone “dumb”

For some reason, the vast majority of my legendary drops today, weren’t even rolling primary stats and vitality (I did a quest reset for my other character, WYSIWYG).

I fully replaced the legacy gear on this wizard with excess loot 2.0 items, and am doing a full play through again to see if I can get any upgrades or this character.  I’m halfway through Act II and so far, it’s been a major fail (zero upgrades).  RNG is one thing, but when at least 95% is rolling without INT and VIT…

Furthermore, it’s been all of those previously low level “glorified rares” that were masquerading as “legendary”, which now roll at the monster level; basically not quality or epic legendary items by any stretch of the imagination.  And it’s not like the items currently on this character, are really good in terms of the rolls on them.

This is around 14 legendary drops (3 of them were Denial shields) of uninspiring crap.  I basically stopped playing softcore and jumped onto hardcore where it took forever to see my first legendary drop (a Devil Tongue).  My second drop turned out to be the Skull Grasp which was a modest upgrade (eHP wise) over the legacy Pox I had.  I ended up resorting to crafting shoulders and belt from the Demon’s Skin plan that I fortunately had from before; replaced both my legacy Vile Ward and Witching Hour (took the sheet damage hit for the increased eHP).

Soul bound items is not going to cut it long term if players keep getting low quality crap like this.
