Default TQ IT v 1.1 droprate ?

I've just done about 10-15 Wusao Caves + Typhon Runs, yeah died lots

Back when i was playing hella lots in 1.15-1.20 Typhon was easy as pie and usually dropped at least 1 legendary every 3rd run or so. Even saw him drop 3 once But now after 10-15 runs on Legendary i have 1 Legendary item to show for it and thats a lvl 37 one. He even dropped a lvl 31 tier 1 epic set item for me on friggin legendary...

Seems like the legendary item drop rate has been screwed and everything made way harder ... wtf. Harder - fine, but why lower the droprate to near zero ? I mean Typhon on legendary is friggin hard imo, even at 59 with good gear, so with all the new cool items and such why make his droprate 1 / 15 that's just a lil more than 6% chance to drop a legendary ?

Am i just being ultra unlucky or anyone else experiencing really low drop rates playing IT ?

Same here , tought they fixed it but it seems that the droprates got even worse then before
Majestic chests contain only yellows and some gold now aswell :x.
Orbs from bosses are the same only sometimes they add a relic/green item to it but nothing impressive about that.
So far i found 2 legendary bows from random monsters and demeters sorrow.
This means that common monsters > bosses ? o_O

Yeah, same here.... found a Legendary spear playing through act 4 on a random mob, got a few green items from all the Majestic chests, but no legendary items at all through the entire act from the majestic chests at bosses etc, not even the bosses that pops an orb like Typhon does

I've found two blues through all of Act IV on legendary. Other than that, I've only found new items from chests (two legendary armors). Seems to me like the droprate is somehow bugged.

Hmmm odd, I'm finding loads farming the ORB Bosses and Typhon/Hades, found 30+ legendary's (5 new ones), 20+ epics (4 new ones) and 100+ relics at least.

Maybe just Unlucky perhaps?

Regards,

Incinerate.

I killed Typhon for the first time last night, got one relic piece, like 8 stacks of gold, and like 4-5 crappy yellow items. I did it three more times and got a few more yellows, then I gave up, was too hard to kill at my level and there was just no reward there at all. I remember back in early TQ, killing a boss that dropped an orb for the first time was like a 100% guaranteed blue drop, if not 2. Then coming back you'd still get a blue like every other run or better. I just can't get bosses to drop anything. I found like 10 blues throughout normal, like 7 from bone piles, and 3 from monsters.

Keep in mind Incinerate's character is over level 60.

Aye Infares has a good point, your char lvl plays a large part as well.

What lvl / class is your character exactly Incinerate? How hard is Hades for you on legendary?

EDIT: Figured out a strategy to kill him (as a Conqueror) without dying. You do this:

When you run into the throne room, summon your Ancestral Warriors and put up a Battle Standard. Then you kill his first and second forms and when his spirit comes out, use your Collossus Form (because the blast he uses damages far more than the skills in his other forms).
