Like I said, I'll go in to much more detail on Tuesday during the stream but this was just the first step and modifying the loot progression as a whole. The quick and dirty of what went in today is that there are three 'tiers' for equipment and I have smoothed out the curve for which tier you'll be likely to pull from depending on how far along the 'item progression' you are.
I should also mention thats the odds to get a SPECIFIC Unique. Your odds to get any tier 3 unique weapon are about 1:174 (up from 1:277). Your odds of any unique are obviously higher.
Using the Sullevin Blade example, here is how the system breaks down what you got (in the most non-technical way possible):
1) You get an item
2) You have a chance for it to be tier 1, 2 or 3
3) IF you rolled tier 3 you have a chance for it to be a Tier-3 item of either armor, weapon, accessory, upgrade, or a rune for the tier you rolled
4) IF you rolled a weapon you now have a chance for it to be normal, rare or unique
5) IF you rolled unique you now have a chance for it to be a 1h weapon, 2h weapon, bow ...etc.
6) IF you rolled 2h weapon you now have a chance for it to be a Sullevin Blade.
So basically #2 has been drastically improved. Next will probably be #3 and 4 relative to your item score.
You're welcome to wait until the next drop of improvements before spending gold BUT I will say that on top of my plans to add a bunch more rare and unique items in to the tiers I also might pull some out
Luke,
What's the current cap on chests for maximum tier?
It was mentioned in the Friday Twitch stream that the tiers were based on the amount of CARDS inside the chests , rather than the chests themselves. It was also mentioned on the stream that it is best to open large chests so you get more cards ie. more bang for your buck(gold)
So.... how many cards are needed to cap AND at 1.4mil gold spent on large chests am I at that cap?
1400000 gold spent
1200 gold per large chest
1166 chests
5 loot cards per chest (not counting potions)
1166 x 5 = 5830
card score 5830
