Legendary Drop Rate Hot Fixes Rolling out 5/26!

Those were examples man, looked for a excuse for posting that song xD

holy ā– ā– ā– ā–  what the ā– ā– ā– ā–  this is awesome i’m shitting my pants right now

Now I’m thinking… This will lower the number of people who ask for duping!!!

Wishful thinking there, bud. People still won’t want to farm themselves and will still be lazy.

I may just be super negative, but I doubt it. Id love to be wrong though.

I just did 5 loot train runs to test this out and I got 8 legendaries! Two double drops in a row and a triple drop on the fifth try. The only run I didn’t get anything was the fourth one. 4 shields, two grenade mods, one class mod and a Thunderball Fists. Based on the loot train alone, this drop rate seems higher than week five of the test runs. I’d say it’s even somewhat close to week three. I’ll farm some other sources later today to get a better grasp at it, but I’m loving it!

guess fix hasn’t stuck for me yet, been farming sense yesterday, and have only gotten one DPUH, which by the way, im leverl 26krieg and the pistol was level 9, WTF, cant I get loot at my level. waste of a legendary, too bad BL2 doesn’t have a grinder for it, guess im out of luck, guess ill keep trying

Random is still random, if you play with an active internet connection, you have the hotfix (unless you’re on Mac App Store of course). The level things is normal, Savage Lee’s level is scaled to the area.

ya I know, just hate that random factor, I know its all got to do with luck, just gets aggravating playing for hours on a game and not getting anywhere

Mobley just dropped me a Hornet. Yeah, this new drop rate will be fun. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Thanks Gearbox this is awesome! :smile:

Awesome, now all that’s missing is to make us able to repeat round 5 of the Bandit/Hyperion/Creature slaughter without having to reset the entirety of UVHM.

I did some runs. I had success but still had dry runs too. Very satisfying and nicely balanced. This drop rate is simply perfect :slight_smile:

Does anyone know if this includes unique weapons like the Twister and The Cobra? Thanks!

Ye, Corba has now 3 times nearly 0 chance to drop :smile:

So to get it straight. Now most Legendaries have a 9% to drop from their assigned drop source? Like Mercy has a 9% chance for an Infinity an a Bunker has 9% chance to drop one of his Legendaries?

Well, 10% but yes, that’s pretty much it but that should include every assigned drop including heads/skins and the rare blue unique. Although the drop rate of all Legendary sources is three times higher now.

The new rates feel very well balanced.

You still have to put in work, but the drops come a lot more quickly.

Win-win-win as they say. No one says that. I say it.

Is the hotfix not available is Australia yet? Just ran knuckledragger and bewm bewm 27 times and not a single legendary. Do I need ps plus to get the hotfix? On ps4 if that matters.

The hot fixes are live worldwide!
