Legendary drop rate

I have 313% magic find with 5 stacks of NV and after maybe 10-20 runs the last week or so I've gotten 1 legendary manticore worth 13mil, and 1 azurath (legendary) worth 3mil.

I think the numbers for getting legendaries are low, but hopefully with 375% it will be every 1-3 runs I get one.

I've been playing for 120 hrs (which isn't a lot) but I haven't found one legendary yet...but I guess I'm not missing out on much since most legendaries are still pretty crap

I'm fairly certain that the legendary drop rates haven't changed, and they certainly haven't changed from my experience.

I wonder on the drop rates of set items. I play with a couple of people and no one I know has ever found a set item. Legendaries aren't common but I've seen a couple drop and my buddies get them every week or so. (We don't play much) but set items seem to be the rarest of them all. Just my 2 cents.

I only found 1 day after patch then I feel like they killed it after.

I haven't seen a legendary in any of my 12 paragon levels (I know, not a lot), but even before that, i used to farm Act I a lot and it has been over a month of reasonable play (10+ hours a week) and I still haven't even SEEN a legendary....

I think I have found over 20 legendary items. I am paragon lvl 41 and they come at a good rate. I just wish most of them did not suck.

Why would blizzard lower the drop rate? IT would only make the new legendaries that much more expensive, making the rest of the auction house worth that much less.

It might just be coincidence but ever since the middle of this week I haven't been getting legenadaries. Before that I averaged probaly 3-4 legendaries a day, probaly just random though.

Hopefully this infernal machine patch will be a way for some people to score some legendaries

I don't think the drop rates have changed at all. They are streaky by nature. We have to remember that time does not increase the chance of a legendary dropping. The chance is for every item dropping individually and not a total running until one drops. So sometimes you can go weeks or months without a drop and other times you can get flooded rather quickly.

Legendary drops are pretty random, some days I'll get a bunch in a row other days none. If you can find a few good people to group with, you can split the profit from the runs and it'll help with variance.

prior to patch 1.0.4, i got one legendary (a Goldskin).

post 1.0.4, in a fraction of the time played, i've gotten 4 (a Heirophant's Seal, a Obsidian Ring of the Zodiac, some random level 57 xbow, and a pair of Depth Diggers). anecdotal evidence is anecdotal though.

I've noticed that I've been getting legendary items with a good amount of consistency post 1.04. I'm running just under max MF on my wizard, and I'm seeing a legendary drop every couple of hours or so. I've found quite a few since 1.04 launched (but most of them were bad except an echoing truth that sold for 12m)

I haven't found a single thing in the past week worth selling for anything on the auction house, let alone a legendary.

pre 104 i got nothing, but as of late, i've been getting 1 every once in a while, i almost expect one now
only plvl 12, with minimal mf on my gear... but the interesting thing is, i don't find my stuff off elites...
i've gotten IK helm off a gob, but other than that, its been off trash mobs (skorn and sankis), and i found bracers in a chest!

while doing a gold run in nm, i think an elite dropped a raven bow or something like that

Total legendary/set found so far for me 23
12 before patch
11 after new patch.

I ran act1 mostly before patch, act3 nowadays with base mf/follower/nv on my mage @ 104%, sometimes i switch on killing blow (if i'm feeling pack is easy) to 207%mf.. most times i dont switch.

A lot of them are crappy legendaries though, sigh.. if only my blackthorns were after patch T.T
