it was always horrible, and the reason we found more stuff that was decent++ is because SO much ilvl61+ loot was dropping that it almost didnt matter that 7/8 of the stuff we found was salvage material. because it was almost all 61-63.
game was a gear check before being a loot grind. can you kill the mobs? yes? you get great loot. no? go back an act and pray you get a ridiculously godly drop or 5 really quickly so you can have a chance at killing later mobs.
now its primarily a loot grind. keep killing pomegranate till you can farm later mobs, cuz it all drops everything you need.
It's stupid. Before the patch I would collect adequate lvl 63 gear in the higher acts. After it, it's lolfarming ACT 1 again because the drops there had consistently better stats than those in ACT 3/4.
