When people run their expectations so high and hype themselves up about how awesome it will be that there are new weapons that they want, and the monsters they fight won't drop them. You honestly cannot expect a Superior Vigor and 15^50 Elemental Sword to drop for you every mob you fight.

No i meant just that.. i have seen items actually drop ,for a very brief time, then its gone. Seen it do this in all 3 campains now.
I surely dont expect to see sup runes drop from ordinary type mobs, was just commenting that on istani , i hadnt seen many runes of any sort drop.
Im usually pretty happy with a collector or crafted weapons, and like to see , something besides whites drop now and then.
Since i wrote that , I did the mission from istani to the mainland , and just about fell over , 1 sup rune, 2 or 3 purple runes , and a few blue and purple weapons dropped on just that mission. probably more than i had got in all the time it took to get to that mission :-)
At the sanctuary I did enough missions and killing to get to general , didnt see much in the way of drops, defenitely seemed to be a lot less even whites,mostly coin and even then seemed sometimes there is nothing and another time everything drops a bit.
Decided to have a go at trying to get a green weapon , just for the sake to see how hard it was to get. I think took me about 8 tries or so when it finally dropped ,used 3 henchies and 3 heros. Wasnt many things to kill on way there but got a few purple items.
Figured i was on a streak so tried to get a green for my necro , after about 10 or so runs , little longer and more to kill to get there, got a gold and purple max dmg daggers that were not too bad just from the bugs. these dropped within moments of each other. On some runs nothing dropped , hardly even coins. Other runs , would get lots of coins or whites etc.
Overall i was pretty happy with getting the one green , and the daggers were a bonus I used on the assasin hero.
Kinda seemed like it was either feast or famine as the drops went.
