Guild Wars 2

Mainly in HotW. I don’t remember seeing lvl 82 mobs there.
Also they drop less, and I’m sitting with ~100% magic find?
What happened?

I haven’t noticed a difficulty increase, but I have noticed a loot decrease, despite killing the same amount of mobs.

Lv82 icebrood kodans are normal there.

Loot is always RNG even with high Magic Find. I don’t know how many times I have to say this, but 100% magic find doesn’t mean you’re guaranteed anything, it simply means you have a +100% chance of finding something.

Example:
Let’s say a blue item has a 1% chance of dropping.
You have 140% magic find.
Blue item now has 2.4% chance of dropping.

How?
1% is 100% (normal) drop rate.
+ 140% = 240% drop rate.
240% of 1% = 2.4%

But lvl82 jormag claymores and hunters aren’t. They hit really hard now!

Prior to patch I looted stable 1-3 rares per full run. Some days even 4, but that was super luck.
Now I loot nothing but green and blue trash.
