TMJ vs less drops

[momo125]

It's great finding less junk early, but I can't keep up deeper
deeper i need shrooms of restore ect. new CCW was fine for most uniques but I couldn't find enough ! heal *heal* and life for greatest (anglorn, tarsq, sauroman ect)
also rods of light were easier to find before and key for my ranger/rg. sometimes even war
I think the new pseudo ID solves old TMJ (even though I think War got hosed with no new abbility , maybe rage or + 1 attack @ 25 and max 5 attacks(6 with +1))
maybe we need new class of drop ( now only norm, good and a few great), or OOD monsters should drop OOD items
really like no *ID, shops don't seem to get better as I dive though

Less junk, fewer drops. (Fewer peas, less mash.)

FWIW I think Takkaria plans to adjust drops a little for 3.1.1 (more stat potions and fewer ego weapons, something like that).

Although there are less items, you should find them in larger quantities.
So perhaps as you dive into the dungeon, items should appear in bigger 'stacks' so you can accumulate needed items faster.

Hm, yesterday my paladin killed some of the unique dragons and got almost nothing useful.
"Good" drops from Smaug are somewhat ridiculous - who needs +/+ weapons or armor that deep in the dungeon? Smaug should drop at least ego items (which are junk anyway in most cases, like weapons of slay foe or such).
