I'll go ahead and post my loot from yesterday. Since I did two Hard runs and only one Ragnarok run, though, I'll go ahead and add my loot from the Ragnarok run the night before so comparison is easier. Please note that these are only the high-tier green materials. I did not include Coal, but I can remember that I get much more of that in Ragnarok than Hard. I can add more loot reports in the future either here or through PM, if anyone would like this information.
Ragnarok 1:
1 x Sulphur
1 x Zinc Shard
Hard 1:
1 x Bronze Arrowhead
1 x Water of Hvergelmir
Ragnarok 2:
1 x Sulphur
Hard 2:
1 x Bear Fur
1 x Water of Hvergelmir
1 x Wood of Glasir
1 x Small Lump of Lead
Sooo, at least Ragnarok is good for Sulphur
Now for legendary thingies. I have played this game for over 2000 hours (I think I am nearing 2500 now if I include the time I spent in Native) and have found 4 legendary items, a Thunder Pike, Pike of Kings, Studded Gauntlets, and lastly a Sun Pike (yes, the game wants me to be a pikeman). That is one drop roughly every 500 hours spent (oddly enough, those are about the times I got them as well, give or take ten or twenty hours). This is both a lot of kiting time, in which I got a lot of green drops and zero legendary ones, and through team play, in which I'd typically get very far, either wave 16 or 20 in most cases. I suppose a good portion of that was spent leveling up a new character.
As far as what I have already seen in the thread, I agree with both Harlaus and Maroon, and I support both of their solutions. An amendment I would like to make to Maroon's idea, though, would be to make most of the green drops easier to get and more required in crafting, but keep some of the more expensive or rare ones the same so that there is a mix of medium, high, and very high tier materials.
