T15 maps drop almost the same loot as T1 maps

IDK guys but I get a feeling that except the higher item bases high tier maps drop not as much better loot as they're supposed to. Couple of minutes ago I had a t15 map with 100% increased rarity and 50% increased quantity, but only got regal shards and blue currency. I completed only a half of it before die, but then I ran the t1 map with just two random modifiers (cause whatever) on the same spot and the first rare encounter dropped me an exalt.

I don't believe this is how it should be. I really suspect lower tiers be more loot buffed than the higher ones, or at least the difference between them is not as huge as it should be.

Well, I have good news for you because that's definitely not how it be. Firstly, bad RNG happens. Your results from a single map aren't representative of long-term expected returns. Second, you didn't finish the map so even with normal luck it's not a good comparison.

Also worth mentioning that a T15 Waystone is just a very small part of the equation here. There's an enormous range between running a Normal T15 Waystone on a node with 0 active towers and no features to running a fully-juiced Rare T15 on an irradiated, cleansed, or corrupted node w/ a boss and 3 active towers. Both T15s but with very different expectations for loot.

Loot after 0.2.0g feels absolutely great to me - I would call it generous at this point.

Just did a quick T15 and came out with ~25 exalts worth of currency, some boots with a perfect Fire Res roll, and a Sceptre that looks like it might be worth tinkering with.

If you can run a T1 and come away with a similar haul I'll be pretty damn impressed.

One being a waste of time, the latter being a colossal waste of it.

No minion skills is automatic vendor tier. Plus cast speed doesn’t synergize in any way with added attack damage. Boots aren’t 35% movespeed so those are regal shard territory as well

A rare T7 waystone with a rarity mod drops better loot than a rare T15 without a rarity mod

Loot needs to be tied to difficulty otherwise what's the point of doing anything other than buying iiq/iir tablets and easy waystones

100% IIR is pretty small change. I have that much on my gear and running a plain T15 waystone without any tower influence will net 1-3 exalt drops per map on average. But from your post alone, I would infer that you don't have much experience in T15 maps, so you wouldn't have the information at hand to make the comparison accurately.

Experience gain and completing the Atlas tree are the first and most obvious factors. You also cannot find a plethora of end game items in low tier maps. High tier skill gems, various unique items, and rares will not have the ability to roll the high tier affixes.

I mean a blue T15 with just a rarity prefix is more profitable than a 3 suffix map

Just doesn't seem right to me

Cool dude. Setting aside the fact that I specifically said I took the boots to pull the max fire res roll, even without the gear I still pulled 25 exalts from the map.
