    Alexander loot still broken?

    I know that 4 items drop now, and it's great, don't get me wrong. But...It seems as if the more "Sought after" items are still only dropping 1 at a time.

    A1: 6 runs : 1 accessory drop each run.
    A2: 4 runs: 1 accessory drop each run.
    A3: 13 runs: 1 spring drop each run
    A4: 5 runs: 1 shaft drop each run.

    Particularly focusing on A3/A4 here, where pretty much anyone that's trying to finish out their left side for savage progression is rolling on spring/shaft exclusively. Anyone else notice this? Any reports of multiples dropping? If in fact this change made it so it's 1 drop per run, the problem isn't truly fixed.

    It's still entirely RNG, I've had two Shafts drop on a run of A4 and 2 Pedals on either A1 or A2.

    Alright, that's good to hear. Still...In my opinion it should always be double shaft from A4...I mean, it just makes more sense.

    Alexander's drop system actually always drops exactly one of each item, and the fourth item is a random item out of the three possible drops.

    I've had more people go for the Spring than the Shaft in some parties, and when all the people are done with their chest piece they'd want Springs too. Doesn't really make sense to have two Shafts per run.
