I really don't think the legendary drop rate they have going now warrants BoA. I just went 3 hours without a drop and it makes me sad. Ya I know, RNG is RNG sigh.

I get enough drops but I have like 9 belts and 10 amulets, with another 10 shitty weapons.

A good amount of the time as a monk requires holding down left click(spirit gen) and alternating other abilities. The left click has this problem where if you hold it down and quickly move it from target to target as they die, you'll keep moving to them and attacking them. But if spend even a split second hovering over the ground, it switches to "left click to move" and I run around like an idiot for a short bit before reorienting. This becomes more problematic versus hard to click mobs and if I have any run speed buffs. Bosses will do this to, for some reason. Just spamming spirit gen and LTK, all of a sudden my character decides to move around Azmodan like she's trying to jog through his stomach.
What I want is right click functionality. Holding down right click works all the time. If a mob gets in your way as you try to move to where the mouse is, it will use the right click skill. I'd switch up the bindings but blizzard has designed a lot of other parts of the game around left clicking. I don't want to miss clicking loot and accidentally dashing strike. And they've severely limited what you can actually put in the left click slot.
Any other fixes to this?

Out of the 9 legendaries I got last run, 5 were rings(technically one was a natalya so set ring, not legendary, and it fucking sucks too). I have 3 60 bulkathos ring and 1 56ish now, can start a collection.
3hours without a legendary seems kinda shitty though, guess really unlucky, I generally don't go more than 1h30 or so without one, and often gets them more often than that. I do break every jar, crates and barrels I come across though, and I get a lot from these.
Deathwing, just hold position attack? Probably because of playing PoE so much but that's what I do all the time now, cause if you don't in PoE you end up following a mob that desynced and end up in the middle of a room full of chaos snakes or whatever ^^. It even repositions with the dashing monk skills so that's not an issue, but against large bosses and shit they don't move much anyway so never need to adjust, just hold and left click/right click. I bound mine to spacebar instead of shift as I hate having shift pressed for long periods of time(fuck sprinting games).

I got 3 in a row in 3 games earlier. I have no idea what the point of Blackthorn's chest is though. It's absolutely worthless and I've got 2 in 2 days.

But now my pinky hurts
Seriously, it does. Maybe I'll try space. I tried binding shift functionality to mouse 4, just wasn't as smooth.

Really having a blast aging this game. I'm currently leveling a witch doctor on torment 1 using the spec posted a few pages back. All those pets at one time is pure rapage. How easy or hard is to obtain a hell fire ring now? I would like to get a strength based one for my crusader. I remember doing the fight once and I got my ass handed to me with the combo that had Grom.

Yeah that's why I changed it to space, it's easy to keep pressed all the time, I hate shift for anything. I bind it to space in every game of this genre, which is why I fucking hated playing the xmen beta cause you couldn't rebind it and it was painful(well that and the game played like shit, heard it got better though). I also have the same issue otherwise, in this and poe alike, where if you left click shit and it dies you'll often start moving which is awful in a lot of cases. I guess from what you're saying it's worse though since it moves even when the target doesn't die sometimes, which sucks.But now my pinky hurts

And Nola for the Hellfires, it's easy, but annoying as shit. Basically it's RNG bullshit all over, before the patch it was RNG to get the keys but then you could have someone really geared carry you and get a guaranteed ring out of it(and they'd get one for free so you didn't have to pay them for helping you and people were willing to do it often). Now though they nerfed the droprates because they're assholes.
Basically the process, and I'm simplfiying there's recipe buying and shit, is you farm the 4 wardens in each act, look it up for the locations, you have to be 60 and in torment 1 at least and they drop keys. 25% chance for torment 1 up to 50% for torment 6. Then once you have the keys, you use them to craft machines, 1 of each keys makes a machine, you need 4 machines now for a ring I believe(used to be 3 but they thought nerfing the droprates wasn't enough so there's 1 more machine and 1more key for each machine). Then you use the machines to open portals to the uber bosses and kill them, and they SOMETIMES drop an organ, same rates as the keys, 25 to 50% which sucks since it used to be 100% for that part. You combine all 4 organs to make a hellfire ring with a main stat you choose(plans for each main stat).
The bosses aren't particularily hard but they're not super easy either and leaving the game means you lose your machines. Also I don't know if they changed it but the machines pop a random portal, so let's say you have 3 organs and only need one specific to finish your ring, you still might need 4 machines to open the right portal(and then still need to get the organ from this). That's a fuckton of farming to be honest. But with a good route and a fast character like a barb, monk or DH and some good DPS you can farm the keys very quickly, it's just fucking stupid how RNG the shit is.
If you're in the rerolled guild I assume you can find people who also want hellfire and farm in groups, organs drop for everyone in the group so for example 4people can each bring one machine and you get a chance at all 4organs, it's a lot less annoying if you do it that way.

Just to clarify: there's only 3 organs, 3 portals, and 3 keys from the 3 keywardens. The 4th warden in Act 4 drops the Infernal machine recipe.

Ah thought that was patched in also, so only 3 keys and 3machines then, guess it's not that bad. The 70 Hellfire is gonna suck though unless there's changes to drop rates.
Actually there's a legendary drop timer, and your chance of finding a legendary begins to increase gradually until one drops for you. 3 hours seems like a rare occurrence.
I've seen alot of reports on forums that this is not currently working if it's supposed to be in, there's people saying they've gone 5+ hours with nothing.
Then again, I just witnessed someone in my clan get 2 legendary drops within 2 minutes.

The blue post that had the info on the hidden timer said it's time spent "in combat". Maybe the people who say they go 5 hours without a legendary spend a lot of time in town, afk, or terribly inefficient farm routes. Then again, it's more likely they just exaggerated the 5 hours. I seem to get a legendary every 90 minutes of farming in the worst of times.

With certain bosses having 100% legendary on first kill, it's not that hard to make it look they are raining
