I'm about 85% through D:OS EE and I have to say that while it's not a bad game the randomness of the gear stats, crafting supplies or/and vendor wares is a BIG minus IMO.
Now, I don't care about loot from thrash mobs. You can always sell it and (theoretically) buy something more appropriate BUT:
1- loot from bosses should have been much more meaningful and what we got instead are divine items which are weaker than epic or armor/gear/weapons with the stupidest combination of stats imaginable!
2- if putting some sense into the gear was too much to ask, there should have been at least a possibility to craft some usefulness into the drops and purchases BUT
2a- you can up armor strength and price, add elemental protection and that's it!
2b- I have found only three rubies (all of them in chapter 1) which add elemental protection to the armor. THREE! Cap level is 20 and you can have up to 4 characters in your party!
2c- I have found only one scope (adding perception to the ranged weapons) also in chapter 1. Fucking ONE!
3- I haven't found Man at Arms Terror, Rage or Negate Resistances skill books despite looking in places recommended by divinity wikia. Which means that I have wasted Madora's 5 ability points to bring her to MaA 5 and she is using as her second master skill one I got rather than one I want. And I'm almost at the end of this game!
Now, I'm not saying that any of the mentioned crafting ingredients or skill books should be plentiful or easy to come by. But three, one and zero!?
