Found my first Legendary

After nearly 100 hours of play:

Dropped from a chest in Act 3 Normal, on my way to the Act Boss. Almost missed it because the item colour was very similar to the colour of the ground.

Congrats! I remember the buzz I got finding my 1st Legendary in act 1 NM... Would have cracked open a beer if it hadn't been so early in the day!

Savour the moment....

Hope the changes to Legendaries are retroactive, and that drop rates on them are at least trippled.

Yesterday, after hitting lvl 60 I changed gear to max MF I could buy on GAH and today - first legendary in act 2 desolated sands after popping some object, Obsidian Ring of the Zodiac drops :-)
Strange thing is than 15 minutes later in Zoltan's archives another such ring dropped but with worse stats.

@Shagsbeard: I'm 90% sure I saw in one blue post on official forums that changes won't be retroactive, we'll have to find new legendaries to see changed stats.

Thx. I might just hang on to this so I can look at it in 10 years' time

It's not.... sadly...

...In addition, we’re planning to just straight-out buff Legendary items in a future patch, likely the PvP patch (1.1). These buffs will not be retroactive, and so they’ll only apply to new Legendary items found after the patch. In the long term, we’re looking at simply expanding the affix diversity and unique bonuses of Legendary items, and we’ll be able to share more details after the PvP patch.
