Can a get a real answer instead of flamewar? Please?

So, my question is: Why is it so hard to just go into this game's configs(or whatever it's called) and change the chance of getting legendary item from 0.01% to 10-15%? Literally, it shouldn't take THAT much time.

Because it's not a fancy configurations file with a number you can just change and the magic happens, instead drops are set via massive JSON data that gets processed by hundreds of lines of undocumented overly-engineered code that no one knows for sure how it works anymore.

It's not like Gato wants to hide it from you, much less like knowing the drops would make them drop more legendaries.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯


To quote Alexander from a couple days ago:

"I know how it works I think, but it still has some odd behaviors
E.g. I dont know why it sometimes doesnt give a premium paint if its listed as an extra item"
