*Smart Loot System will be returning to Dablo 4*

Smart Loot is part of the Loot 2.0 system introduced to Diablo 3 in the D3v2 revision, and also seen in Reaper of Souls.

Smart Loot refers to the game's tendency to roll item types and/or affixes appropriate for the class of the character that finds or crafts or gambles the item. This does not happen with every item, but about 85% of item drops (Smart Drops) or item rolls (via crafting and gambling) will roll with bonuses suited to the class of the character that finds or crafts or gambles the item.

In addition, class-restricted items will never roll with an inappropriate mainstat or +skill bonus for their designed class. This applies no matter what class finds the item, since while smart drops mean you will usually find items suited to your class, there is some randomness in the drops. For instance, no matter which class finds them, items like Monk fist weapons will never roll with Int or Str, Wizard sources will never roll with Str or Dex, etc.

This does not mean these items will always roll with the appropriate mainstat and/or skill bonus, since those are random affixes. It just means a class-specific item will never roll with a mainstat or skill bonus that would be useless to its intended class.

You probably tried to figure out if someone here thinks smart loot is a good idea?

And I hope you understand that smart loot comes out from main stat concept, which by itself is entirely garbage design of role playing system.

Smart loot is a total bullshit mechanic.The only reason to introduce this to D3 was the fact that Blizzard agressively restricted trading and also randomized most rolls on unique (or in d3 legendary) items. A good ARPG doesnt need or want this crap.
