Don't understand that comment about legendaries. I had none before and the couple I've gotten since the patch have all been equipped as useful upgrades.
I am playing since patch, and here is something interesting:
With the exception of Skeleton King after resetting my quests, this was the ONLY boss which actually dropped legs.
I don't think that any other boss OR ANY OTHER ELITE PACK did EVER drop anything of value. The good drops, legs and sets all came from random crap, barrels etc. and special events.
Which effectively means that fighting elite packs AND bosses has become totally worthless, in fact it's only a waste of time and nuisance....which makes the entire game ABSURD.
It's the "I hope some effing barrel drops a legendary while I AVOID (!) all bosses and elite packs"-Game! Because you KNOW that every boss or elite pack won't drop you ANYTHING worthwhile,at least at my gear level!
When difficult fights (bosses, packs) don't get rewarded whatsoever you should ask yourself WHY you actually play this. I do this right now. And I honestly don't know why I am fighting packs or bosses. For 3 or 4 shitty yellows? While some legendary may be hidden in a barrel the room next over.
ABSURD.
LOL @ you playing D3 like my dog. My dog found a salmon steak in the garbage can ONCE and has lived his entire life camped next to the trash can thinking it's a salmon steak vending machine.
You probably happened to get ONE legendary from a barrel and now you play D3 obsessively breaking every barrel in the game.

I think I've found a good farm route (simply running Cathedral 4 over and over). If anyone wants to do T4 or so, let me know. I found a decent Frozen Orb build. Thankfully, all that APOC still works and my Chondos Force had increased crit change of Frozen Orb!!

Nonsense.
There is nothing around the fact that more legs drop from barrels or trash or goblins than from bosses or elite packs.
Go collect 20 or so legs and then see how many came actually from tougher bosses or elites. And then it's legit to wonder what actually the point of fighting elites or bosses is, respective what actually the point of the entire game (aka killing elites/bosses as being the main goal) is.
It's my understanding that even in Torment there are simply the overall odds increased that legs drop (as is the description for the difficulty sliders)..but legs CAN (in theory) drop from anything...they CAN drop from a barrel, goblin or if you're lucky YES they can also, occasionally, drop from a boss or a pack.
But this is an absurd system because it means that RNG and a "general likelihood" that legs are dropping from whatever have preference over going for/fighting hard mobs....while in pretty much any other game you're rewarded by your effort..eg. you KNOW that a certain, tough fight MIGHT yield a good item...here it's all RNG and some even is on a timer (eg. the 90mins alleged leg drop timer). It doesn't make any effing sense WHATSOEVER.
Indeed, your wizz is pretty bad ass!
I'm having fun rebuilding my DH whenever I find a new legendary that looks decent. I just swapped out my nat's reflection ring (giving up the 7% CC bonus) and took a hit to my DPS (from 290 down to 260 I think) so I could use a new ring with 450 vit and a massive life per second buff. It pretty much doubled my toughness, and with all the changes to the skills, it works out pretty well.
Everyone has a 50% increased experience gain buff that lasts until march 24th!
