The "Rare" combustion hellfire (legendary smg) is pretty rare, I'm not denying that BUT, I have found 8 OMG 8! different versions of it, all of them were the same name, color and sort of the same stats (x4 fire).

however 1one of them had a low fire rate, other high, one scoped, one none scoped etc

My last one (best one so far)

has 12.5 fire rate and 144 dmg and good accuracy (in the 80's) it should be great right? (with x4 fire dmg) well the reload is awful, it's like your trying to push a damn tank.

but just after this I found another legendary smg, one that regenerates ammo. and I played that one for a long time till my proficiency with smg's was 30' ish (higher now) so the reload is bearable.

so has anyone expierenced this; finding pretty much the same legendary weapon over and over again?

I've found a host of purple

I've found a host of purple items (esp. class mods) and a half dozen or so orange items.  I though these were supposed to be crap-your-pants-when-you-find-one rare.  Not "oh look, another orange weapon that I can't use" rare.

The rare items in this game

The rare items in this game are very disappointing.  I used to rely heavily on Combat Rifles and found a pretty decent legendary rifle, the Desert something...roughly 98 damage, scoped, shoots in bursts; nice for distanced headshots.  Well, a green quickly replaced that in Playthrough 2.  Now Shotguns have completely replaced my love for Combat Rifles. 

From what I've seen, blue items enjoy the greatest amount of use.  Most purple items I find are sub-standard when compared to a blue item, which really is a shame.  Perhaps it is just my luck.
