If the loot was better / more varied with a wider variety of useful stats, it wouldn't be such a problem.
E.g. I've lost count of the number of orange robes I've gotten, yet I don't think I've ever had an orange bracers / rope. Orange boots and gloves that have suitable stats are incredibly rare.
That is all from 4 full playthroughs where I've save scummed for loots.
