This is most noticeable in the late game. Each difficulty is different in how rapidly it reduces item count per level; Beginner has a flatter curve, while Hardcore has a steeper curve. Item spawning is still random, but generally not as scarce.

changedBalance ChangesRevamped the way secrets spawn so that they have less of an overall impact on the game; some secrets can still contain very good loot, not so good loot, and even monsters, but there are now far less secrets on any given level and they more frequently spawn in larger blank areas instead of on obscure corners.
