The same logic that applies to why holding the library is easier now applies to the entire quest. People weren't double invising and lev tricking off the pillar to get to Drusella's room 2 minutes after zoning in and then soloing her, it would have been a multi-hour clear of South and the front of East to even get a chance at a rare drop from a 24 hour respawn. Then farming another rare drop from Juggs. That's only after killing thousands of mobs to even be able to start the quest.
As it is this looks to be based on post-Luclin loot tables the same as Hammered Golden Loop, the Pearly Sarnak Bauble, the beastlord arms, the "No Pet" tagged proc weapon and whatever else is not classic and is or was dropping. A lot of Chardok loot was changed after Luclin.
