So hear me out - on WL3 I was seeing a lot of ancestral loot and potential up/side grades right?

I assumed it would be the same if not better on WL4.

No. It seems like I see more Sacred leggos than anything else. And when I do get an ancestral its a magic or "rare" one - and should I manage to score a leggo? Its a downgrade outright. I'm struggling to find upgrades even in nightmare dungeons (not pushing hard high lvl ones yet but you would assume one at your same level would provide one side grade at least).

It feels like rather than grinding for fun items - I'm grinding for gear just to stay alive. Anyone else seeing this same issue??
