I mean... It's the exact same thing. "we didn't limit the number of mods, only the intensity..." Which essentially means nothing over 8 mods will drop because it will always hit the intensity cap before you get to the 9th or 10th mod. When you're fighting shadow guard, corgul, or Osiris you're already getting a significant boost to loot quality. The intensity of those properties are expected to be high. You won't get 14 properties with their intensities low... The loot tables just don't work that way.
Le sigh. I hate it
