Loot on world map, stat dependent?

[frogmoth]

Recently i started my first PoE2 game (POTD), after a while i was unsatisfied with my character etc. and started again, this time with Berath's Blessing (Attribute boost) and encountered something curious: Most of the lootable locations on the world map (ship wrecks etc.) suddenly yielded far better items then in my first game (i found 2 spyglasses, a cloak of protection, some relatively powerful rings in the first 5 locations alone).

Therefore my question: Is the probability of finding loot somehow tied to the attributes? I couldn't find anything about that on the net.

Or maybe the new beta patch changed something in that regard?
