...they're not removing it from the system. Instead, they're incentivizing it -- or, if you prefer to be a bit more pessimistic, turning final boss Eregos into a loot pinata in the most direct way possible. Zarhym's announced that those who happen to get Heroic Oculus with the random dungeon finder and stick it out to the end will find their own personal loot bag in Eregos' cache. The bags will contain two extra Emblems of Triumph, rare gems, and a chance at the Reins of the Blue Drake, formerly the rare mount drop from 10-man Malygos. To make up for the switch, the Reins of the Azure Drake will have a chance to drop from both 10-man and 25-man Malygos.
I think this is awesome! Thought i'd share I never had a problem running Occulus and i'm hoping this will stop the people dropping out the random group straight away

Well I used to like it, until I ran it this morning with possibly the worst group ever. I don't think I've wiped that many times on a heroic ever
But you gotta love free mounts! So yeah, this can only be a good thing! |

You can only get the drake when Oculus is randomly selected, so it can't be farmed I am afraid.

This sucks. I hate the idea that people get bonus loot just for joining random ****. My already low opinion of blizzard just got lower.

I'm with you Alchy, but I choose to look at it like this.
Everyone have easy acces to gear now adays, so what makes the differense!?
The player!
It's going in the direction of "bring the player" instead of all the omg link stats bbq zor "bring the gear".
(I know, this is a rough statement which ofc isn't true in all circumstances. But still... =)

yea, I'm with you aswell Alchy, no doubt. Blizzard is indeed taking a path of wich everyone can get geared really fast, and with less effort. But blizzard wants to reach every player out there, so I think they have to do something like this, otherwise alot of people would find it to hard to get gear. But yea, wow is getting easier and easier as we go along. |
