Are Players Receiving Less Raid Loot in Season of Discovery Phase 3?
14.04.2024 - 20:09 / wowhead.com / Josh Greenfield
As players continue to clear the 20-player Sunken Temple raid, they've started to notice that they're receiving fewer pieces of loot than in previous Phases. While each boss is dropping more pieces of loot, the increase in player requirement as well as a change to the lockout cadence is leaving players wondering if the development team made a mistake.
Players have taken to Reddit, Twitter, and the Official Forums to share their feedback about the Sunken Temple loot situation. One commenter even broke it down and suggested that the Sunken Temple bosses should be dropping up to 10 pieces of loot in order to compensate for the number of players per raid and weekly lockout.
As has been said in other posts, to compensate, each boss in ST would need to drop AT LEAST 8-9 pieces of loot. And thats with a lot of room. If you dont count 2 ids per week but 2.33, its closer to 10 per boss.
As it stands, we arent even at 6 on average.
When asked about this discrepancy, WoW Classic Senior Game Producer Josh Greenfield stated that the team considered increasing the amount of loot that drops per boss, but that it just didn't feel right. In future Phases, the team hopes to provide useful loot from a variety of different content types — including Crafting, PvP, Reputations, Dungeons, and more quests similar to The Wild Gods.
It’s 5 or more items up from 2 and set piece tokens are on every boss. You’ll gear up fast and there’s a lot of other sources for gear to tide you over until you get to things from the raid. We toyed with even more drops per boss but it really just started to feel not quite right. In general going forward I think we want to try to aim for you have options between different activities to gear up so we don’t just have raiding be the only thing you ever want to do to progress.
Especially at 60, we have a lot of vectors for this (crafting, pvp, reputations, dungeons, and potentially more wild gods-esque deterministic systems). This feels better to us than just throwing the kitchen sink at you in the raids.
After several lockouts, how do you feel about Sunken Temple's loot distribution? Do you expect to be able to reach full BiS before the end of the Phase? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
