Well we learned from the Blizzcon interviews

  1. Patch 10.2 legendary comes from Fyrakk and is similar in acquisition to the Evoker 10.1 legendary, but not exactly the same.

  2. The legendary axe from Fyrakk in Patch 10.2 will have bad luck protection from the start of the raid opening.

Didn’t they learn anything from the whole Evoker legendary? My Dracthyr never got a legendary and now she never will be able to get it since the raid is done nobody will want to do it anymore.

Why did they go with another sub 1% drop rate? I feel like they don’t listen to feedback. Oh and the bad luck protection did nothing for my Evoker so I wouldn’t count on that helping anything.

How I would do it is 4 kills = win guaranteed drop quest easy peasy!

LFR: 1% drop rate, that is ADDITIVE every week. On week 6, you have a 6% drop rate.

Normal: 3%, week 6 is a 18% drop rate, etc etc

Heroic: 10%

Mythic: 25%

The whole point isn’t just to get it. But to get it early enough that you can ENJOY IT, too.

I think this can reasonably be attained in Heroic, just as I think this is the difficulty most people push. I gotta be honest, it’s a little lame to have (musical fanfare) LEGENDARY things … come from Normal/LFR, so I have a much lower drop rate baked in. But it’s still POSSIBLE.

But if you want a LEGENDARY item, you should at least be pushing Heroic.

Yeah say that to one of my guildies who has yet to get it and we do heroic Sark every week. In fact the other Dracthyr we have only got it like 2 weeks ago.

Well that’s the old system, which we all agree sucks.

What I’m recommending IS NOT THAT. What I’m recommending would all but guarantee you the item around 1/3rd of the way through the season. I think that’s more than fair for a WORST case scenario.

Well Fated raids are coming back in Season 4, so you’ll have more chances then.

IIRC they didn’t raise the ilvl of the Sylv bow in Fated Slands raids, so there’s a chance it will be useless anyway.

My evoker has 11 Heroic Sark kills under his belt and never had the legendary drop.

11

Bad Luck Protection for Evokers was only in Heroic+. I assume it will be the same here.

12

They did, and they even allowed people who got it outside of fated to upgrade it to a fated version.

13

Yea, for a dinar.

Then people like me who never got it to drop got screwed over cause it was BiS for another raid tier with a godly low drop rate.

14

“Similar” & “not exactly the same” = “just like evoker confirmed”
GD is a wonderful place.

Well w/e … I was posting a “how I would do it” suggestion.

I wasn’t implying how it did/does/will work.

Just, rather, “how I would do it.” And imvho, my system is VASTLY superior. This from someone whose raid went THE ENTIRETY of S1 and never saw The Bow drop ONE TIME. NOT ONCE!!!

That’s enough of a complaint in a raid that only had one Hunter. But I would think it’s quite common to have two Hunters. To think that NEITHER would get it… is just STUPID and inexcusable game design.

16

I think there will be a lot more complaining this time around last time it was just evokers now its warrior, paladin and dk, that will be like "I killed Fyrakk 20 times and no legendary.

Ahh Good so that means the Axe will be a forever legendary instead of a requirement.

18

Yeah I’m not a fan of this for any legendaries. I am not a high key pushers or raider, so it won’t impact me but for people pushing 30+ keys there will be a divide between what can be achieved with the RNG axe and what cannot.

19

I have a question…

Are legendaries supposed to be rare?

Or are we siding with “every single class who can use it should get one”.

Because the latter defeats the purpose of “legendary”.

Although it would be amazing (everyone having the 2h axe),

…it kinda takes away from the “legendary” aspect.

Just my 2 cents on the topic.

From a thematic standpoint not everyone should get one, but from a competitive aspect let take a team of BDK tank, Aug Evoker, and the top 3 dps… the team who’s tank has the leggo probably has a ceiling 2-3 keys higher than the other. That feels really bad for something based heavily on RNG
