Yeah they basically fixed nothing in WSG.
this update hasn’t done anything to help as far as I seen black lotus still super high in AH and I haven found one in over 7 months
In my server’s case, it was 200g and now is 100g
Then you haven’t been looking.

Agreed, even with 20+ people in Burning Steppes on my server, I’ve found two lotus since the change without trying too hard.
noticed prices have started dropping slightly
Hey Guys,
I think you might need to revisit both of these issues. So far, since “this change” nothing in gameplay has changed. I have seen 1 black lotus between June and now (almost December). They do not exist, and the farmers have 100% control of the situation.
Additionally, WSG is a still a crap-shoot with people hopping through fences that are meant to be barriers, wall jumping, climbing inclines not intended to be climbed making it near impossible to stop a druid carrier.

No frivolous changes
There needs to be a major adjustment to blotus and plague bloom spawns…
Realistically the economies of several servers are out of control because the raiding populations are 12-20 times larger than a normal wow population with little being done to account for this massive change.
As much as I hate the bots, they actually were a solution to the failure to adjust spawn/drop raids for the increased population.
At this point myself and many others are practically begging for relief from extortionate level prices on major mana pots (only since the last bot fall off); plaguebloom, blotus, and recently dreamfoil.
Blizzard has several options they could take to solve this problem being increased spawn/drop rate.
Artificially balancing regulating ah by injecting supply in to bring costs down;
making blotus a random drop chance from all herbs world wide.
adding plague bloom spawns to instanced dungeoning to help normal non botters farm.
my preference is actually the injecting into the ah to regulate the economy as it’s the least subject to major market manipulation, botting, etc.
I’d like to point out that most raiding guilds do Onyxia once a week and they do Molten Core one night a week, so this is different groups that you’re seeing. On a lot of servers, we will see five to seven hundred people in Molten Core at prime-time every night of the week.
the 12 to 20 times is from distinct raid clears of end game raids…if you add in multiple splits for legacy or even current content then the 12 to 20 times is an underestimate of the demand on a market supply balanced for 2005 servers with a mere fraction of raiders.
This but for Flame Caps 
Why is black lotus even needed anymore? Are the classic servers not getting rolled over into wotlk where frost lotus is the focus ?
