Having to run a 10man raid to get leg/head enchants is obnoxious. Especially when there’s only 5 idol drops in the raid for 10+ people and everyone wants two of them.
The dolls even moreso since they’re completely RNG. Druid dolls are still 200+ gold on the AH. It’s mindboggling that this issue hasn’t been remedied yet.
Yeah that would be a huge win I think. Currently just living with not wanting to go back to ZG after accidentally putting one on the wrong pants. I suck lol
#1: Some people still need ZG for rep for shoulder enchants, EoM trinkets (ex: druid bis one) and if they added idols/dolls to real vendor, pretty much no geared person would run them anymore lol, good luck to all the alts/people leveling still in getting good groups together.
#2: dolls aren’t that bad to farm, once you do a clear run (or ask to join someone’s clear ID) you literally just pick up the panther stealth buff and can clear the piles around the panther temple solo easily, there’s youtube videos of people doing this back in classic and with the panther stealth it’s even EASIER. Shamans dolls are easily the most expensive and I got 5 of them in a day doing this on my shaman from like 3-4 runs. The piles take about an hour to respawn so just log outside and do a quick run again after an hour pass.
Also, join or create a group with a round robin on idol to guarantee only 5 people out of 10 get one. This is pretty common on my server/faction, not sure why you’d be in groups where someone is getting 2 idols…safest way to do this is master loot on each of the idol bosses to make sure no one is getting an extra one.
That doesn’t solve the problem of having to run a raid for leg/head enchants.
Rather, running a raid for a CHANCE of getting a single leg or head enchant. There’s a pretty good chance that you’ll run the raid and not get a single idol.
Actual appreciate this so much yes please have this done for our enchants makes not having to waste 30 minutes for RNG and farming 5 idols with raid of like 10-15
Obviously not everyone can do this because people need to fill the raid too, but if you’re geared, then just make the raid and HR 1 idol. I’ve had 0 issues filling groups and getting my idols doing this.
But we already did ZG. 2 phases ago. Multiple times. They already put T1 and T2 tokens on the real vendor. Why not enchants? Quite literally putting previous TIER tokens on the real vendor is a perfect example of why there should be no argument.
Running into an old raid to strictly farm 1 thing and trash the rest of the loot is just unnecessary. I would even be fine with the enchants costing 50-100 Real tokens.
Hot-take: ZG is still popular and is a 10-man. It didn’t need to have anything on the reals vendor.
This is not the same as BWL where people are shunned due to class specific loot. People constantly run ZG, and idols and EoM help keep it alive - mounts only go so far.
Because nobody will run zg if they add enchants. And if you need some other loot from zg you won’t be able to find a group, so they will need to add ALL zg loot to vendor in that case
People still run mc for bindings and big amount of coins
BWL - class trinckets
But nobody will run zg if they add enchants to vendor. Only EoM enjoyers, and they will roll 3 items for 10 players in that case, when you need 4 to get the trincket, simple mathematics 4*10/3=more then 12 lockouts will be needed avg if ppl will run zg only for EoM when enchants added to vendor
