Couldn't loot from King Mechagon

I was part of a group that killed King Mechagon. I died during phase 2 and fell into the abyss (possibly from Magneto-Arm?). When I released spirit, I was unable to loot King Mechagon. This was my second King Mechagon kill so I should at least have recieved Blueprint: Perfectly Timed Differential. I was using Essence Vision of Perfection rank 1 as my major during the encounter. I thought it shouldn’t be a problem, I’ll send a ticket and it should get resolved.

First response from a Specialist Game Master went like this:

"This Blueprint: Perfectly Timed Differential only drops on your first King Mechagon kill after looting and learning the Engine of Mecha-Perfection. Engine of Mecha-Perfection is the Rank 1 item that grants the Essence Vision of Perfection.

For most players, this means they’ll only loot the Blueprint on their second kill. Their first kill would give them the Engine of Mecha-Perfection (Rank 1), and then their second kill would give them the Blueprint: Perfectly Timed Differential (which is the blueprint to craft Rank 2).

Note that if players loot but do not learn the Engine of Mecha-Perfection (Rank 1), they will not receive Blueprint: Perfectly Timed Differential. This is intended, and works this way for all Essences. Players will need to visit the Forge, learn the Essence, and then kill King Mechagon again to loot the Blueprint.https://www.wowhead.com/item=169172/blueprint-perfectly-timed-differential#comments:id=3141088"

Great but that doesn’t apply to me since I was already using this Essence, during the encounter even. Second response from a Specialist Game Master went like this:

“I completely understand the frustration of not getting loot as well as not receiving a suitable explanation for why this happened. I reviewed the logs for that kill and, while Maconedouble was definitely in the party that killed King Mechagon, she did not land any attacks on the boss to be eligible for loot.”

I definitely landed attacks on Omega Blaster (phase 2) during my group’s kill so I’m at a loss here. I have 2 King Mechagon kills in character’s statistics panel and King Mechagon has an x next to him in the adventure guide indicating that I killed him this week. Would really appreciate any assistance!

Well you can selct i still have a problem and get another GM to look at it keep in mind the GM have better tools then we do the answer maybe the same.

You may have been too far from the boss when it died to count as being in on the kill.

This makes sense as to why I was unable to loot. I’m going to include this in my reasoning in the next ticket I open. Thanks for the feedback. It sucks that I’m not eligible for loot because I died to one of the encounter’s mechanics after being present and contributing.

I hate to say it, but you’ve already had a specialist look at the logs and if they can’t give you the loot, then you’ll just have to try again. There’s no “pleading your case”. If their logs don’t support it, which the specialist mentioned, then there’s always your next run.

Because you weren’t listed on the kill, a GM would be unable to award you loot. Even if you contributed to the kill. Another GM looking at it won’t change the results. Encounter mechanics won’t change the results. Unfortunately, you will need to run it again.
