I managed to get into a group for just normal Gallywix; no way I am running the entire raid right now. In any case, I got a quest that opens up the Darkfuse rep afterwards… so yeah, they’re locking people who dislike raiding out of farming this rep for another week (as story mode fight is not available until then). Not cool.
soo last RAID drops the quest lame, they always have to time gate everything people want to do
After defeating Gallywix there’s a letter that starts a quest in the hotel. After completing the quest you start gaining market research from stuff.
Rares seem to drop about 4 to 5, and the scrap heaps seem to drop more. Haven’t checked if anything else does; but I’m pretty sure I got some of regular mobs too (rarely).
Story mode bosses don’t drop anything. The rewards from that mode come from the quest given. I wouldn’t expect this quest-starter item to drop outside of LFR or higher.
they arent going to lock people out 3 weeks that would give to much of an advantage
Since N is open now, they’re not “locking people out” of anything. The content is available, if players choose not to engage in it, that’s not Blizzard’s fault.
Raid will have a catch up that is difficultly agnostic.
ANYWAY…
So handing in 100 market research to get a Darkfuse box gives you 500 rep. You start at neutral.
Edit - Rep token was in the box.
No it does not drop from the boss. After you’ve defeated him you then have a quest in the hotel. I am quite sure story mode will suffice for this as well.
