They reallllly suck as you basically wasted your time for nothing at all.

I play with 4 buddies so we have a solid 5 man group and we only do dungeons with each other.
We all got to 155 for heroics without even doing all 8 dungeons and I think 3/5 of us are above ilvl 170 and we’ve done 3 mythics so far.
The rng really doesn’t seem that bad but again it’s rng so it’s possible you could do 10 dungeons and get nothing.
Also there are other ways to get gear like the honor vendor which sells pretty cheap gear. There’s also the world boss in the maw which can drop a 183 piece.
Edit: I do think there should be a system based on bosses you’ve killed.
So every boss you kill gives you “X” chance for loot to drop, increasing each time you kill a boss without receiving any loot. Raid and dungeons buffs would be separate obviously.

2 of 3 LFD pugs in leveling got me nothing. I mean the gear is crap but still…I’d have liked an item to sell at least lol.
Kind of reinforced why I was never really into current expac dungeons and not a mythic or or heroic fan. I kind of like to see something for 15 minutes+ or work that needs coordination with people
Where as right now with so many rare hunting parties out 20 minutes could in theory net me 3 decent kills with a chance at good gear. Or…gear I can at least sell/disenchant.

id settle for getting either an outright gear drop…or when you dont get a gear drop you get a token of sorts that adds +5 - +10 or whatever to one piece of gear you have. It’d take a while to get your ilvl up doing that and you’d end up trading off a piece of a better drop anyway, but at least it would make it feel like we didnt just waste our time entirely.

Ya no. We don’t need yet another expansion of being bis from 2 weeks of playing the game.

So far, I’m 2/3 getting nothing, though one was, I believe, my BIS (normal) shoulders, so that’s okay. It’s RNG, it’s a crapshoot. Dungeons seem to be designed around 4 pieces of loot, so at least one player always gets stiffed.
You’re having bad RNG. We ran 3 dungeons last night and I got 4 blue boss drops. I expect the next 3 I run will probably be no loot, that is just how it goes.
Just bring back valor points already. That was built in RNG protection and it did the job.

I thought they were expanding crafting this time around to compensate for RNG. I would like to see tier piece tokens come back but if they institute a “Valor equivalent” it will probably be something like the Titanium Residuum we had last time, which didn’t seem to be that popular.
The amount of entitlement these days is insane. People herald wrath as being the one of the best expansions ever, but you could literally go a whole week of running dungeons, do every raid available, valor cap, and still not get a piece of loot. BC was even worse in terms of getting gear. But here we are, people complaining that they aren’t getting showered in gear and that they wasted 30 minutes of their life on a dungeon.

But you could craft nice 70 pieces in BC and almost anyone could farm the mats for a decent piece of gear by killing snakes or whatever. They eventually had those things on Sunwell island (Justice tokens I think? I can’t remember)

I did 3 Mythic dungeons this morning and got 1 piece of loot. RNG is RNG and it is frustrating as well.
It once took me 21 boss kills to get a Trinket I needed in Siege. That was 3 times the average RNG (double that with extra luck rolls). My guild still makes fun of me about that.

Took weeks of farming.
That was the end of expansion where they were giving loot out like candy. “Welfare epics” was what they were called. This is the beginning of the expansion.
Done 5 today with friends, 4 of which dropped nothing. 1 dropped something for each of us, but for the wrong spec (WITH loot spec on)
“Less loot, but more meaningful”
Sure Blizz,

There’s another forum post just like this one, maybe contribute to that one other than posting another.
Yes sometimes RNG can really suck for some people, sometimes you can get 3 pieces of gear from a run, it’s all based on luck. Don’t give up hope, just keep killing.
BC had Karazan which was a Loot Piñata. Did you guys forget that?
By the end of the expansion they should be giving it out like candy because the game is almost over and most people just want to get some alts ready for the next expac.
I would agree. We’re not at the end of the expansion though. Polar opposite in fact.
