This weekend I finally got around to starting to farm for Hyperthread Wristwraps. I cleared workshop four times (2x heroic, Mythic+11, Mythic+12). No luck so far.
Talking to the raider fire mage in my guild, he got his on his first try.
Also, another raider in my guild got his on a his mage alt from the weekly chest. His alt lucked out too. He got 475 Hyperthread Wristwraps with socket and the Corruption that increases mastery from all sources.
How many tries did it take you? I’m now at 4 tries and am curious how many more tries I should expect to need before I can try fire spec.

I ran approx 15-20 workshops for VoP rank 3 and weekly 15s. No wrists. I’m not bothered by this because I don’t want them anyway. But just noting that it’s entirely possible that obtaining them will be a pain.
First time doing a workshop key I got them, 460 with haste corruption. I assumed they had a high drop chance because that never happens to me.
My first trip to the workshop yielded 385 wrists. Two more dropped at 415 by the time I obtained rank 3 of Vision of Perfection.
me n my friend both got it first try using a reroll token on m0, his got a socket mine got avoidance zzz
Five attempts of Mechagon heroic. The difference for a keystone version seems very negligible though.
First run I did was a heroic and didn’t get them. Ran a Mythic 0 with some guildies, looted the boss, nothing, did a bonus roll and got them. Really need to do more runs to get a higher item level and maybe a corruption.
Unless it procs socket/corruption.
Isn’t RNG loot great?!
3, though they didn’t actually drop for me. There was another mage in my Heroic group that had a M+ version and handed me them. Was super stoked.
I finally got heroic 415s after three heroic runs on my 450 mage main. Meanwhile, after several + keys and 0s for Workshop, I haven’t seen them drop. Doesn’t mean I won’t keep trying…
I’ve done M+ Workshop around 6-7 times and haven’t see Hyperthread yet.
The bracers were a truly laugh out loud moment for me.
It took me 8 weeks to get my first set before Mechagon was an M+ dungeon. After patch I got a 445 pair with a socket on my second try. Then last weekend just running keys I got 2 pairs: a 455 with the haste proc corruption and a 460 pair.
This is just a mean post for those of us still trying. The struggle is REAL.

Sorry. Wasn’t meaning to be mean. More trying to show how stupid RNG is when farming a piece of equipment that can make or break your gameplay.
I laughed out loud because I realized how stupid the RNG is in this game.
Took me 8+ runs to get the 415 ilvl set and so far since the patch iv done 11 more runs inc a +15 with no luck iv gotten every other drop tho rings belts ect… it simply should not take 12+runs to get a item so desperately needed and required to run fire i mean the 415 set isnt bad but a 450+set with a socket would be way way better
Took me about a dozen runs to get 415 bracers. It didn’t bother me as a heroic workshop run takes less than 10 minutes.
would this be the wrong time to say that I just opened my weekly chest and got a 475 pair of bracers with the mast % corruption?

Are you sure you don’t want to make the switch to shadow priest? I think you’ve shown sufficient willingness to inflict pain onto others. Teasing aside, congratulations on hitting the lottery!
