They aren’t dropping anything. What’s going on?

I’m at work on lunch so I can’t confirm, but I’m hearing they are nature immune, so my druid wouldn’t be able to do it anyway.

I’ve gotten some herbs. Is the crusher radius higher? I’m in the same spot as all these videos and I can’t avoid grabbing either left or right on the ledge, anyone pull that off? A screenshot would be helpful if so

Seems that way. They keep aggro’ing me as well and then pull every single mob along the way with them.

Reference vanilla server: 1
Private vanilla server: 0

actually lashers were farmed in vanilla, read the comments from all the way back in 05 here

some comments are about xp, some about them being able to drop epics.

doesnt say what the nerf was, and above it was metnioned xp nerfs, not loot. im currently digging more, but this may be why ppl are remembering differently though at least, both sides may be right lol.

I remember distinctly this being nerfed in 1.10.

Check the loot tables on classic db. Outside of herbs it looks like other drops are <1% and no epics.

I think a lot of the videos you are watching are either private server stuff or some serious back in the day content.

I’m almost positive that Blizzard adjusted DM to block certain classes from farming it.

Yeah my assumption is that as well, some videos are obviously private server (crushers in entirely different spawn points), others look accurate but I’m still pulling following the same paths, just hiked it back to ZF /shrug

Good. Mages already have too many good things going for them.

I’d agree. Wasn’t looking forward to farming DM anyway.

“Dire Maul has had several spawn locations changed and a slight increase in population.” That was a 1.6 change I believe.

People really have bad memories of vanilla WoW and all the patching that took place.
