Loot Specialization is Broken. You can set it to any settings for raids, BGs, dungeons and it is just random loot and not for that spec most of the time. Why even have the menu? My Holy Priest got Versa and Haste which is the LAST stats ever wanted currently…this system is broken.
If you are going to leave this in please fix it. I just wasted like an hour in a Warfront and got crap loot that now gets DE’ed cause I have no use for the gear/stats.
This has nothing to do with the Loot Spec options. Loot spec prevents DPS from getting tank or heal or heal trinkets and vice versa, and it prevents specs that don’t use Int, or Str, or Agi from receiving weapons with that primary stat.
If your spec can benefit from the primary stat, the secondary stats, and any procs that are on the item, then that item is part of the loot table for that spec, even if it isn’t optimal.
I’m going to reiterate what everyone has been saying, but you realize that stats are dictated by the player base and not Blizzard right? Loot specialization is more about trinkets and, in some cases, weapons. If a rogue is set to Assassination or Sub, they’ll get daggers instead of a 1H mace/sword/axe that they’d get from an Outlaw specialization.
Complaining about loot specialization when what you’re saying doesn’t even apply towards what you’re complaining about is just going to cause you to have more headaches than answers.
