ZG Bijous in Era

WoW Classic WoW Classic General Discussion
1

The bijou drop rate was changed in SoM and a cache was added to Hakkar.

The drop rate on bijous was changed on Era realms but the Hakkar cache was not.

Simply posting to bring attention to this as a full zg clear now only drops like 1 to 4 bijous a raid, simply unacceptable.

@blizz, please give us the Hakkar cache on era.

Greatly increased the availability of Bijous and Coins from all sources in Zul’Gurub.
Hakkar will also now drop a cache of Bijous when killed.”

Something definitely a little fishy in ZG, please take a look Blizz. Thank you

Please test changes before pushing them live.

In SOM you get about 20-30 bijous a run not including Hakaar. Hakaar only drops 1 or 3 extra, doesnt really make a difference.

No wonder I haven’t gotten a Bijou my last few ZG runs. Please fix this!

(And how about you double check KT’s alliance THC drop rate while you’re at it? <3)

don’t know what SoM hakkar cache you’re talking about
in SoM bijous can drop in bundles of like 2-3 though

Please fix.

seriously this thread is nonsense
bijou drop rate was not reduced in SoM, and there’s no cache after defeating hakkar
what are you guys talking about :expressionless:

12

Please fix drop rate Blizzard!
The changes made to SOM should not effect ERA.
I have done over 50 runs on my mage and the average drop rate of bijou(s) are less than 1.

Past 3 clears I’ve done we’ve had less than 5 every run.

Troll else where please. No one is crying, simply bring attention to something that’s not right. I have no doubts that this won’t ever be addressed, that doesn’t mean we should be complacent.

  • Hakkar will also now drop a cache of Bijous when killed.

Please educate yourself.

Blizzard, please check the drop rate for bijous on Classic Era. They are an important part of the game, and SoM changes seem to have resulted in a much lower drop rate on Era. We need more bijous to drop on Classic Era!

  • Greatly increased the availability of Bijous and Coins from all sources in Zul’Gurub.

So is this the theory?:

  • March 2: SoM phase 4 is release with a stealth nerf to coin/bijou drop rate. This nerf also applied to Classic Era
  • April 8: The SoM drop rate was increased to at least the nominal rate, this modification was not applied to Classic Era.

Arielba, the classic era community has a legitimate concern here. stop trolling irrelevant threads.
