Its not really a bug, its working exactly as intended, due to lack of resources/time to overhaul the loot system entirely. Small tweaks are easier than sweeping changes.
Running around Elwynn Forest on my friends laptop and account, on a human mage, and proceeding to get killed outside Fargodeep mine by these little rat creatures (didnt know what they were at the time) who were very adamant that I would not take their candle lol.
I think what needs to happen is rather than having heroics be a stepping stone into raids, have them be an alternate progression path. Gear up for raids (or heroics) in normals, then have raids and heroics on equal footing gear wise and difficulty wise. Something I particularly enjoyed in Wrath were the 3 ICC 5 mans, the way they all connected together. It felt like a (admitted very easymode) raid for a 5 man team, which is what I would like to see heroics be like, except at raid level challenge.
The Light and How to Swing It would be my choice. Everyone in my guild already comes to me for Paladin advice. Mostly for Protection and Holy advice, but still. I'm kind of like Rossi but with Paladins.
@smartstep You do realize the whole idea of running a business is based on greed right? If anything, their only failure is that they allowed their customers to realize it.
