With PTR seemingly promising somewhat easy normal mode encounters, I really hope things will change with regards to acquiring the Legendary Staff and Daggers from Firelands and DS. With the shorter patches it’ll be even more difficult to decide who gets what within a 10-man or 25-man setup.
Am in a 10 man guild myself and I already know every caster will want the staff first and it always seems to cause friction or people finding their luck elsewhere. It seems to me that it’s a bit dated that people have to wait their turn for things in a relaunch of a 14 year old game.
Would it be so bad to let all players on a certain step of the Legendary chain be able to loot item X from bosses simultaneously? That way you get rid of all the drama and everyone’s happy - perhaps Heroic encounters can be made a bit more difficult to account for more Legendary staves, but it will take a few weeks to get them either way.
Would there be any downsides to having more staves other than “content becomes easier”? From what I’ve seen, normal mode is not going to be exactly hard anyway.
(not a caster myself so it doesn’t affect me personally)
Would like to hear people’s opinions
