Cause those caches aren’t specc specific. U can Read that in the dozens of forum posts about it where it gets explained over and over.

wq and emissary rewards are not spec specific at the moment.

I like to quote the whole ‘RNG is exciting’ too when I can.

Changes are coming.

For those who missed Watcher’s most recent update:

In Season 2, emissary caches and similar rewards like Assault wrapper quests will award loot based on your spec (or loot spec, if chosen) instead of your class.

Standard world quests will continue to provide rewards based on class rather than spec, for two reasons:

You can see the exact reward up-front, and choose whether or not to do the content if the reward doesn’t interest you. This also can offer a way to shore up weak off-spec slots without worrying that you might miss out on a major upgrade.
If world quest rewards were spec-based, it might seem like the right behavior to cycle through your specs when evaluating potential rewards for every world quest, especially early in a tier, which seems like pretty annoying gameplay.
But neither of those reasons applies to something like emissaries or Assaults, where you don’t see what the reward will be until the end. And as you say, it can be frustrating if it’s for a spec you have no intention of playing, or it can simply feel like a bug. So we’re changing it.

Yeah, it is. What they forgot to mention is the crushing disappointment when what you’ve worked for ends being BiS for Crenzo Sparkshatter.

There is a really good point about all the RNG we go through with a drop now. I’m sure you’ve seen it.

I don’t agree that’s an issue. We do it with literally ever other drop, and I’ve never heard anyone complain about having to set loot spec.

11

I was confused for a moment thought you were quoting something I hadn’t said. You’re quoting Ion xD

I don’t agree with it either. All loot should respect our spec choice at all times.

only real silly part of this, is that those classes who suffer from it are mostly melee, hunters, shamans, rest pretty much, always gets something they can use, is it worth using is then a different question.
