Heroic Fabled drops

[ShamusOB]

<p>With your new "Hotzone" feature going live and the fact youre going to be giving away free fabled thats in some cases better then Avatar gear are you going to look at these OP items?</p><p>I mean since your no longer going to be able to justify broken items in heroic zones by telling us how "Rare" they are and all.  You should put some of the heroic fabled gear into check with your monsterous nerf bat.</p>

<p>Lol.</p><p>I love how things can go from "an increased drop rate" to "giving away free fabled."</p><p>It's not like you're going to be able to log in and /claim a fabled loot. And even if the hot zone *doubles* the drop rate... for something that was originally a 2 or 3% drop rate it's not still only 4 or 6%.</p>
