Just wondered how random these tables are, since my guild has had virtually the same loot for 5 raids running in both zones, 5 pairs of Inquistor Bracers and 4 Pairs of SK boots isnt funny, last 2 raids 90% of the loot was transmuted :smileysad:

Once the RNG gets going, it begins to follow a pattern.  Raid the zones on different days of the week, don't just raid it on say Thursdays.

Are you even serious?  

Random is random.   I Can't belive you are advocating raiding a different day of the week to get different loot.  

Hoping you are joking,

We have had a decent mix of loot each time we've been in these zones.  Inner Sanctum does a great job mixing up class pieces for classes who are not present.

Raid makeup may influence drops, not so sure about day of the week. We've raided different days and still gotten the same loot every time. But the one day we brought an illusionist along after not having one for 3 months, we saw three items that hadn't dropped for us before. This was back in labs awhile ago, haven't really tried to fiddle around with the new zones that way.I think in either case it is just coincidence, since you can raid on different days and still get the same crap. We've done it countless times. Still a few people say it's cause we don't raid Fri/Sat that magically the other 50% of the loot we never see drop is going to drop only on those days. Sadly, I can't say they are wrong.. but oh well :smileysad:
