We've killed the mob about 10 times and it's dropped dirge shoulders 8 or the 10 times. We'd like to see something else. This mob is broken.

Everytime you killed him, did you not have at least 1 person in the raid who could use the pattern ?

They are on smart loot now, so even though you get the same severel times, you should still only get something that can be used..

Sooner or later all of the people who can use those shoulders have them, and you will not see it again úntil everyone else have their pattern

Lots of speculations on this one SMILEY

I second that this shuld be Heirloom, there is no reason why it shuld not..

If you have problems with people trying to use more than 1 mirror, just make it so that you atune it when you save your first spec into it, and all the way up to that, its stillheirloom, and tradeable..

This way, we can get it of brokers (makes the tradeskillers happy) and we can craft it for characters on our own account aswell SMILEY

Make sure all of your raiders who use that pattern have their piece made, even if they don't want it. That will ensure it won't drop again until everyone in raid has their shoulders then you get a random one each time.

If everyone already has their pieces then it's just bad luck that you keep getting the same one.

Yep.  We have a number of Priests who use the REH instead of their class hat, but we made them purchase their class hat just to help Smart Loot be "smarter".

weve gone through a few changes in members lately in the dirge category and every time we kill the mob, the pattern is going to an app instead of the members that have worked so hard to get to this mob. Invariably we kit out a player with lots of good gear including shoulders only to see them recruited away to other guilds while the rest of us pray for something other than this one pattern to drop. This is not a new issue, it's done it since patterns came out. One class always seems to have a better drop rate. I'm not sure if its because computers dont really do well with random numbers or if the formula used is broken but it does happen.

and yes, I'd be happy if just once it would drop guard shoulders

mynzak down again on second pull even. drop : dirge shoulders. We invited a new inquis who didn't have em and he got em. In our entire raid, we have about 5 sets of this one pattern. No one else  has shoulders in yet it's the only pattern that drops.
