    Loot from tbc raids nerfed

    Looks like instead of fixing the botting problem in BT, they just removed most of the drops from tbc raids.

    Cleared them on two different characters now, usually I leave with my bags full of cloth and greens, now it appears to be mainly patterns a loot tokens.

    Yeah, I noticed that too. I was a bit confused as to why I got no greens, cloth, etc when doing weekly glaive runs.

    I noticed this too and it is to fix the bot problem, best to stock up on netherweave and potentially frostweave...
    Edit: Frostweave still drops fine in Wrath dungeons but netherweave is not dropping at all for me from BC dungeons or raids.

    Blizzard takes way too long to realize whether payments are fine or not, i once created several accounts and used PP to buy gametime, of course I did not know that it used the credit card that was linked to my paypal account, and all accounts had fake names and adresses - my bank called me on a friday but i missed the call, on monday they called again, and I told them that everything was fine, two weeks later all my accounts were frozen and blizz asked me to provide id ... Also it seems that there are no consequences when using a stolen CC, they just close the account and dont bother .
    But do you really think they farmed BT this way, there was a thread on the HB forums and several people stated that the bots had these "looted x gold " achievments and they were brand new, which means they farmed gold from mobs directly ...

    I've been following this thread all week – we wanted to provide information sooner, but we try to be discreet when it comes to measures taken to address exploits and game abuse. We applied a band-aid fix last week to scale down the drop-rate of Uncommon, Common, and Poor (green, white, and grey) items inside Burning Crusade raids and dungeons, proportional to group size – this is the same way gold works, and if you had a full 5-player party running a dungeon nothing would have changed, but if you were soloing a raid like Black Temple you would have seen a large reduction in vendorable items. Clearly that change, particularly undocumented, impacted innocent players. With today's maintenance, we've reverted that temporary fix and replaced it with an approach that should have zero impact on legitimate players.

    That said, while we're very supportive of the activity of running legacy content, whether for transmog gear, crafting materials, trying to get that elusive second Warglaive, or just seeing places you never got to experience the first time around, we do need to keep an eye on the gold rewarded in the process. The core issue is that dungeons and raids yield much larger quantities of loot and materials, because they're designed to be split among 5, 10, or 25 players. But when you can go back and solo them later on, they can end up being disproportionately lucrative. We want them to still be rewarding and profitable (and clearly getting 3 grey drops from a full BT clear this past week was well short of that), but we may adjust the vendor-loot yield of legacy raids going forward into Warlords to keep the overall economy balanced. In any event, we'll provide much clearer documentation and advance notice if and when we do that.

    Apologies for the radio silence regarding this change over the course of the past week.
    So if I'm reading this right, they reverted the change?
