Is the dropped loot truly random? I assume it is, but I do think there is some sort of bug with the algorithm (as I still get assist XP and gold so it's not an account bug). Perhaps with the random number generator/sorting code.
It seems that I can go complete runs on through the boss (including normal and hard) and get nothing but a few old boots and maybe one heavy cloth/hardened metal/low level better crafting item -- sometime not a single drop. And then you hear the same few people "lump of lead/scale/sulphur/bear fur" over and over. You can see it in the AH as well, where some of the same people consistently have high level drops for sale. It seems to break down that 4-5 people get a lot, 4-5 people get some, 4-5 people get virtually none -- and the same people round to round.
I know a few other people that seem "drop challenged" as well. If there is over around 4-6 active people, I virtually get nothing. Now, I'm definitely not expecting every drop, but when playing multiple hard rounds back to back and being alive the whole time, would think I should get more than a few boots/sticks/bent swords.
Yep i get this too. Id like the answer aswell please
