Soo I was playing BS earlier and client help but notice that bosses are the only ones that drops items (and they don't always drop). Y'all think this was intentional or is it just one of the many bugs in the new version?

Its intentional. I think they are cutting back on inflation since of the epic gold farm days from crush the keeper.
P.S. - Funny thinking that This Ends Now! is gonna be the new gold farm map once we get top gears for 55.

I noticed too. Kinda disappointing not getting any items.. Especially if you give up on the boss after 5 wipes and have nothing to show for it.

Yeah I wish at least everyone got drops from a boss :/ prices are gonna be sky-high if this keeps up. Only saw like a total of 5 pinks on the store.

I thought bosses were supposed to drop loot for every person in the group as long as they are close enough? Or are you talking about actually not getting good loot such as pinks from a boss? If it isn't getting good loot, like Pharcyde said, it is to cut back inflation. I'd love to see tiny drop rates for the top gear. I think it is getting better though. Ao3's top gear was slightly rarer and much more valuable than past gear. Hopefully the drop rates for BS are cut back even farther. To tell you the truth, I hate to see everyone having the top gear in the game.

Omg didn't notice that. You know what that's gonna cause...people claiming that somebody "stole" their drop. Give everyone a roll please.

I got two orange drops... Both jewel helms, I'm guessing they're for crafting...? Only two of us in the party got those (from goldfever) and I was wondering if it was because we had a quest that was related.

dont flatter yourself. I meant literaly some people wont get an item out of killing a boss.

Yah even from a mini boss, only two ppl got a drop -- both orange. Lori was nice enough to give me hers, but I can se this causing a lot of mean and nasty behavior if everyone doesnt get SOMETHING from boss drops.

Flatter myself? I was agreeing with you, sheesh. I think everyone should get a roll (drop) just like every other boss.
