Help Me, Help You – Again

15 Dec

I still get frequent searches and questions regarding what loot drops from which instances, and Scarlet Monastery is still the most common one that’s asked about. I started to address this issue by posting an article that covered Ragefire Chasm and Wailing Caverns that listed all of the loot and all of the bosses in there, but I’m not entirely sure that the approach I took there was really what people are searching for.

If people do simply want to know what loot drops from a particular instance, then I can tell you right now that the easiest way to find that information is to simply look up the dungeon on Wowhead.com and it will list all of the good stuff right there along with who drops it. It really doesn’t get any easier than that.

What I think the users are really looking for is more along the lines of what drops for a specific class from a certain instance. So instead of taking two instances at a time and covering all of the loot from all of the bosses, I am considering taking a different approach where I pick a specific class and just hit all of the loot in every instance for that specific class. That way if you feel like running something with your Druid, you don’t just go check to see what drops in SM:Cath because you were told that’s “the place to go” for loot in your 30s, instead you look up your class and see which instances drop which items for you and decide for yourself where you want to look.

If you don’t mind, take just a minute to share your thoughts with me here so that I can better address everyone’s needs. If you think I should do both, then feel free to vote for both. If you have further input, then by all means drop me a line in the comments below and let me know what you think.

    I think running it by class (or maybe groups of classes, for those that have similar needs) is the best plan.

      That’s what I’ve been thinking. It’s not a problem doing them by instance, but I’m basically just taking information straight from Wowhead to do it and then putting in my own little snippets of advice or extra info here and there. It takes no effort at all, but I’m not sure that it accomplishes much either.

      Thanks!

      The snow is a wordpress built in feature that you can turn on or off until Jan 4th, so I told it to go ahead and load up for the holidays.
