    I've cleared ZG every lock since its release (1.7) and I've only seen a total of 5 ZG mounts (3 tigers, 2 raptors). Obviously never got one, RNG screws me on rolls.

    RNG hates me too =(

    This is why I love the loot council and dkp systems.

    Truth, back then my guild insisted upon /rolling for stuff like mounts.

    Now only people with something like 80%+ 30/60 day attendance can /roll on mounts, narrows it down to the core players and gives us all a better shot. That way it doesn't end up in some new recruits hands, ugh ><

    When it comes to mounts or items that are guaranteed to drop (like say... Satchel of Spoils, Twilight Mount, Dragon Bag, etc.) the RL does /roll 25 and picks the person which it lands on.

    Fair enough I guess.

    Yeah, I've heard of people that do that. To each their own, I guess. If we made a GameRenders only guild we'd use 1-25!

    More like 1-1. =D

    Naw, if I were to make a guild it would be a hardcore guild, probably loot council based on activity, attendance and performance with their own individual weights like how a teacher grades test weight towards homework weight.

    I would likely have the officers / class leaders / leader get the special item (like twilight mount) ahead of everyone else because they are the ones who earned their spot and respectively, in general, their preference on gear in the first place. They are also the individuals who are tried and true and will be most likely to stay with the guild as it grows.

    So um, I spent the majority of today and yesterday in arena (along with many other weeks), only to realize two things;

    1. Rating system ------ing sucks, win more than you lose and you still end up way under 1500. Then I see teams with more losses than wins and having something like 1700 rating.

    2. Druids and warriors really are terrible in this season.

    As for the guild, I'll take one Heroic Key to the Focusing Iris, Melanchony Sabatons, Frost Hoited Handgrips and Drape of the Deadly Foe kthnx!

    edit: Chuck in the Envoy of Mortality whilst you're at it :P

    Yes, Druid/Warrior isn't too strong a comp anymore.

    All I need is the Torch! And maybe the Heroic Maly key neck!

    The best part is BiS for DW isn't the Sapph/Maly neck =P

    The saddest part is DW is finally being laid to rest in 3.1 and I still only have my damn cleaver.

    WTB 2h drops.

    The worst part about your last statement is last week I ran a pug Naxx, go to Construct wing and called it since people had to go, they came back the next day while i was at work and downed Thaddius, Sapph and KT, and betrayer dropped.
