Are there caster jewelry things that are insane like that? I don't even know
BQL neck probably best for dps casters - locks, mages, me, moonkin, ele sham (~7 people total counting Ceso) and probably disc priests and holy paladins (+4 or so), Bone Sentinal thing best for people who care about spirit (holy priests, resto druids) I assume. Caster stuff will get as many tells as the neck did tonight in many cases. Gunship ring is pretty popular, too. We also have the same thing happen for cloth armor sometimes, since we share with spriest, lock, mage, priest healers, sometimes resto druids and moonkin. Even holy paladins (or at least Chair) have taken cloth. Higher armor classes taking lower is really a design flaw on Blizzard's part and we can't help that. Rogues and feral druids are in the same position, having all mail and plate sometimes competing for loot. I'm not saying that people shouldn't do this, because everybody should try to get the best gear, but it sucks for people who simply don't have other options.
It's not going to be fair to revamp the entire loot system at this point, but what I think can be done is council on HM LK weapons, and people who have the 264 trinkets shouldn't get the 277. However, raiders should get these over apps, maybe even after apps go though the 2 week no loot that others want for MS period. I would go as far to suggest that the apps coming in at this point, while they will work on HM LK with us, they haven't been here for the months and months or working on everything else, and perhaps that should be taken into consideration for loot that tons of people want. I also would like the weapon costs changed, it's really screwed up as I noted in my other post. Again, I think it's too late to do this, though. I suppose we could adjust everything retroactively, but obviously the damage has already been done. I'll talk these few things over with Dob and Zigg, or they can comment here of course.
