How many epics drop off of 25 man raids?

[psfan1507]

Ok before you flame this, I searched both the forums and google and could not find anything other than pre-cata speculation on this topic. So just wondering how many epics drop on 25 man. And if it is less than 4 or 5 then what is the point of doing 25 mans as opposed to 10 since its is about 1 epic per group.

Asking because I am in a 10m raiding guild and we were thinking about whether it would be worth it or not to merge our 2 10man groups and start doing 25 mans.

Thx in advance for the help.

Pretty sure its 5 drops.

1 drop per 5 players..Same as 10m.

5.

Raids drop 1 item for every 5 people.

K guys thx for the help. Kinda sux tho since blizz said that there would be a larger epic/group member ratio in 25 man, but oh well guess thats what the increased VP are for :/

Well.. others said it..it's 5 items on normal and 6 on heroic.
With the exception of Baradin hold that drops 6 on 25man.

Normal modes:
10-man: 2 normal items. Tier bosses drop 2 normal items, 1 token.
25-man: 5 normal items. Tier bosses drop 5 normal items, (2?) tokens

Heroic modes:
10-man: 2 heroic items. Tier bosses drop 2 heroic items, 1 token.
25-man: 6 normal items. Tier bosses drop 6 heroic items, 3 tokens.

Sadly...
VP being increased doesn't help when there is a cap... which if you have good progress in 10 or 25 you are likely to hit.

So basically unlike blizzard said they didn't give any real advantage to 25 mans to make up for extra admin work...

10-man: 2 normal items. Tier bosses drop 2 normal items, 1 token.
25-man: 5 normal items. Tier bosses drop 5 normal items, (2?) tokens

Heroic modes:
10-man: 2 heroic items. Tier bosses drop 2 heroic items, 1 token.
25-man: 6 normal items. Tier bosses drop 6 heroic items, 3 tokens.

It's 3 tokens for normal 25 man. Basically answering the OP, yes, it's more beneficial to do 25 mans.
