Got my daggers a month and a half ago. Yay, only advantage ever of being in a 25m guild.

RNG is the same, you just get more shots at it. You also have to gear more people with the same items. You also get less tier drops per player. Hardly an advantage unless you have some super craptastic loot system that you abuse the crap out of to jack everything first.
You're not the only one screwed with agi trinkets btw... pretty sure we're about to have heroic CoC go to offspec too...
Ahh, but as you have higher samples, you get closer to the actual chance. Basically think of coin flips. The more times you flip a coin, the closer the ratio goes to 50/50 heads/tails. Its the same in 10 vs 25 man, you get twice as many coin flips and as such you're subject to less RNG.
No, you have the same RNG you just expect your sample mean to converge to the true mean faster in 25m because it grows faster. Your example is flawed, the relevant example is "I have 4 coins, first i flip three, then I flip the last one." Whats the RNG chance for heads on the last flip? Still 50/50 because its independent from the first 3.
IF it was impossible to get the same item multiple times, then you would actually have less RNG on 25m. It is possible though, so its the same RNG.
Edit: I think I know what you are trying to say, that the probability a particular item drops from a particular boss is higher because you get more drops on 25m. That has absolutely nothing to do with RNG though.

Wohoooo got 1 cluster last night XD so i'm at 197/333!!!
ROFL.
Non ti fidar di me se il cuor ti manca.
Just make it so any mat or stuff needed can only be dropped of the end boss in heroic. that will solve it being given to baddies in normal. And you get to show that you are elite enough to down all content without a legendary since you have to put everything on farm in heroics before you can get it. legendary will be the ultimate epeen show off.
That will make them rare as well so win win dont you think?
Like Diablo, I finally strayed away from the Soon™ genre. Getting them next week.
Unless I'm screwed over royally by RNG, that is

Tauren are the only race that produce the proper sound effects when you use the '/moo' emote.
/moo'ing since the beginning of march 2004 in the closed World of Warcraft beta.
Taurens>Gnomes>Trolls>Orcs>Worgens.
Druid>Shaman>Rogue>Mage.
Like I said, you aren't the only ones without trinkets. 25m can easily get screwed as well. I do absolutely agree about shared boss loot... I swear that stuff all drops so much less than boss specific drops. I mean yeah, logically it drops from 6 bosses so its gonna have a lower drop rate and it should probably even out, but I guess our raid is unlucky.
0.
I don't raid though. Can't find a pug that's willing to take me because I don't have 390+++ ilvl and 8/8 (though I do on my shaman, but that's not good enough). Stupid elitist server. PvP pieces aren't so good either nor is missing enchants. Oh, and I don't want to play Combat. Meh, don't thnk I'll ever get me hands on a legendary.

I think if there's anything I've learned about this game, it's that dedication is [almost] the only thing that matters.
PS, just got my legendaries last night ^_^, now it's time to kill DW.
Got 13 3's and 3 4's in my last two weeks.. This week I got three nines in a row though so karma payed off. 332/333 but I skipped the first four weeks of raiding. I have a 7ish average.
49 boss kills 332 gems. *shades*
How long will the 60 clusters take? I should be doing 25m Heroics starting next week.. I was told 4 weeks if I'm lucky.. 3 if we do 8/8 Heroic Clear every week...

Heroic doesn't matter. Avg is afaik 1.8 clusters per 25m boss (possible theres been an update to that, but it seems like its about right). Assuming you get the avg, it takes ~33 bosses which is 1 boss over 4 weeks. So yeah, the 4 weeks if you're a bit lucky is a fair estimate.
59/60 with my last gem coming from Morchok. :| Then it's clear 6/8 Heroic and spend time wiping to Heroic Spine for a night or two unless we muster up some coordination and kill it on our first night of attempts. So, I'll get my legendaries this week. But it'll be at the cost of not getting them until the end of the week. Eh, I'm just stoked I'll finally have them.
