Sure it was just an issue... more like making the mount deliberately not drop to fuck with people.
Despicable company.
The number of people in this thread who seem to understand ~exactly~ how drop rates work internally is suspiciously high. I guess all those people Blizzard fired last year now post professionally on MMO-C!
Sometimes I feel that Blizz is holding with some good changes only to use this card to neutralize random fuck ups.
Not only was it possible to just not ever drop a mount, but sometimes it would drop one but since it's one of those fights that hard swaps to a new phase/zone once you win (aka like N'zoth) people can crash/bug and not get ported to that new zone thus bugging their chest and punting all the loot in their chest into their mailbox. This means if you got the mount it was soulbound and not tradable at that point.
'the loot system is not used to being changed for the improvement of player experience'
They should put that spawn protection on all of them, lasting a minute, tbh.
Better yet, give all "Rares" a short respawn timer... they already got their daily/weekly lock out... no need to add waiting for them to spawn on top of that.

They should make spawn protection standard on every mob that drops collectibles.
Screw their lazy ass customer service
whats spawn protection ?
Of course people were fired, but it doesn’t mean they’re down to like 5 people running customer service. They’re not going to randomly hand out a mount for every single time that boss is defeated - that’s just wasting resources unnecessarily, despite what numbers of people they have employed.
Where did i say that there are 5 people left?
According to you the thing not working properly that was annouced in BLUE POST is 'waste of resources'? Are you kidding right now?
They did not test this probably even single time.
Why are they here then if not for helping players?
why did they change it to make her drop 2 mounts anyway? Whats the reasoning? They;ve never done it with any other boss...
