Has anyone had this happen?

Unread post by Danielfboone »

Last night, I was running SoO LFR with my boosted Warlock. We defeated the Iron Juggernaut and it came up that I had won a belt. The option was there for a bonus roll so even though I had never used the bonus when I already had won something, I said "What the heck" and did it. I was pleasantly surprised with a new pair of leggings. I didn't know you could win 2 pieces of gear from one boss.

I only have one piece (bracers) of the boosted starter gear left now and my iLevel is 501.

I have had it happen to me before, too.

Pretty sure it is an intended mechanic and you are also very lucky! ^.^

It is so sucky when you use a bonus roll and win the exact same item, though. haha.

Closest I've come to that I think is 2 pieces off Ordos (so 1 off a bonus roll) - I don't remember ever managing to get 2 off an actual raid boss.

Crazier to me was one week, all 3 of my alts that did Celestials got tier pieces. :)

I had it happen on my priest a few times. I went as heal with her, got heal item with the normal roll and most times a shadow item with second roll although I have loot specialization set on "Discipline". My husband had the same with his druid. Got heal items on first roll and tank items with bonus roll although loot is on heal. Quite annoying if you have an offspec you only use like once a year.

I'm one of those players who rarely ever gets loot even with bonus roll. All the gold I got made me hate this system, imo.
