Does OOC not like me?
I was wondering if anyone else seems to be experiencing a loot bag problem. I will run OOC and NOT get a loot bag. Everyone else seems to get one. There will be 4 bags in chat, each going to a group member but me. I've thought maybe I didn't complete some quest but there is nothing in that area left for me. I thought maybe it was because my hunter never made it into the raid there, but I've got the bags AND drake on my paladin and priest (whom I've never took there as well). I've been the last person to loot, the middle to loot and the first but still nothing! I've had this happen about 5 or 6 times now that I'm keeping track and I'm starting to think I'm bugged. I wanted to come here and ask about it before bothering a GM just in case it's user error and is really easy to fix.

I've had Heroic Oculus as my random dungeon countless times, and I can't say I've ever had a loot bag problem. As long as you physically go up to the chest and loot it yourself you should get one. Might be a bug.
Re: Does OOC not like me?
Are you joining OOC group through the random daily heroic dungeon option?
because you only get the bag this way, if you choose OOC through specific dungeon list - you will not get it. this system was inplemented to encourage people not to leave the group when they got Oculus as a random.

Don't panic!

Re: Does OOC not like me?
This was what I was wondering too. Kinda pisses me off - my main doesn't have the blue drake and I'd love to get it, but she's too well geared to get Oculus as a random dungeon.Congafury wrote:Are you joining OOC group through the random daily heroic dungeon option?

Gear level doesn't affect what dungeons you get randomed into.Sarayana wrote:This was what I was wondering too.

Re: Does OOC not like me?
Where do you have that information from? I'm only doubtful because the only time I ever get randomed into anything but HoS, ToC, or the ICC 5mans is when I'm grouped with someone who isn't as well geared. Well that and the fact that it seems to be the conventional wisdom.Saturo wrote:Gear level doesn't affect what dungeons you get randomed into.Sarayana wrote:This was what I was wondering too.

Re: Does OOC not like me?
Gear level can affect the top tiers of Random Heroics (you have to have a certain level of gear before getting into them), but it doesn't work the opposite. You can get into any random heroic once you can get into the ICC 5 mans. I frequently get Utgarde Keep (the lowest/easiest one), and I'm pretty well geared, I also get Oculus a lot. ^^
Re: Does OOC not like me?
Your gear only restricts you from getting into the harder dungeons if it's not good enough. Believe me, I get crap like Nexus and UK on my Kingslayers all the time.
Once your gear level allows you into the ICC 5-mans, it's completely random.
/edit - Veph beat me to it.

Re: Does OOC not like me?
Yeah make sure it is set to random roic when you get Occ and make sure that you physically loot chest to get the bag...just as everyone stated.
Also be sure to do this before Cata cuz the Blue Drake is returning to Maly 10's loot table.

Re: Does OOC not like me?
I guess that IS my problem Congafury. Boy do I feel silly now >.<. I've done so many instances on my hunter lately that I hardly take into account the random vs. looking for dungeon. What a huge disappointment to have run there so many times just for the mount but never get into there as an actual random haha.
