Loot and Coin Distribution in BG's

Just completed TG with ~5fg. The group that did all the damage received all the coins and the rog off the trash mobs. For someone newly 50 doing these raids, that coin and rog loot can be a big improvement. I made no money on the raid, and since the TG stuff is too expensive, I don't have anything to show for the 4 hours of time that raid took (made 10k feathers, nothing for an SB on the merchant at that price, but that's another post).

I personally do not see anything wrong with this. Coin/xp/loot etc should go to the group doing the most damage. Zerg raids should not be a way to easily gear a toon or it defeats the purpose of actually earning gear (beyond mobs that actually require a raid to do).

Not every class/spec is built to do the most damage in PvE. Not all PvE groups in BG's are built solely to max out DPS. I've found in BGs on other servers you often have sub-optimal groups made up of whoevers/stragglers... but they are still there and contributing, perhaps in a critical way.

The behaviour of loot and coin distribution is correct. It always has been that the grp that does deal the most dmg, gets it all. Remembering back when i was doing Zerg Xp on other shards as a player, i made a lot of xp but often not that much coins and loot in general.

It is the decision of the bg-leader if he will random the ROGs or not. He should let everyone know at the start of the raid.

Feathers were always meant to be a nice addition. You are saying that you only have 10k feathers after a run and that you cant buy an item. That is totally what we wanted. Feathers are an additional way to get a nice drop.

Maybe you should see it the other way round. If there were no feathers ig, you would have nothing after a 4h Raid. No coins, no trashdrops and no bossdrops. But now you just need one more run and you will have a drop 100%. That is the main intention why we introduced the feathers. To give every player the chance to get a drop after some time.
