Ngl it feels pretty wierd doing LBRS about 30 times with the guild and never once getting the last gem off the last boss because its drop rate is so abysmal.

I think it would be a significant quality of life update to make the UBRS key quest a little easyer so people can get everyone attunted to bwl.

-1 for this.

If you can't drop the gems, just buy key service.

I've done lbrs like 45 times to get all 3. You still have 15 to go... or next 30, it's all about RNG.

"Antibiotics didn't exist back when I was sick, so no one should ever be treated of any illness, tough it out."

+1 for this suggestion.

The issue is more the lack of incentives to run LBRS than the unlucky drop rates. Most people only go there once or twice for quests and that's it, and then there's hunters needing one key drop from the last boss...

Uhhh, yeah, a well designed feature in a game wouldn't have you pay someone else to access the dungeon because the quest to do it has shit odds at dropping the required item. 70iq take.

No, even if you do run it, again I've personally ran it over 30 times and didn't get the necessary item, which for most all other content would have been 100% chance btw. When you attune to MC or bwl or kara it isn't a chance to give you the necessary item, you just do the task and get the item for it. Same for BRD and scholomance and stratholme. It makes no sense to gatekeep it so hard for a dungeon nobody wants to do because nobody needs to beyond getting ubrs key. It's laughable.

At the end of the day, it's just a massive quality of life change if you


1] made the gems lootable by MORE THAN ONE PERSON AT A TIME (truly wtf was blizzard smoking, was UBRS meant to be the final raid?)

2] make it higher chance or 100 drop chance per gem so people can get all 3 and turn the quest in.

I would say, add new recipes/spellbooks from bosses throughout LBRS to keep it useful for people. Then give gems 100% drop rate (still only 1 per group though).
