For those that played Vanilla wow, you remember the days when a world purple would drop and it was like striking it rich. I loved that feeling...like you wanted to scream it to everyone in the zone.
Fast foward to now...not so much. The closest thing now is the
Battered Hilt
which I love the fact that it's such a low drop rate that it keeps people fighting for it. It's like a challenge to find the thing all over again and once found rejoice!
So my thinking is, Bliz...instead of making all those LFD runs so boring, throw in some increadible rare items that people can gloat about when they find it. It'd give the LFD a whole new meaning!

I've seen people get into near-screaming slap fights over Je'Tze's Bell still when it drops in an instance. I think there are plenty of super-rare drops as it is.

Bear with me for a moment here...
You recognize that the Battered Hilt is:
A) Super Rare
B) Drops from a dungeon
C) Highly valued
D) People gloat about it
E) All of the above
So... precisely what do you want Blizzard to do, that they have not already done?
Your missing my point...I don't mean limit the rare item to a certain dungeon. I'm talking about multiple rare items that can be found across the LFD system, like world purple drops.
And, yes, I agree, the items would have to be BOE items to prevent resale.

For those to durp to understand what he means:
Make it so that when your group uses the LFD tool (maybe when at least 3 members random found the dungeon) there is a possibility for high level boe epics to drop, on par with ICC10 gear, but itemized in a wonky way to not ever be BETTER than said gear.
I like.

So you want the value of "rare" drops diminished by dropping more of them?
pass
No..not quite. All the purple ones I've seen drop are never really used--they're subpar compared to the items that most people equip.
I'm thinking more along the lines of a rare drop with a quest line that will actually help gear you--it takes your average GS and gives you a item unlike what most people have. Sure you get purples from badges...but it's easy, boring, and everyone has the same gear.
Give me something unique and rare.
