the only fun I have these days is leveling up my alts and gearing them out.

you would think that a fresh new 80 in green/blues could be dragged through ICC or ToC non-heroics back-back to get at least something to wear.

I've done enough alts and enough runs of these instances to know that the gear drops are seriously weighted against the team.
if I bring a fresh warlock in with well geared(3 shaman and a pally) and run back-back ICC 5x I get the same drops of plate gear in at least 80% of the passes. if I bring a fresh pally through only cloth drops.

I fully understand statistics and the odds of a boss that can drop 13 items to only drop the same plate item 80% of the time is not random. I can' only assume Bliz does this to prevent people from doing some type of leveling/gearing services.

I know I complained about the random dungeon finder not being random and they actually fixed that. I find the random dungeon finder is really random now.

This non-random drops is taking what little fun I have left in the game out of it. I feel like I just waisted 4 hours doing non-heroic ICC hoping for either cloth or a weapon, I would have been far better off just dragging the under geared toon through random heroic dungeons with the same team.
What I am doing with my tank is trying to do as many totc normal runs as possible for tanking gear and badges. As soon as I am sufficently geared, I will move onto trying to do the icc 5 man instances for more gear and badges. I geared up my rogue pretty quickly doing a few icc 5man normal runs and a lot of totc 5 man normal runs and now he is getting to the point where I can start running him through onyxia and totc 25 for more gear.

Once I get my tank to ICC10 ready, I will be dropping him back into standby and get back to working on my 5 box team they need a few more levels on them I think
