Anyone been successful in soloing BoT trash for epics?

Ya, sure, and most of us get epics by just entering the instance...

Check drop tables before making smart ass remarks please.

Says the one using stupid WoWhead drop percentages... lol

But wait, the AH is flooded with hundreds of BoE epics at less than 1k each, so you must be right. Or not?

Server dependence and not all of the items are good, like the stupid cloth pants or w/e it is. And if they are under 1k then your server has NO IDEA wtf it is doing with it's economy.

zone drop epics have always had about a 10% drop rate from mobs, dating back to before sunwell trash runs were big. Can you hit a dry spree of items? Sure you can.

Oh, I am quite sure you will make another thread to answer your own question the in form of a gold making guide.....

I think there's some miscommunication happening. To clarify, at least how I understand it, I believe Klesh is being sarcastic with this remark:

Klesh believes the drop rates are lower than 15%, and he's claiming that if it was near that percentage BoE's would be much lower in price (like around 1k). But because they're so expensive, Klesh is assuming the drop rate must be much lower.


fwiw, I think even with a 15% droprate prices on the AH will be multiple thousand k gold for awhile, Klesh. Why? Most BoEs wouldn't make it from the raid to the AH, since guilds give the BoEs to people in their raid that want them in order to gear up the group faster. It's like you are assuming that every BoE that drops gets sold on the AH, which is really, really far from the truth at the beginning of an expac.
