I lost my beaststalker cap tonight.
I lost it because somehow, despite the fact that I watched Gandling's life tick from 1% to 0% while I auto-fired, I was not allowed to loot the corpse. I didn't die and release. I didn't get ported. He was wearing a serpent sting DOT of mine when he died. My pet was attacking him. I was shooting at him, had him targeted and was most certainly in combat. And somehow, I didn't "earn" looting rights to the corpse, because I'd somehow gotten "out of range" and "didn't put myself back on his hate-list before he died."
The raid group I was with was dumbfounded. None of us could figure out what had happened or what was going on. They made me the master looter, they made it FFA, nothing, nada, zero.
World of Warcraft can be an amazing game, but the whole point of endgame stuff (for me, at least, and I know for a lot of my friends) is loot. And when you can't loot the item 10 people spent two hours of time helping you get, well, it's a really fucking lame experience. The Blizzard forums have posts about this bug all over the place and the best anyone has gotten is, "We're looking into it."
Ugh....
