Subject: 30/03 - ZOMG gief Loot plx
   GMs have informed us they are receiving many tickets from Master Looters because they seem not to be able to loot.

This is most likely due to AddOns. Some AddOns may interfere with looting since many changes were made to the User Interface with patch 1.10.

How to prevent this (2 different options):

The safe way: Remove all your AddOns before doing a raid or anything else where Master Looting is concerned
The other way: Remove any AddOns you don't need and update all other AddOns to versions which are verified to be patch 1.10 compatible.

Folks, if you want your phat lewt, before starting a raid, check with your Master Looter that their AddOns are up to date and confirmed to be working properly.

   Any issues with Master Looting that players want to raise should be submitted to GMs in ONE ticket by ONLY the Master Looter.

Q u o t e:
I love how Blizzard always blame addons.

The problem is most likely that people werent in the aggro list, and therefore couldn't get loot (offtanks etc.) - This is a change in 1.10 (ref. US test forums)

There are *VERY* few addons that makes changes to master loot, and these are not commonly used.


Which doesn't take away from the fact that having access to internal information gives one a much better understanding of how many issues are actually caused due to AddOns.

Of course it's fully possible that there are other causes, but don't dismiss any possibility, we don't.

Q u o t e:
My best guess is that it has nothing to do with addons whatsoever, and that blizzard doesn't know what the problem is so they just blame those naughty naughty evil addons. I bet MC was empty for us too because people are using decursive ... yea right.


Necrosis, actually..

That's why you get mediocre ones..

Q u o t e:
Or another great option... switch to group loot :D, but the forum goblin is right, disabling add-on's or updating to the latest version does work :)


I see that some people recognise the light when they see it. Thank you ;)

Q u o t e:
First time in history we've gotten anything concrete about problematic addons, thank you.


It was actually a mild jab at the poster, I don't know if anything's wrong with Necrosis or not.
