[MoP] Sha Touched WeaponI wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this regarding the sha touched weapons. I only do LFR currently as my level of raiding with my rogue and within the first couple of weeks of the content being available I received the sha touched fist weapons. I don't much enjoy playing combat style so once I had daggers I switched to assassination. I have done LFR every week just the last portion to attempt to get the sha touched daggers and never had them drop for me even with bonus rolls being used every time. Is it just very bad RNG or once you have one weapon you can't receive a different type of sha weapon? |

You can still receive different types of weapons. I have both the staff and 1H sword for my warlock. |

A sacrifice to the RNG gods is required for you to get your daggers.
RNG is RNG. |

I have one sha-touched fist weapon and one sha-touched dagger on my rogue, so it will definitely give you both. Of course, I'd rather have two fist weapons since I play combat and they look better together, but I can't get the second to drop. I also think the LFR bosses ran out of sigils of power and wisdom, as I've seen a total of one in the last two weeks doing all five sections each time. |

I got one (wisdom) on my run through the Terrace last night. And of course I had item drops on the first two encounters, that I didn't need, and nothing on the last two, which are the ones I DO need. I NEED MA HEAD AND SHOULDERS!!! I'm seriously starting to flake out over it.
And it just feels wrong to disenchant those purple drops.... |

If you really want that dagger save ALL your coins for it.. after it's done, re-Q again and you can spend the rest of the coins on each kill until you run out..
Then save 10K gold for the extra gem, remember you can't have 2 gems equipped at the same time.. |

If already you socketed your gem you can buy another with Wration for 10K |

When you complete the quest and get your 500 gem, you can buy a second one for 10k with Wrathion. |

The catch? The gems are unique-equipped. So dual-wielders only get 1 for their weapons. It is handy for hybrids who manage to pick up a sha-touched weapon for each spec. |

To bad they scrapped the 550 gems for now. |

Anyone else think 10k is kind of steep? |

it's about a week's worth of grinding all dailies. Hard to say what is "fair" for a legendary gem. |

said by Pollux7777:Anyone else think 10k is kind of steep? It's the same amount you needed for the Cataclysm legendaries, iirc. About that much for part of the Dragonwrath, and that much just to start the daggers. Paying that much for a replacement isn't that bad. Besides, the only people who actually *need* one are those who use both MS and OS in raids. Plus, yeah, it doesn't take long. Get an alt to 90 and start doing dailies/quest. If you're like me, you bought all the mounts first time around, so all that "extra" gold can buy you a gem. |

I knew if I had already run LFR for that week I couldn't receive loot from those boss kills. I had no idea you can still use the coins again to get drops; I guess I figured it worked the same. This is good news! |

Not it is not good news, it is a soul sucking venture that will get you depressed, when you run the raid 3 times a week, and receive 4 bags of golden nutsacks.
Or worse, you get 5 of the same item fromt hat boss. |

Well I want that sha touched weapon while I can still upgrade it.
So I guess I'll see if I can get a good healer or tank to do LFR#5 5 times. |

That was never a mentioned issue in my post. I still have the gem from the quest line I haven't used yet because I am waiting for the dagger drop. Nice try though. |

I received it without an extra roll on my second run on my ret alt. Talk about taking it in the nutsacks. Then again, that's about par for me. Took me about 50 Deathwing kills to get a second Gurth. Lost twice when I rolled 100. |

Energy was about his 25th "roll" from both ToES and MSV until he got the 476 weapon from Will of the Emperor, he couldn't talk for some time.
I bet he was crying |

Interesting. I didn't know you could use the charm tokens for loot rolls for additional raid runs after completing the first run of the week. Once again, DSLR has taught me something this day. Too bad I have neither the charms or the time to take advantage of this new found knowledge though... lol. |

Ok, this made me laugh. And I feel your pain, I think I've killed Lei Shi on various LFR and Normals over 20 times now.... with a bonus roll every time and still no m*ther f@cking piece of sh^t don't think it actually exists so suck my a$$ Blizzard dagger. |

When using the coins for bonus rolls do they only apply to the loot table from that specific boss or the entire instance? Since I haven't gotten the dagger to drop off of Lei Shi even with bonus rolls; I have more chances for it to drop using the bonus rolls on the other bosses in that same instance as well or just from repetitive runs and using them only on Lei Shi? Thanks in advance for clarification. |

It only applies to that particual boss' loot table. Sadly for ToES you can get the same belt for like 3 bosses which actually makes your chances even less. |
