    Please consider auto-drop gear in all dungeons

    Hello!
    As someone who has been farming Skalla every single day since patch day (sometimes 10+ runs a day) desperately trying to get the healer top... only to never see it drop, I'm getting really, really frustrated.

    I have even managed to win the minion twice before seeing the Healer chest piece, or even legs. (well at least my friends are going to start getting free salt and pepper seals)

    I know the immediate answers to this will probably be "well I saw it right away/I got it in a few tries!" But sometimes RNG is a cruel mistress. People frequently want the level 70/60 gear just for glamours, or as a way of quickly gearing classes and catching up so they're viable for higher end dungeons and raids. So please consider adding the auto-drop system to the level 70 dungeons as well, thank you!

    The reason you dont get auto-drops from the level 70 content, and the reason you probably wont ever get it until the next expansion, is because this is their sole method of trying to keep the content relevant. Think about this, you admitted in your first post that you've run the dungeon every day, multiple times a day, since its release.. I'm sure you arent the only one. Now imagine you were guaranteed a drop every time with the auto-drop system.. you'd run it repeatedly over the course of two to three days, you'd get that piece you desperately want... and then you'd be done. You and everyone else. The content would be considered dead.

    This is why they keep it like this.. So as much of a pain in the ass as it is to farm the content, its your only option... They MAY add the auto-loot to it when it eventually gets rotated out of the expert roulette, but we'll have to wait and see.

    On another note, if I would enable it in 70 dungeons - I'd most likely would run it multiple times. At the moment I'm more or less simply sitting "geared", mostly waiting for next patch that adds new item levels to gear for. If those dungeons would drop gear like HW and SB leveling dungeons, I would run them for glamour, but at the moment I simply can't be bothered to do it since I know I'd need to do it way too many times.

    They could alternatively put system in place that gives you guaranteed item from it once a day, that way we'd have people populating dungeon(s) and players would know they are making progress. While at same time they can't run it for 2-3 days for guaranteed drops.
