I guess this must be a new DPS-check mechanism added in the event as I do not remember her ever doing this back when I was raiding her during the S.O.D. era.
All right. I don't like this. As most of the encounters spawn a chest that ONLY exists if the mob is killed, this is mob loot. Is this belief the reason the loot table is so completely inaccurate? If not, I'll start posting items when we kill the dirty thing.
I actually signed on to find out more about the essence(s) she drops--whether they are top group essences, or what the deal is.
