Do potions not drop from mobs any more?Follow

It's been two weeks now since cata hit and I've killed thousands and thousands of mobs and I have yet to see a single health or mana potion drop. Are they alchemy only now?

I believe so, I never saw a single one and all of my guildies said the same.

Maybe mobs have finally figured out that they should be using them instead of letting them drop to the floor when they die :)

I recall getting one on my low-level rogue, but that could very well have been from a pickpocket... Smiley: frown

I've still gotten mana and health pots from mobs... Perhaps the cata stuff/mobs doesn't drop them anymore, as I haven't gotten any leveling any of my 80+ toons. As for those below, they're still dropping from what I can see.

I pickpocketed a single Rogue's Draught from one of the mobs near the end of the Harrison Jones quest line in Uldum. It's the only potion I've seen so far. I also pickpocketed a Gilnean Fortified Brandy from one of them.

I pickpocketed a ton of that stuff on my rogue on the way to 85.

It seems like the only pots you can get from mobs, now.

I got one the second time I did the new fishing dailies from the "bag of absolute crap" you get as a reward. I Haven't seen another since.

One toon to 85 and a couple others to 81-83'ish. Not one single potion of any kind has dropped. I have leveled a Worgen from 1 up to the 30s and gotten various pots on the way up. So still dropping just doesn't seem to be from Cata mobs.

Yeah I haven't gotten any health or mana pots from any of the 80+ mobs either. I've made some for myself, but I have to admit the 85 pots are pretty lackluster. The health pots only cure 10k health, which is less than 10% of my total health as a Moonkin. Wrath pots healed at least 20% of my mage's health, even in T9. Less than 10% in half heroic half 85 regular dungeon gear is pretty disheartening.

I was wondering about this too. All I've gotten on my rogue is the rogue's drought or whatever it's called by pickpocketing. And 1 single mana pot. Thought it was kinda weird that there were no health pots dropping and I'm like four bubbles from 85.

Yup - not a pot to be found outside the AH that's 80+, gems are almost as non-existent from mining while cloth feels less common then greens.

I went on a 3 hour pickpocketing run trying to get the BoE epics from lockboxes. I have 5 stacks of Rogues Draught which are great for a quick 10k, they can crit also, I had one crit for 20k and my healer loved me. I opened over 400 boxes and only got 2 rare quality gems a Inferno and Ocean, and 4 stacks of Goblin Gentlemen Mags.

I just wanted the thrown epic becuase its a rogues weakest spot, only thrown ive seen is one of the last bosses of Halls Of Origination and that takes FOREVER, and it seems to be a low drop chance.

I had/have a mana pot that I'm pretty sure came off a mob. However I can't recall the name of it (will check later when I can log in).

A handful of health pots and one or two mana pots have shown up in my bags, but they could have been from quests I wasn't paying attention to. I rarely need them nowadays though (at least not health ones). I've been saving the ones I have for random PvP encounters.
