if you run ICC the hilt will get replaced after a couple of bosses, if you don't run icc toc has comparable weapons, if you don't raid a green weapon is good enough for heroics, if you are a PvP freak i'll tell you a secret: there are pvp weapons
useless weapon is useless
Epic questline is epic.
Some people like to experience the quest, have it as a "souvenir" whatever.
He wants to have the hilt, you don't care. Neither POV is invalid.
However you did not answer the question.
I think the idea is interesting, but it's unlikely Blizzard would implement it.

Winning the hilt was an epic moment. A moment like, "wow, one of us is going to be lucky!" to "woah, it was me?" I liked that. Farming for splinters would hurt that epic moment somewhat.

useless weapon is uselessDon't be so sure about this, comparable weapons can be very difficult to find for some spellcasters. I expect that my priest will be using the spell mace for some time to come, because it is very nicely itemised - no spirit, no MP5, just the good stuff.
And like Kitty said, the quest line is epic, I'm enjoying it as much as I enjoyed the warlock dreadsteed quest line.

I've been running the dungeons since 3.3 was released, and have yet to see ONE drop, yet I've seen people saying that they've had six drop for them so far...meh. I don't need it on my main, but I'd like to upgrade my alt's ToC10 weapon...
And yeah, still sells for upwards of 10k on US-Dalaran.

The only 10 man weapon that's potentially better for druid tanking than the
Lightborn Spire
, is
Hersir's Greatspear
, which drops off Prince Valanar - whom my guild is a LONG way from downing. And even then its a toss-up.
You should know what you're talking about before you speak.

Like many others I am tryin to get the
Battered Hilt
. On my server is still sells for over 11k. Which is a lot, and I think it is a bit unfair some are having a lot luck with it and others have to spend weeks to get it. (I am aware that this is actually true for all drops.)
So, while doing a FoS, I thought of another way to make this maybe a bit easier to get for those designated to get it.
It would actually be the same as the
Eternal system
.
With this I mean you would be able to find something like: "Scattered Piece of a Hilt". Which would drop for like 2% of the mobs that can drop
Battered Hilt
. (10x the current drop rate of
Battered Hilt
.)
Combining X pieces of those splinters (Ten for instance,) Will create a Battered Hilt, which starts the questline as it does now.
What is your opinion about this? :)
My opinion is that you do not know what you are talking about. Battered Hilt has between
1-2% chance to drop
.
So with your idea, you would not have more chance to get it, you would have even less chance. Having to collect 10 items that has a 2% drop chance each means you have 2 chances / 1000 to get them all. This is 0.2%.
Battered Hilt is meant to be rare. 10k gold is nothing. You can make that within 2 weeks.

My GL's husband had two drop in the same run of H HoR and he won them
BOTH!
So now he has a shiny new motorcycle and my GL (Holy Pally) has a shiny new sword!

Quel'Delar is also an achievement for those who are after them, more than "just" a weapon.
