Community Manager Bornakk replied to this problem on the official World of Warcraft forums. He claimed that they will try to create loot aplicable to more classes instead of only one: "We do plan to have more specs share some loot. I know it's great when the Retribution-Paladin piece drops, but that's a piece that isn't good for 26 other classes/specs, so hopefully we can make it so the item will apply to more classes/specs so even the randomness of loot won't be so much of a big deal."
The news comes as a good one for the entire World of Warcraft community, making raiding a lot more fun.
