Undocumented Feat of Strength changes in 3.2
So you may recall my excitement at getting Thunderfury back in July adding yet another feat of strength to my collection. Well recently I heard from a reader, [Skipt of Anvilmar], who completed the questline and joined the druid-thunderfury club. One wierd thing though was that no feat of strength was awarded.
After a post on the bug forums it appears that an undocumented 3.2 change has caused this. Apparently you need to equip the item to get the feat of strength, this is somehow tied into the change allowing BOP items to be traded to others in the raid.
Now I definitely agree that this was a necessary change for some items, like the VoA mammoth, otherwise players could trade a single drop around and all get the feat of strength. It doesnt make sense that this should stop Skipt being awarded the feat though!
Let’s hope that this is fixed in a future patch eh?

I agree, feat of strengths should be allowed on certain BOP items without being equiped.
Well its only a very few items there are giving an actual Feat of Strenght, so why don’t they just make a single script for each of those items so it can’t be traded off.
that sucks so much,,,,they should get that fixed asap
being bored i decided to bump that thread and a gm posted in it saying:
“We’ll take a look at both of the issues you’ve listed to make sure they’re working correctly. Thanks for the report. “
Oh cool, good luck Skipt!
Every GM I contacted says the same thing in one way or another, that Thunderfury must be equipped. The reason why I am still “fighting” for this FoS because it is totally different from the Legendary Bow and warglaives. For Thunderfury, you must go through an “epic questline” in order to achieve the weapon, and the weapon, is to me, the reward for doing so, and just as the wording says, I should get the FoS for completing the quest to obtain it.
