Haven’t you ever wondered when a mob’s drops are determined in Blizzard’s World of Warcraft? Some players asked that very question on the official WoW forums, drawing the attention of Community Manager Drysc.

Drysc pointed out that the game generates mob loot as soon as the enemy is created. He added that a date stamp is used to seed the generator making it impossible for players to determine the outcome.

So there you have it. Apparently, the loot drops in the game are truly random and there is nothing players can do to change that.
