I think the problem with the liche king loot table, is yes it isn't ... you know... just isn't that 'special'.
I'm at the stage on my combat rogue where anything that drops in 10 man, I just don't need. And we've been stuck on rotface for what seems like lvl 20.
I eventually get to arthas and all I have too look forward to is http://www.wowhead.com/?item=51800#. or http://www.wowhead.com/?item=51801 mean at this point I have the combat rogue 251 axe set, I also raid 25 man regular- nothing to serious such one a weekend the guild and another one joins forces, I'll eventually get something from that.
I enjoy playing combat, I couldn't really raise a meh over a dagger, but its got ArP on it- which is the stat I just want now. The fist weapon is just a fist weapon, I imagine enhance shammies want it more than I do.
Then if you get onto the 25 man table, its another bloody dagger with ArP, and a axe that looks exactly the same to the pair I have now.
Mean come on I'm killing the Liche king, I want to strut round dalaran with a weapon that people know, just by looking at me, that I have killed the liche king.
Something like the nibelung, fair enough the proc is fairly useless, its still cool- thats the sort of thing that Arthas should be dropping, not some re-used model in a different colour.

The daggers don't have ArPen anymore. The 10 man dagger is getting expertise, and the 25 man haste.

still... its daggers, I just don't like the cookie cutter-ass spec. Its my personal preference.
I wouldn't expect a loot table to reward every single class-spec combo, I'd be happy to have a axe/sword/mace with the exact same stats with what I'm running with now (thats a worse case scenario). What really bugs me is the re-using of models on what honestly should be something special.
The nibelung as an example, is something that stands out. Of course it would be silly to expect every weapon to be spawning cats and faeries, but it has something unique to it. But it drops from a fairly simple boss fight.
I have no idea about the model it uses, I can't really get excited about sticks. I don't get why something that 'special' hasn't been used as a Arthas drop. Again the stats and what not are not ideal, but it does something different- it stands out.
Thats all I'm really QQ'n about, a loot table that throws up nothing extraordinary looking apart from a low drop rate horse.
