Less double drops on mobs

Okay, first of all, this could possibly be a coincidence. However since the "less double drops" patch a few patches or so ago, it seems a few raid mobs have been dropping less loot. If Im correct, this might be because instead of mobs dropping double loot liek before, they now drop only one, and the other item isnt replaced with anything else.

Anyway, the reason I said this is that at least one mob, Crusher, dropped 1 item last time we killed him, which seemed rather odd. A few mobs in TOV that we had killed before are now dropping less items, etc.

Of course, maybe this change was intentional, and had nothing to do with the double item patch. Speaking from a guild thats lacking relic/ancient spells, it seems like mobs we used to be killing are now dropping alot less ancients/relics also. So perhaps mob loot was totally retuned. Anyway, any info would be appreciated.
 
Ancient/relic drop rate was, indeed, lowered.

I think double loot shouldn't happen at all. To clarify, it does, but I don't think it should~
 
I think your right Melwin it seems rather odd if some mob drops 2 of the same lore items. While he should not be able to carry 2 of them.

Khalid means when a mob would normally have a double loot, it is now only dropping one item for its entire loot. Example.. Gertoz the Frozen wants to spawn with two Aegis of the Frozen. Since its a double loot, the code deletes one of them. Gertoz now has only one drop.
 
The code doesn't work like that. It just decreases the chance of an item already present in loot list being picked over the others by 75%.
 
Well, another few examples of mobs Im talking about. Top mob in TOFS dropping one item. Named in POA(the djinni guy) dropping one item. Crusher I already mentioned.

Anyway, just struck me as odd is all. Raid mobs dropping only one item makes me cry deep inside after spending hours setting up and clearing to a named. Granted, item was nice in POA, but still. Of course, could be random chance.

edit : Lenny also dropped one item
