Gear listings in Upgrade finder observation/question (10.2)

So I was digging around in Upgrade Finder for the new season, and I noticed gear listing between the Adventure Guide in WoW and the Upgrade Finder not agreeing sometimes. And I was just wondering the cause, if the flaw in the data is on the Adventure Journal side or the Upgrade Finder side of things?

Example
Mythic+ loot for Black Rook Hold - Holy Priest

Upgrade Finder lists 3 back pieces for Holy Priest from BRH

Cloak of Unwavering Loyalty
Drape of the Raven Lord
Shadowfeather Shawl

However, in the Adventure Journal in WoW for the same Holy Priest it only lists 1 of these

Shadowfeather Shawl

Just out of curiosity I also looked at WoWHead for all 3 of these cloaks, and it does list them as drops in BRH. However, only the Shadowfeather Shawl has listings for Mythic+ 2 though 20.

So I am wondering if the Cloak of Unwavering Loyalty and Drape of the Raven Lord are not actually on the Mythic+ loot tables in 10.2? These items are also found on the BiS list, but they probably run from the same database tables so that would make sense.

I found this when I was trying to make a calculator for the drop % chance of getting loot from each different dungeon, which ones had the highest % chance to drop an item my group wanted from the BiS list.

I’ll take a look today – with the older dungeons that they revamp it can be difficult from just PTR data to determine which items will actually drop when it goes into the M+ rotation.

We just posted an update that should make the drop lists for older M+ dungeons match what the in-game journal is showing now. Whether that’s actually what drops… I can’t say for certain, but it is probable.

Thanks, and that makes perfect sense Especially working with PTR data.

Here is an example of the type of calculator I make based on some of the data, to show which dungeons have the highest % chance to drop something useful for the group. Makes a pretty easy plan to see which keys we should run.
