This info went life on Guru on the 18th causing EVERYTHING to spike. I knew about it before it was on that damn forum too and I missed it GRRR!! lol But if you have stock now is a good time to sell.
Isaiah Cartwright recently commented on the official forums that loot will change in regards to the mega boss events. Here's the full quote:
In the next release we will adjust the way that world mega bosses award their loot. The current chests will stay lootable once per day per character, but each boss’s guaranteed rare item drop will be moved to a separate chest (visually similar to daily achievement reward chests) that can only be acquired once per day across an account.
Our intention with this change is to keep providing rewarding loot for world mega bosses while avoiding overwhelming participation in boss fights (and overwhelming the economy with rares) from players cycling through each character slot for each boss every day. [Source]
