on elite your loot table includes a higher chance for tomes
theory is
less chance of tome = more chance of raid items
My first toon has 20 elite completions... litany from end reward.
My healer, 2nd toon, had 17 completions.. all hard. Embers, Staff, 2 pairs of gloves, Litany, Enduring Conviction and given away quivers, pantheons, other litanys... Give it a shot dude.
My FvS got 2 LotD, Embers, Cloak and at least 3 Quivers in 19 Elite Runs. A longsword in the hard run I did. And once I diploed the chest and saw 3 LotD at once! (was a blast and is a true story)
The tome theory sounds not really right, to see the influence from increasing a terrible low chance to a almost terrible low chance on the whole loot table, you gotta run a lot of Abbots to prove anything. Especially if you see the fact that elite should have a general higher chance to drop anything named. Saying 'it's Turbine, it is probably bugged' sounds far more right.
Some folks from Lava Divers did at least a few test runs on hard, if there is something fishy maybe one of them knows more.
