Blizzard, if your going to create encounters such as Golemagg that force some Raid members to split from the main group or ones like Onyxia that last much more than 6 minutes long, then please bring back our Combat Rez. Too many people are being screwed out of loot not because they "suck" but because the either Crit 1 to many times or put themself before another. If all you can say to all the questions is "Working as intended" please give us more options to rez people in combat.
Now does this belong in the suggestion forums? possibly, but this involves many high end raid encounters so i believe here is a good spot for this post.

I think there are two things going on here.
1. There seems to be a looting bug preventing dead players from looting mobs. This sounds like a bug. I'll look into this.
2. Regarding combat res, it's a very powerful mechanic. We removed the ability from priests, paladins and shaman for a reason. In our early raid testing of Onyxia, it was still viable for classes to res in combat. We'd find that our raid would fail an encounter (i.e. have NO hope of defeating it), yet at the same we could infitinely keep throwing bodies at the monster. There needs to be some fail condition on encounters. If you're counting on resurrection to beat encounters (beyond Druid combat res and soulstones), you're doing something wrong or perhaps not yet ready to defeat that encounter.
