I just read the patch notes for the latest patch and it seems that heroic level 30 bounties just received a buff:
All Heroic Level 30 Bounties will now include at least one pile of Legendary Coins (chosen from the selection of Coins designated for each Bounty) as part of their Bounty completion rewards.
This doesn't seem right to me, as I've been grinding Winterspring Ursula for the entire day now, and have received multiple Thrall-less completion rewards. Can anyone care to confirm that this is indeed the case or is this just a reading comprehension error on my part?
EDIT: Looks like I just forgot to update my client. But hey guess what! It looks like they forgot to mention that, although you're guaranteed legendary coins, TOTAL coins have dropped (I'm seeing quantities of 15 Thrall and Antonidas coins all of a sudden, whereas before it was never less than 20). So blah. Excitement levels stoked.
UPDATE: Having just grinded 10 more heroic bounties, I believe the rate of Legendary coin drop has dropped significantly (I would guess to maybe 5%) as I received 0 additional legendary coins throughout all 10 trials. The rate of epic coin drop appears to have increased by much, however, as I ended up with a rate of 55%. Still early data, but expected value of epic / legendary coins has probably dropped since the last patch.
Is that post-patch? Not entirely sure what time the patches actually hit. As I understand it, you'll always get one bundle of the legendary on HC now (which means the entire odds of drops change. Sigh. Not respading to see if it's a 27% chance per for the two remaining bundles), which fits my few data points. It reads as the breakdown going from 1 random, 1 party, 3 rewards to 1 random, 1 party, 1 reward leg, 2 rewards as before. But I'm not sure when the patch hit today.
From memory there's one or two L30 HCs without a legendary, though might be misremembering?
I don't feel that they really needed a buff, honestly - the rate was passable at 27%ish per bundle. Of course, what they could be doing is guaranteeing one and droppnig the rates for the others, though that still comes out to a minor buff overall.

Looks like I just forgot to update my client :P. But new feature! The bounty completion rewards are now the top 3 boxes, not the leftmost ones.
