I've been here for about 3 years now and never seen a recipe drop in ToC. I've heard they drop, but according to WoWhead, they should be seen far more often than now. The drops are broken (too few in hard mode) in Ulduar as well, but at least they are fairly common..
Checking out the "current" WoWhead info, the drop rates (not to be confused with chances) seem to be the same for all modes and encounters except 10 normal where they don't drop at all. The rates range from 0.4% to 7% and there seem to be around 17-18 recipes for each faction. If I use an average drop rate of 1.5% * 17.5, it ends up close to 25% so my guess is that every boss should have a 25% chance of dropping a random recipe for the playing faction. Since there are 5 encounters, on average people should get more than one recipe per full, non-10N raid.
The old (3.3.5a) data seems to be gone and IIRC, I looked this up a while ago and remember around 15% drop rate per boss in 10H, 20% in 25N and 25% in 25H.

Re: ToC recipes
Actually believe these have a 1% drop chance from all boss's and these do drop.
The issue is with the fact that the recipes are only seen and rolled for by players with the profession for which they are for.
When master loot is used if the master looter does not have the profession for which the recipe is for then he does not see it so no-one gets it.

Err... so would you be able to AFTER distributing the main loot set it to group loot, just to check if that boss dropped a pattern? It would be really nice to see more of these in the system.

Re: ToC recipes
Yeah, well, I suspected as much since the same issue seems to exist in Outland and classic raids. Unfortunately, it also applies to non-BoP recipes!
The simple solution is group loot (for ToC)?

Re: ToC recipes
Well think main reason why master loot gets used in toc25 is because of Trinkets since ICC trinkets are highly sought after and hard to get.
I had actually tried looking at this issue several months ago and unlike the recipes which drop in classic and tbc 5 man dungeons which do have condition in database which requires profession for these too drop there are no conditions in db for toc recipes, so it seems similar issue as with the quest items which drop in naxx and onyxia where if you have already done quest you cant see item, and there is actually no conditions in db for those either.
But ye not using ML in toc25 would solve this but as said main reason people use it here is because of trinkets.

Re: ToC recipes
Well it's not only the trinkets, people have a bad habit of "needing" trophies even though they are already way past that gear level. Also some of the items that drop in toc make up for the missing GS loot (Easier to get a shield in toc than in GS10, right? At least for the moment) which is why I asked if the patterns would still be displayed if you switched it to group loot after ML distributed the main stuff to check if there are patterns. (Hey, more admin, but it's worth it right?)

Re: ToC recipes
Well it is odd that the ML cannot see the pattern drop if there is no profession condition required to be fulfilled by the ML. Is it possible that this is simply a visual bug? And would making the patterns BoE (if possible) solve this issue? If so, then Crusader Orbs would actually be used for something other than 6 gold.
Re: ToC recipes
AFAIK they are boe, I mean I have a ToC leather wrist bracer pattern on my level 70 rogue for the past 10 levels now. Also we tried to change to Group Loot after ML distributed the other loot to check for patterns in a ToGC25 on Monday, but it seems even then only the ML is actually able to "look/access" at the loot. So IF setting it to group loot is the answer, I doubt we'll see many patterns come from 25hc.
