One thing I've noticed may be wrong with the brute / sarnak cycle at the moment. Killing Bloodscale the Vicious is supposed to end the cycle for a while, and it does. However, the respawn time on the cycle restarting seems to be either too long or isn't in there. I killed him last night, the cycle stopped. It still wasn't up today some 12 hours later or so. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I think killing Bloodscale the Vicious only delayed the cycle 3 or 4 hours at most, maybe less? I never sat around in classic waiting for it to repop, I just have a vague recollection of hearing it was on the order of hours, not a half day or more.
I dunno how rare exactly the loot should be on brute/sarnak cycle, no idea how it'd be possible to know something like that. It just seems overly low at the moment compared to what I remember. The nameds themselves are rare, and there seems to be a less than 10% chance of drops in that cycle. For rare spawns, something along the lines of a 20-25% drop rate would seem to be more reasonable unless there's some evidence it was a lot lower.
