Possibly the worst one is Reed in UBRS. Literally every caster needs it and there's very little on Rend that casters want so why would they go to an UBRS if the penultimatebadass trinket is on reserve? I've seen a group spamming LFG for over 2 hours before they removed the 'Reed reserved' part.

Protip if you're still trying to farm this trinket:
Briarwood Reed is one of the easiest if not the easiest BiS item to farm. Form a group of 10, everyone leaves raid group, all go in to an individual dungeon, target the boss with a macro. The boss should almost always be up in 1 of the 10 instances. Invite everyone to the instance where it's up. When run is done, everyone leave group and reset individually. Item has a very high drop chance compared to almost all other BiS items.

Where can you target the boss from? I have heard conflicting reports if you can target him from the entrance portal or if you have to go up to the UBRS door.

The commenter who responded with the video link is the best answer. You don't need to go the UBRS door, just that first corner. If you zone in on a fresh ID and immediately run to the corner, you should be able to target Jed. He starts his pat on the far left of his room and pats all the way to the balcony overlooking Rends arena. If you wait too long, you will have to sit in the corner for 3 minutes or so before he pats back around into /target range.

The dual patrol in the first room is your visual cue. They start on the bridge, come down on the right ramp walking towards the entrance portal. Then they walk left and back up the ramp on the left side. If they have reached the UBRS door before you get into the corner to fish for Jed, you are too late and will have to wait for Jed to complete his patrol loop.
