x2 Drops, same old sh*t... 3 times, same run...

From my last post, I got this... "Please don't call out other players on the forums. These sorts of things just lead to drama and witch hunting."
Here, no names this time. Have at it...

    I noticed that some players just roll everything to troll other players. Unfortunately during events like this, It should be reportable and also considered as an act of trolling, maybe?

    That is why in MMO you make lots of friends and join guilds, makes things way easier and less frustrating.
  • i still dont get it is there something that says a person has to drop to please you. If its not a reserved run then thats how it goes. Pray the rng gods

    Is not writen anywhere, you are right, but there exist something called being polite. Most players who have been playing for more than, lets say, 4 months? know this already and pass on stuff they do not need or if it drops the same thing twice, and they happen to get 1, they pass on the second one.

    Unfortunately, rolling on these armors even if you already have it, will keep happening as long as they can be used to enchant same gear. I could roll on a chest piece if i need it to enchant my alt chest piece who happens to have the same type of armor my main has (keep in mid these boxes are not bankable) without spending feedstock.

    it is better than the archer going afk on roll when he is the only leather class in the group and than the dungeon troll us with only leather stuff
  • If none of the drops were reserved and/or none of the players had come to any agreement beforehand, that's how it goes. [filtered] move I understand, but that's how it is.
  • People honestly don't even care in IMS runs.
  • im pretty positive you cannot use amour as fodder unless you have the exact same class... so if you already have a fully enchanted set there's no reason to roll on the amour piece unless you play the same class but what are the chances running into these people...

    I'm sorry. I want the fodder to enchant for my alts.
  • I've said it before and I'll say it again... the game needs a "need/greed" system, as they have in many other MMOs. It's a really simple solution that all-but-solved this problem a long time ago. Alas...

    Plenty of players find a class they like and make several alts of that class, I don't see the problem in doing that. As for rolling on gear for the alts, it's not something I thought of doing since the gear is bind on pickup, but I'd forgotten about gear enchant, so it does make sense to roll on something you might not need if it's for an alt.

    Can confirm. I have 4 priests and 4 slayers.

    This is probably an odd question but...how exactly does that work? It's one of those things everyone seems to have seen yet was never present in games I played(at least played to the point of caring about loot). While I understand the idea, the mechanics of it...can't quite seem to figure it out.
  • There is nothing wrong, i roll on chest boxes to use as fodder since feedstocks are expensive af and enchant chance using them is BS.

    Basically it just means that anyone who can actually use the item ("need") gets priority for that loot.

    If it's gear that you can actually use on your character, you have the "Need" option. Everybody has the "Greed" option (including those with "Need"). So, when it rolls, if one or more people chose Need, it rolls only between those people and the winner in the Need pool gets the loot; the Greed pool is ignored. If no one chose Need (either because no one is eligible or because the people who were eligible chose Greed instead), then it rolls between everyone in the Greed pool. So, in this way, if you're the only one in your party who could actually use a piece of loot, you're guaranteed to get it if you want it; if there are multiple people in your party who can use it and want it, the competition is limited only to that group, increasing your odds. Only when nobody needs an item does it become "free-for-all" loot.

    For the situation described in this thread, it would nearly eliminate the problem.
