You have a point, maybe that guy trully loves that set and has been farming it since forever. Even that rolling need for desynth/seals is just mean

People are awesome!

/irrelevant rant over

Possibly a reportable offence? Sounds like you stumbled into a partial preformed group that had their own loot rules (which shouldn't apply to you).

Rolling for desynth and seals is perfectly valid, that player may be progressing on their zodiac weapon, which requires both desynth materials and a lot of GC seals. If you were just a couple pieces worth of seals away from affording the last mat for your zodiac, couldn't you see the value of rolling need on a piece?

You can only roll need by virtue of being able to wear the item, though? It would be a lot easier for everyone if people just admit they roll need for non wearing purposes because they don't want to have competition on the roll. This is why gear turn in and crafting destruction have been dumb in every game they have ever been put in.

But unlike people that need the item for glamour/wear you don't need that specific item for desynth/seals
There are other ways to get those items without going to dungeon and try to hoard all the loot

wait a sec...

I have a three-stage solution to the OP's problem:

1) shut your pie hole
2) roll better
3) deal with it

The only thing which "need" means in terms of DF groups is "I am able to equip this item on the class I queued as, and I don't already have one of it if it's a unique item". Your reason for "needing" something is no more valid than anyone else who can need on it.

In my view rolling for glamour is a want, not a need. Therefore should lotting for glamour should be using greed.

People are okay with any item that can be used for desynth/seals even if it can't be used for their jobs
The gear that you can get without dungeon it's worse that the gear that the dungeon gear and they need that the item can be used for his job. But the best ways to farm demimateria/seals don't include going to dungeons

The greed button is called greed for a reason, you don't need that item, you are just being greedy about what you can get with that item (demimateria/seals)

Not this again....

Do we really need to have a topic about "limiting" peoples ability to get gear other then to wear it (despite said gear having multiple uses) every time someone loses a roll ingame?
