Better say something when you enter the dungeon. Im gonna roll on everything. Ever since a dragoon rolled on toxtex that I needed for my brd even though i was on whm... At first I didn't care at all that I was loosing greed rolls. Thats Until the second piece dropped and he won. Then said "ah when ever I decide to level archer he will have some good gear. My archer only level 4". He felt like crap when I said my brd was 45, but by then it was too late. Thats when I decided that all my dungeon runs will be for loot. I wasnt mad or anything cause I should have said something in the beginning. Now I dont care though, so Im looting everything and will convert it or trade to the GC.
I know I cant spell.....
-
IF you see a Bard, SMN, or whatever class and you see that it's a GC weapon don't roll GREED on that class'weapon I mean COMEON!
-
Hmm so if I have a valid use for it I should pass so another can use it for there valid reason.... OP did you lose a roll and post this due to being butthurt About it?
-
Will this item be an upgrade? If yes then I will need on it.
Will this item be worse than what I have on? If yes then I will greed on it.
Those are the two simple rules I follow when loot drops in a dungeon.
-
If somebody says "Hey if <X> pops up can I have it?" or "If any SMN drops turn up, can I have them?" at the start of a run then 9.9/10 times I'll say yes, because it's just a nice thing to do. I'm not psychic though, so do speak up and don't leave it until a few minutes later when I've already rolled.
I've got no issue with people rolling on things they don't need though - everyone needs the gil/seals/materia.

Honestly you truly need to form a party from a LS or FC, ONLY. When you PUG or use the Q, you get cross-server players. They dont care about you and you probably dont care about them. As a crafter, I ask people to pass on vintage mats (blunt dag, dented celeta ect), but I also roll need on any pinks/greens. I turn them in for seals.
NOW when im with FC/LS I simply ask if an item is an upgrade to anyone else who can need it. If they say no, ill need on it.
-
It's a tough call on greens that can be sold for money. While logic would dictate that you would "Greed" on it if you wanted to sell it, folks in random dungeon groups usually aren't on the same page and would probably just Need it anyway even if it wasn't an upgrade for them.
-
This is an ongoing problem in MMOs, people needing on items for off class... when there are others players in their main class that need the item. I have seemed to solve this problem by bringing it up at the beginning of instance. Be polite and your party members will most likely understand.
-
Well, it depends with the type of gear, I would always roll need for Coliseum Gear in Darkhold even if already have it since it sells really well on the marketplace and I'm kinda poor. :(
As for other types of gear like the Battlemage drops on Brayflox, there's no need to roll need on those items if I already have them since you can't sell those and if you do you are just being mean to other ppl that want that gear.
It will also depend with who I'm running the dungeon, if someone in my FC/LS want an specific piece of gear I would pass the item if I have no use for it even if I can sell them.

Not getting the point of thjis thread, really. Sorry OP, but you're being as selfish as the people you are calling selfish, because in your eyes, your reason to have the item is more important than the other person's. It's the exact same reasoning they are needing on those items, because they believe their reason to have it is more important than yours. Ironic, isn't it?
Yes, converting gear into materia or seals is a perfect valid reason to grab gear you won't equip. Yes, greeding / needing gear for other classes is a valid reason because you can play the other classes.
I particularly don't need stuff that are not upgrades for me (and honestly I don't even think about other random DF party members, it's just that my armoury chest is already full as is and I have no use for seals right now), but going as far as calling someone else selfish just because he didn't pass an item? Naaaaaaah.
Also, if you really need the item, just ask for it on pt chat and the vast majority of people will actually pass on it unless we're talking about some super rare drop.
