New Loot System for Raids from 4.3 on

I very rarely post feedback; but this change is horrible. Please change it back! Thanks.

This was a bad change. Please change it back!

Please change it back. This just makes it harder for everyone. If they really want a specific piece of loot, they should just be running it on that class :/ now it's difficult for EVERYONE to get what they want

Hopefully with the mass backlash they received that they would implement a fix with the next scheduled patch

But if you look at the Japanese forums, they're baffled by it too.

I feel sometimes they make up "player suggestions"

Its bad enough when you enter one of these dungeons as, for example, a SMN looking for a specific piece only to see a BLM in the same party. I'm sure everyone does the same thing:"let me examine this guy to see if he already has the piece I need."
It sucks when you have to roll again one person. Now, we have to roll against seven. And it is not just the one time, mind you. Every time you queue for these new raids, you'll always be rolling against seven other people. But it doesn't stop there. At the beginning of the week, the weekly is flooded with people who want their loot and at the end of the week you'll be lucky if you even get to see the inside of the place since anyone who has their loot isn't queuing.

This is a terrible system and does not actually address any problems with the system. I don't want to have to spend 30+min in a queue as a healer only to lose all my rolls to tanks and dps.

If you want loot for a job, play on that job. If you can't then you get a chance at loot if those who are playing those jobs don't need it themselves.

so give us back need > greed > pass loot rules

This change makes it extremely hard to gear up alt jobs because now you're rolling against 7 other people on every thing.

Honestly this loot change is one of the dumbest things they've ever implemented into the game, and whoever thought this was a good idea should immediately be fired.

If you want gear for a particular job, you should PLAY THAT JOB.
