Sorry to ask a stupid question. I am kind of new to this type of game.
I have work my way up to 34 paladin, done about 12 dungeons so far. Always got confuse with the loot! does everyone get loot at dungeons? Is it one for each player? Or they are gone once one of the player picked up and other walk out with empty hand?
You "roll" for a chance at each piece. If it's loot you want, roll need when you can and greed when you can't. Last night, I got all but one piece in a dungeon. A lot of times people pass, they just don't care if they get it, don't have room in their inventory, don't roll at all or I got lucky. All I ever do now is to turn it in for seals, but there are those who upgrade their current armor and jewelry with it. Bottom line, it's luck of the draw, but need tends to trump greed.
Loot can only go to one person. For consumables, such as potions, a random person is given the loot, whereas (usually)equipment has a tiered lottery system, based on whether your the gear is meant for your class or not. If it is meant for your class, you can need on it. If it is not, you can greed on it, if you want it. If you don't want it, you can pass on it. Everybody can greed or pass on an item.
Once everybody has chosen to need/greed/pass, the lottery begins. If anybody has needed on it, the equipment is randomly awarded to one of the characters who needs it. If nobody needed on it, it is then awarded to a random person who greeded on it. If nobody has greeded on the item, either everybody has passed or the timer has run out, and the item returns to the aether.
I mentioned that this system is usually for equipment. There are certain crafting materials that also use the need/greed/pass system, but everybody can need on a crafting material, since nobody can enter a dungeon as a crafter.
Everyone has the opportunity to roll on loot. Whether you win or not is based on the luck of the roll and whether anyone is competing with you. Sometimes you get stuff that you can roll "Need" on and if no one else can roll "Need" you could win even if you roll a 1. If someone else can also roll "Need" then you have to roll higher than they do. If you can only roll "Greed" you will automatically lose even if you roll 99 if someone else in the party can roll "Need." If everyone rolls "Greed" it goes to the person that rolled the highest number.
understand now! thanks!
