Need, Greed, Pass....what?

[BlaineCraner]

Have you never played an MMO before?! Who doesn’t know this?

Not everybody will know this. There are not as much MMO players out there as you think. :P
And good. We have enough MMO junkies as it is.

I also did not have time to read the tutorial when it popped up as the rest of my party was moving on.

That is a real problem in the game. I really get annoyed when people run off without giving me any time to read anything. Sometimes you just have to skip the tutorial or the other players loose patience, go ape-sheit and quit the dungeon after 5 seconds. Hence threads like this, where people need to fill out the blanks.

Need is class-specific, when you press need that means you basically REALLY REALLY NEED it ,so no other class can get it but you unless someone else is the same class as you in the party. As for greed you roll against everyone else in you party and pass is self-explanatory.

Wow.. This the New Player Help section, not the bash on people for asking for help section.
Alas, not every MMORPG uses the exact same lootsystem.. Stop being rude.

My Biggest Issue is that it doesn't let LNC/DRG 'Need' on the Aetherial Scale (iron-scale, Steel-scale, etc) (TNK-DEF) Armors despite listing them as equipment for LNC/DRG.

Monster Hunter Frontier games, which have a very different loot systems

I wouldn't call what MH has a loot system, it's more of a "dressing the carcass" system lol.

Totally Off Topic:

Hahahahaha so true! Carve and carry! Monster Hunter Frontier G was announced for the Vita last night! WOOHOO! Only in Japan for now, but the Vita is not region locked so import, import, import. (As long as the servers are not NA locked and the subscription is payable with USD) It also will have cross-play with the PS3 version! That, my friend, is the sound of a million Vitas selling in Japan! I swear I have seen the name GeistXIII somewhere, do you frequent Capcom Unity or have a MH related youtube? The Unity Hunters are all on Coeurl if you ever consider a different server!

Edit: Nice Tigrex!

Edit2: OMG I know you from WAY back in the day on the Playstation Underground forums: http://community.us.playstation.com/.../td-p/30250861 (first one that popped up on Google, totally not a stalker, just had to know where I heard your name!)
I still bug Vengeful and Demo D!

I got Perma banned from unity, because like several other popular players, we protested the move to nintendo(sales are down surprise surprise lol). Oh, and MHFG is releasing for both PS3 and vita, but will with JP, it will have the monthly fee still most likely, and they will most likely ban anyone with a non JP IP(happened to me back before forward 1 came out). My first Youtube channel got deleted because youtube is dumb and thinks everything is copyright infringement, lol. I do Have another on, but i haven't posted anything on it in forever: http://www.youtube.com/user/MakeEmRageQuit

I'm on Phoenix and Hyperion servers. When transfer come in, I might move my hyperion character to a less populated server.

Stuff

LOL! Everyone gets banned from Unity. It was the Playstation Underground I knew you from. So freaking weird...

I am just happy to see MH back on a Sony platform, that means there's hope! I bought a 3DS just for MH3U, they nerfed the hell out of the series, I mean I know it is solo, but G Rank solo should not take 10 minutes. Sad.

[Slatervonjager]

I wouldn't say its a move back to sony, seeing as how frontier is 7 years old, lol. But yeah, my 6 year old niece can take down a jinouga, which should never happen.


I might make a character on coeurl, or wait to transfer one there. are the unity players there some of the older ones like chump, tifa, moropa, etc, or is it all newer people that i wouldn't know as i left unity like 2 years ago?

Thats because it isnt completely based off class, its also based on needed stats. When you join a party, it fills the top bar with the stats that class typically needs. If an item is usable by that class and provides those stats can be Needed by the character.

Like a Shield that gives Int/Mnd can be Needed by a THM, but not a GLD, even though a GLD can use it.

Right, and these give STR & VIT in equal proportions. DRG/LNC Register under STR in the Stat. When I ran Sunken City, I encountered my first ever Tank and Healer that Greeded everything instead of 'Needing' their stuff.
