What would be an amazing idea is if you were wearing better gear than what dropped, you shouldn't be able to hit need on it.
.... And how exactly are you supposed to get vanity sets then? Such as Battlemages, Foestrikers, Acolytes many others that look pretty awesome.Since under your proposal, I can't roll need on 50 Monk in Darklight for that Colliseum chestpiece, even though i want it for vanity purposes, and no one else can quip it in the group, it just goes to the void then i suppose?

No, no, no. The system is fine as it is.
Need = Your current class/role can equip it.
Greed = Your current class cannot use it, but you want it for an alt job/seals/Materia
Pass = You don't want or need this at all. (Or cant roll because unique)

That WHM in lvl 30 gear needing on Battlemage is fine. He was likely using the gear for Materia Soulbinding because he wanted to make some Gil, and also wanted Battlemages for when we get Vanity slots.
