    Uh..you do realize those aren't vanity sets, right? lol they're amazing for their level for people leveling and actually need them to use..as gear for their jobs.

    Unique appearance found nowhere else? Check.

    That makes it a candidate for a vanity set. And I am just as entitled as you to roll need for it if i don't have it, for that purpose. Which is what it boils down to.
    You have a purpose in equipping it for stats.
    I have a purpose in equipping it for appearance.


    Your purpose is not of greater or lesser importance to my purpose. I also have 3 other jobs i can use that set piece for.
    And if I'm there on a class that can roll need on it, and i don't possess it, you're damn straight I'm rolling need on it. I worked just as much for any given drop as you did.
    If you want specific drops, for a specific reason, be it stats or vanity and you aren't on the right class for it, just say so. I've never met a DF party that didn't just let me have the Greed roll if i specifically requested it.

    A 'vanity set' is any gear with an appearance I like. Hell, i love most of the Raptorskin set, and keep it in my bags for strolling around town. That makes it a vanity set, not to you, but for me.

    Bottom line is, if you want something, you do the dungeon on the required class to Need roll it as a way to mostly guarantee you will get it. Or you run with a premade group with the intent for you to pick up that item.
