Stop Giving the "Need" Command for Drop Gear in Dungeons to Higher Geared Players!

[Cordie]

If you need, for example, loot for your MNK (or whatever class), why don't you simply enter the dungeon with your MNK? ...

You ignored the relevant point (click the "show" section, it won't bite).
And you are moving this off-topic.

Anyways:

First of all, why would someone want to use my character name? Any ideas about that?
Secondly, the name was available for a looooooong time, about a year after my first character on some servers. If someone wanted it they could just take it.
Thirdly, out-of-game communication is reserved for out-of-game people.
Finally, it would be much more effective to have characters with different names if they were used for stalking. Plus, they would need to have access to other areas too than just Ul'dah.

Not sure about your relic, I didn't bother with Lodestone for stalking yet, but in the example you mentioned there are more fundamental things to be clarified to that (hypothetical?) player than getting loot for seals turn-ins.

I know those and I have posted something in there as well, I think.

It's just... If you have a low weapon then go for the next higher one? Or get a crafted one? You said before that everyone who wants to desynthezise (sorry, no native english, not sure how to spell x.x) you should go get crafted gear. Uhm... If you are having a hard time in dungeons, because of lacking ilvl, why don't you go and get crafted gear? ö.ö It's 5 ilvl above highest dungeon drop so...
I can see why it's frustrating sometimes and I do get your point that it might be hard to equip off classes, but I think the way you want to solve the problem is the wrong one and you are trying to bring up arguments which can be turned around too easily :x
So no real solution here. :/

Even if you are not Level60 yet and want leveling gear you can go get the crafted stuff. It might be below your level, like: you are level 55 and gear is lvl53, but that is still fairly good for your dungeons.
Or, if you are level60 and want to equip other classes without playing them you can still do Alex NM, which gives you items you can exchange for gear for literally every class. ^^ Maybe that system might be better for you and fit yout needs? ^^

So wait, am I the only person who only needs if it's an item I haven't gotten yet (and will usually still pass if I know someone needs it for stats)? If I'm planning to desynth or turn in I'll usually greed instead, unless it's a material or something that everyone can need on.

Seriously, I just assumed this was the proper etiquette for these situations.

desynthezise (sorry, no native english, not sure how to spell x.x)

Switch the 'z' and the 's' and you're fine.

That's what I do. If I don't need the gear to wear, I greed on it. It's the etiquette I learned from every other MMO I've played and I will stick to it. I don't feel that my want for seals from a piece of healer gear (my main is a healer, so that's what I'm usually doing in dungeons) is any more important than what the rest of the party would likely do with it.
