All Greed on Alliance loot

[Tridus]

I got a tank piece last night, while healing, only because I was grouped with the tank and knew he didn't need it. If he did and I took away an upgrade? That would suck.

This system is a dumpster fire.

On any raid whose gear is no more reasonable to wear for the ilevel but used for seals, glamour, anything else, everyone can use it that way.
So, greed for all is ok.

And on latest raid, when gear still matters for the ilevel, in a raid with ONE FULL WEEK LOCKOUT on the item, I doubt someone will roll for a piece he doesn't care much.

its already happening, people are stupid, this new system allows that to get in the way easier than ever before. There is no way the current system is better than the old one and there was never a reason to change it anyways...

Keep in mind, this change seems to not be liked by the Japanese side of the forums either in it's current iteration. People seem to be calling for tokens or increased loot drops from every chest if SE is going to buckle down on Greed. Because it sucks.

Y'all can translate more if you want.

P.S. I used to heal Alliance raids all the time because I used Alliance to gear my healers. Got my healer top on a DPS instead outrolling both the other healers. Feels a little bad but, just using the system as intended. I hope they see that top within the next 20 or so runs.

Took a character of mine on a alliance roulette for tomes and the kind, and had gotten Rabanaste.
At the final boss, the healer pants dropped, which was a decent upgrade from Skallic pants at the time and would've saved me some tomes for other pieces. The other healer didn't needed them, so I rolled.

Freakin' Summoner took them.

They said in patch notes that if Greed Only wasn't well received, they would remove it.

So... yeah, we played it.

It's not good. Nobody likes it. Some people will say they don't care but no one actually LIKES the change.

When will the game be rid of this feature?

I don't like the greed option, too. For old content like Void Ark or Crystal Tower I might be okay with it, but they really need to change it for current content. It is terrible for all ppl who play this with their main jobs and need the loot. Pls SE, give us back the need option for current content or give the option for get gear with totems.

I don't mind the greed option if they would make it so people cannot roll again on items they already have, I'M LOOKING AT YOU TRIPLE TRIAD CARDS.

You can turn those in for MGP, though.

Glamour exist and is probably a big reason why quite some people even still run the older raids..but now its even harder for those because next to having no weekly limit that will stop people from rolling on all gear, they can now not even count on the need button..so its also really bad for older raids. And for the newest, just read the last page or last two pages and you will see that people rolling on stuff they dont need right now and people losing it that needed it as an upgrade is already happening.
