    it was even separated for you. Can you read?


    there needs to be something
    ohh would you look at there, for those with higher levels of people skills, a discerning person can empathize with the underlying problem that (if there was a solution) could be solved. but let's troll instead, because we are cool

    I mean, there doesn't need to be anything to fix your mistake. Things happen. We're only human, after all. As far as some sort of exchange...sure, I could get behind that, but perhaps it could be in the form of a special currency. Trading one piece of gear for another takes away from how the system is designed, and it works just fine for what it is. I've been in your shoes before. It's unfortunate, but life goes on.

    I'll be honest, your situation is a first for me since I dont think anybody ever goes into raiding "accidentally" rolling for loot they cant equip.

    1. Aglaia is the current alliance raid tier, so the content is padded out to ensure the activity doesnt just completely die out within a month or so. If you were able to bis gear up your character in just a few days by running current raids repeatedly then that invalidates the longevity of the content. This was the case for Pandaemonium Normal gears where the token items you acquire were only limited weekly, but now that new and better gear is out they lifted that restriction.

    2. Greed option is there because people can obtain gear for alt jobs. If the raid gated you to being able to only acquire item pieces your current job can only equip then that makes gearing up other classes a hassle, since not everyone wants to feel forced to run content on a job they might not have the required item level to enter.

    3. Blaming the devs for not being able to address every single little issue over others is disingenuous. Now I totally understand some of the more popular problems this game have been a thing people were waiting (and still are) for them to fix for a looooong time, and thats perfectly valid. But Its kinda petty and childish on your part to whine about them not fixing your problem over others.

    4. Now you know how current raiding gearing works. You almost always only allowed one item upgrade a week till a new tier drops. The best I would suggest if you're being very genuine over your "greed' mistake is to go to a GM and explain the situation. I'm not sure if they'll be able to help you about maybe retrying this week for an item you need but it doesnt hurt to ask as long as you're not...well...basically as long as you dont type it out in the rabid way like you did here with this thread lol.

    Why come to the fourms to complain about this? It isn't gonna do anything. You failed to read that it's one piece per week. Learn from it and try again in 7 days.

    I mean.. its right there, big yellow letters above the loot window. It sucks, but you rolled on the gear without reading.. The game specifically warns you about it. There's no choice but to just wait till next week.

    Live and learn, and my god man, take a breath.

    I find "Greed" a very useful option. I really only have time to run Aglaia once a week, and I simultaneously gear up a tank, healer, and RDM - so if a piece drops for one of those other classes besides the one I'm running, I'll Greed it.

    Reset day is Tuesday and usually maintenance is on a Tuesday, but this was an emergency maintenance to fix a bug.

    The newest content only gives you gear on a 1-per-week basis. Once that gear is no longer relevant or a new version of that content is released, the loot restrictions get removed.

    Need is only available if you are on the class that the gear is for, otherwise you can only Greed. The Greed roll will only happen if the people who can Need choose to Pass.

    It doesn't matter because you can just buy 580 crafted gear from the market board and then visit Radz-at-Han to upgrade all of it to 590, the same item level as the loot you get from Aglaia.

    The normal raids (released in sets of 4) have a weekly loot restriction on each floor for a few months, but this has since been removed. The savage versions of those only let you have a chance to roll on the loot each week and even if you pass, you can't roll again that week. The weekly cap on the tomestones of 450 lasts for 8 months until a new tomestone releases and this cap effectively limits you to one piece of gear a week.

    In other news, there is no technical debt from 1.0.
    "We don't have ... a technological issue that was carried over from 1.0, because ARR was meant to kind of discard what we had from 1.0 and rebuild it from the engine."

    I mean... yeah. You made a mistake. Now you know better to not blindly roll. It's been this way since long time ago.

    Yes, that's it. I also don't like some loot rules, for example that in savage we have only 1 loot chance per clear per week, instead of 1 item per week. But that's another topic. In general we have to read and if we fail on this so we learn. :')
