    Lmao why are people defending someone in a couple-run static loot-mastering themselves a coffer. That's some epic contrarianism.

    Yes, the person used their position to take a piece of loot they didn't really deserve. The reasonable objective of a group is to attain BiS for all of its members; it's completely irrelevant whether it drops randomly or comes from a coffer. Anything past that point should be FFA or subject to a new, previously agreed upon set of rules.

    Because leaving anything non-BiS to complete ffa is a great way to generate grudges between those who roll well and those who don't. Generally doesn't matter too much for everything else but weapons and chest pieces are better distributed somewhat evenly.

    Rolls are just RNG. If people are going to cry about it, the group can come to a consensus about a secondary loot distribution plan. Every group I've run in since HW has done FFA after hitting bis with people making requests here and there for specific things; I've never seen anyone form a grudge or throw a fit over it, but I guess that all depends on the maturity of the people in your group.

    You know what really generates grudges and angry forum posts though? Abusing your position and lootmastering yourself items without a group consensus.
