Sujet : CT Loot System 1.876 millionth thread about it! Bad game design.

That doesn't change the fact it's poor design that if everyone leaves before people pass they get the item forced on them.

Naw, I agree that it's bad. But until they fix it, making a 1,000,000th thread isn't going to do much about it. I'm sure they'll patch it eventually. My comment was more for the lag spike part.

Personally, I'd argue that any arbitrary caps on content are bad game design. Myth tomes, CT loot, treasure maps, guildhests, coil lockout...

That aside, I agree - if you don't click "Need" or "Greed" it shouldn't apply a lockout.

Too easy to game the system if they do that.

If by "game the system" you mean "be rewarded for play", yes, that would start happening.

Probably try to be the last to leave always, get loot each run. That kind of gaming the system. Heck, people do that with commendations.

Ahhh, I see. I was thinking something more along the lines of the loot just dropping (or perhaps staying in the chest) if no one hits need/greed.

I had someone in a ls complaining about this. It turned out he intentionally did not pass thinking he could still need/greed another item. His wife spilled the beans on him

I agree being able to get locked out this way should be fixed, but I think it just needs to require a roll to obtain any loot item in any dungeon. It should also allow a person to pass if they have lotted accidentally.

This should be a pretty simple/easy fix. As well as making people complete the instance to get their loot. Had enough of people bailing after getting loot on the first boss.

You forgot non-100% droprates. What cap have guildhests?
