"Need" should check ilevel

[Sylari]

Some people place vanity higher than stats, they don't have any less right to the item.

Right. So they can greed on it like everyone else. Rolling on an item you don't directly need to use for some other purpose is kind of what the whole need vs greed dichotomy supposedly means in the first place.

I understand the reasoning but it might feel like players with a high item level are being punished and make it very difficult for them to obtain any further loot. The players with a lower level can still gather tomes to increase theirs while loot remains random.

I don't really see how it's a punishment to say "Hey, maybe that guy who just hit 50 should get that level 60 weapon over the guy who will stick it on his retainer and never ever use it on any serious content".
[QUOTE=bardaboo;1781399]What's next... Greed should check players job lvls so someone with a lvl 1 marauder cant greed over someone with a 45 war?

No, because that's a false equivocation. The whole point of greed is exactly for that

It's just something you have to deal with

That doesn't mean it's a good thing.
