Petition to Fix Loot Rolls

**LoganBGone** · 03-14-2014 11:14 AM

No matter where you are coil, CT, Dungeons, Primals etc.

If you are the only Class that can "Need" on an item. You should not have to wait on everyone else in the party to decide if they want to "greed" or "pass". No matter what they choose the item is yours. That is how it is. Another issue that I myself and others have had was. When you leave the area after hitting "Need","greed" or "pass" you lose out on your roll. I understand that it is how they made the game. But that does not mean its ok.
It is something that can be fixed. Adding a respond later button to Ready check is something that does not make sense. If you click on the respond later you are obviously not ready. But that's not the point of this conversation. I am just asking that people stand up and help vote on fixing the Loot rolls. Especially since we have to pay to play.
I think it would make some people out there feel better if they left an instance and didn't have to worry about losing their roll. <(^_^)>
Cast your vote good change or bad (don't see how it would be bad)

And yes I know FF 11 had the same loot system. That does not mean they can't change it. They changed a whole lot of things from 11.

Except not everyone that can Need on something will.

What will happen to Greed-only parties? Or what if the person who can Need has the unique item already? It just drops to the floor?

**LoganBGone** · 03-14-2014 11:23 AM

No lol, if its a Greed party then Greed party it up. What im asking shouldn't effect that. Im saying hit the Greed button, but be free to leave the area and not lose out on a roll. If you want to cancel your role maybe add a cancel feature? As for the person already having the item. They can not Need on it anyway since they have it. That's how it is right now in the game.

**PArcher** · 03-14-2014 11:29 AM

Then I have absolutely no idea what you're asking for.

Your post says, to me, that if someone can need on an item, it goes to them without having others roll. Which makes greed parties useless, and if they can't take the item, it drops to the ground.

If you're just ticked off because you needed on something and left the room before everyone else passed/greeded...well, that's your own fault and don't leave an instance until after loot is given out

I think what im asking is pretty clear. If im the only Dragoon. When I hit Need on the item I want. It does not matter what anyone else hits. The item will go to me no matter if you greed. If you want a greed party then you all roll greed. What im asking is after you roll greed you should be allowed to leave the area even if everyone has not rolled yet and Not lose your opportunity to get the item. I think I made it pretty clear. And yes I am ticked off about things like that. This is why I am asking for them to change it. I already know how it is at the moment.

Then here's my answer:

Stop being so impatient and just wait out the loot rolls.

**LoganBGone** · 03-14-2014 11:41 AM

No basically what they are saying is it is only a couple minutes before the item will drop making it not that big of a deal. I mean seriously you click a button and cannot wait 2 minutes for an item to drop to you? What is so game breaking that this really needs fixing? Look at how many replies there have been up to this point supporting your idea and (more importantly) stressing the need for it to be fixed. Kind of tells you how far up the "this needs fixed" chain this issue really is.

Also, adding the respond later makes perfect sense, before if you responded "not ready" that was your answer for that moment and beyond. Prior to the option you had to select "not ready" but were unable to change your status when you actually were, you know, "ready". This allows you to inform the rest of the group when you are actually "ready" without having to do another ready check or ask you 30 seconds later.

Oh and by the way, simply calling someone a troll because they do not agree with your position and offer you a counter point ("Stop being so impatient and just wait out the loot rolls.")... well let's just say "thumbs up", stay classy. (kind of funny and telling that the reply you didn't like is the only thing to get any "likes" in this tread so far).

Having a "Need"ed item autodrop if a person lots Need should theoretically be possible. It would just increase processing time since the server would have to check that no one else in your party is eligible to "Need" on the item. Which is probably part of why they didn't program it that way. As for being able to roll if you leave the instance. That is borderline impossible since that's all handled on the DF Server and someone in your group can be from a completely different World. This would also open up trolling if it were possible since people leaving the instance wouldn't be exempted from rolling and could still run out the loot timer.
