A proper looting system?

[Nasibihc]

Now that we have raids and gear that everyone wants is dropping from them. Why wasn't a proper looting system implemented? Or even a /roll command? I don't see any point in just randomly giving the loots to people.

What just happened was that some mage boots dropped in Darkhold, there were 2 mages, they were given to the other mage who was R49, but not to the other mage who was R50, I have no idea if a R49 can even wear those boots as they are R50. So, I suggested that we'd roll for them, but the mage just kept them as in "ninjad" without being even fair about them and not saying a word afterwards. So.. please, a looting system, thanks. Let's make this game fair for everyone.

A rank 49 getting a rank 50 item is hardly problematic, but yeah, an improved loot system would be nice.

just fyi that isnt the point at all, it was just the icing on the cake that he wasnt even the correct rank.
i wasnt there but there is no reason to not implement a proper loot system.

Im sure there is a roll system built in thats how it figures out who to give the item to. It just seems random cause we dont get to see the process. That being said I would like a better loot system.

you have the wrong idea of what the OP is talking about.
a roll system is when they players themselves sort of "roll dice" by typing in /random
when you do that a random number will pop up and that is your number. its also how people decide the order in which people do things like who activates their dungeon run first.

yes we need a roll system.

Yes, please.

I've already noticed going through Toto-Rak that if you happen to get a piece of gear from a treasure chest in the middle of the run, you either have the person it went to not notice or the group doesn't really have time in the dungeon to discuss who the gear should be going to.

A lot system would be much easier to figure out since your group can discuss rules on it beforehand.

I'm pretty sure it's just random.

I was thinking the same thing.. giving the loot randomly isn't the way to do it. I'm sure we can see this in the future patches... it's just a matter of time

Advice for now, if you're doing a raid for gear be VERY clear about that before entering the instance and what the conditions are to 'earn' gear drops in your party (Must be a certain class/rank/free drop/need vs. greed etc. Also, if you are after gear it is best to go on runs with people you trust and know. Yes, a /random command would be hot, but as we don't have it currently, just be clear in what you want BEFORE you enter. And travel with friends. Lastly, I know it's the 2nd day and it's new gear and everyone wants to be the first to wear it, but sharing and helping goes a long way.

(You might not have been the Rank 50 Mage that lost the boots to the 49, but it does look like 80% of the reason you made this post, which yes, points out something the game needs, is because you didn't get what you wanted. Sounds like they dropped to him, that means they are his the way the game is currently set up. I'm sure he'll be rank 50 soon enough...very few people ranked all the way to 49 and then stopped. )

We really do need a /random or /rolldice. Honestly I know they have bigger priorities but something so simple would be very appreciated.

Yes, current loot system is terrible.
