Should SE implement a loot roll timer? (Especially for ST)

[Desidious]

A few times I've come across a huge playerbase that likes to take advantage of those with a tight gaming schedule and not roll on the last piece of loot on Circus tower. Everyone wants the UAT, sands, oils, and even the minion but trying to force users out that don't have time to wait is a bit absurd and rude. We all (maybe not all) worked together to get towards the end so why does the comradery stop when it's time to get the last piece of loot?

Please look into having like a 30sec-2min final timer for the final loot. I'm not sure how to handle those that d/c but maybe someone has a decent suggestion for this. This is for those that don't have infinite time to wait to see if others will roll for their loot. They know that users might just drop out so it causes some colorful conversations.

People that play this game have families, work, other important errands to do so this leaves those troll characters that have the time to troll others more control over what happens.

For CT, you just finished a dungeon that took up to or longer than an hour. Is another 3mins really going to make or break your plans? That's a bit less time than a wipe would waste too

EDIT: to be less snarky, there is a timer on each dungeon. If you don't have the time 'set aside' to play til that timer runs out (factors in wipes, low DPS, etc) you shouldn't be in the dungeon. Never expect a 'quick' run when with randoms especially (which is everything with ct), always leave time for error. 3mins at the end is negligible compared to the 60 to 120 min dungeon timers

No offence OP, but im not sure if you're whether being really naive, or living in a different dimension.

^^^ This. Are they being dicks? Yes. But suggesting that you zoned in and said "I have EXACTLY 45 minutes and I have to leave" and expecting the dungeon to be done and over by then is insanity.

If you were ok with the time it took to kill the boss. You have 3 more minutes.

Then my roll of 15 won me the oil, though I seriously considered dropping due to my roll though. Couldn't have been more pleased.

1st day of CT2 FC member rolled a 6 on the UAT. He zoned out because he assumed he couldn't win with a 6.... No one else rolled -_-

ST is fine while it still has the loot lockout it's when it's lifted we'll get problems.

Doesn't it go beyond just three minutes? I'm or sure people were troll rolling up to ten minutes before the alliance chat got super heated.

Each chest has a 3 min timer before loot drops, rolls cast or not.

It's a 5 minute timer. As I said in another thread, SE gives us 5 minutes to decide what to do with the loot. It is the player's prerogative whether or not to use the full 5 minutes. If the item isn't worth waiting 5 minutes for then do you really need it?

Honestly, the five minute timer is a little excessive. I feel like it could easily be dropped to about 3 minutes, but I could easily be overestimating players' communicative capabilities there.

You open the loot window (1 second) - there is 2 items! you check the item one-by-one (3 seconds for one) then - you know if you want it or not. (1 second) You click need/greed.. or PASS. (1 second) you go to the next one (3 seconds) - you know if you want it or not. (1 second) You click need/greed.. or PASS. (1 second)

1 Minute would be sufficient. But let's say some would be stressed and click the wrong button.. ok, 2 minutes max.

Then again, if all 24 peeps open their windows at around the same time, there is no way in hell to have to wait until the timer is near the end.

I accept the challenges anytime, and if you rolled 1 and hope, I would get a 2
