broken need/greed system for loot

[ninjascorpitron]

its pretty lame that someone with a higher gear level item equipped can need on a lower ilevel piece of gear. for example if i run ancients and a piece of 80 dragoon gear comes up i can need on it even if i have 130 gear equipped....which means the guy who has an ilevel 60 piece of dragoon gear now only has a 50/50 on something he NEEDS wheras i just want to turn it in for seals or something

Let's be honest, he doesn't NEED that. Sure might be cool to have, but think of all the other dungeons he will do, all the other parts of crystal tower he'll go to. All the sol and poetics gear. He has plenty of chances and ways to get good gear, usually ancients gear is just for glammour nowadays.

Point being, in the end the random need chance is chill with a single piece of gear, because there's more gear out there and more ways to get it. Hunts, the market, small dungeons with only 4 players (thus easier to not get doubles of dps, and only 1 person will be able to need on each gear piece), sol, poetics, (which both are probably better than ancients gear anyways)

yeah but he could use it as its stronger than his current gear...why does the guy with 130 ilevel for that piece of gear get to need it? by what your saying lets get rid of the need or greed system completely and just random roll for every piece of loot
