If gathers can roll on loot from exploritory missions.

you can only roll need if you go premade from your FC airship. from ishgard, premade or random doesn't matter, you can only roll greed

This not true as my static went in there last night not with FC airship and if the gear was slated for your job you could roll need on it. All the trash gear that is turned in for tokens as well as the 210 gear that dropped.

So you are whinning that your own FC is shafting people changing jobs and rolling need? Thats a so awsome FC you have there.

So many misunderstandings in this thread, wow.

OP is talking about going thru DF, not their fc.

-It's greed only for everything no matter what when you go thru ishgard
-You can't kick ppl for any reason whatsoever
-You can lot on stuff your party fights even if you were miles away

I'm in a run right now where a guy started off asking "Btw you guys a premade?"...several say no, he goes "gl then", changes to miner, still lotting everything, and nothing can be done except to join them.

So now half our party is gathering.

So you have 3 options:
1. Deal with it.
2. Can't fight em, join em.
3. Only go thru FC.

He talked about people changing jobs and roll NEED on stuff and that is imposible if you go on Ishgard. The only way to roll need is going with your fc on your airship.

[Alistaire]

Says he's been told that. It's just incorrect for the way he's going about it.

I think if you have a full party premade no matter WHERE you embark from, you can change loot rules, however if random people were added to your party (whether alone or with anything less than a light party) then it's Greed Only

You can need items for your class. We did it last night, we got 4 210 pieces and the classes that needed them hit need and got them. How crappy would it be if a pie ss crit chest dropped and the whm had to roll greed lol.

You cant switch after chest is opened, to bring that item to "need"able.

missed out a BLM Robe with crit, det AND ss on it, but i was forced to go SCH on that starmob as my party was just.... "no comment"

desperately wanted to have it, so my guess was to switch class, but with no success.

Premade from ishgard allows standard need/greed. Did that yesterday.

I guess we will have to wait and see what SE does with the exploration missions. This is going to be a big sticking point for a lot of people in respect to being able to roll on loot that you had no hand in getting because you were either gathering or no where near where the enemies were killed. It goes to the same concept of something like a pony farm like Levi where someone dies by falling in the water then still able to roll. When they get the pony you want to curse Rngesus

Gatherers can find chests, as well. Our group decided to harvest/fish in the last 10 minutes last night and found 5 chests in the process, including silver (normal mode). I think two were from fishing and the rest were buried near nodes.

We had set a time for them to gather and everyone was pretty pleased with it. It might not be the norm but you can't expect much from DF.
