Stop Giving the "Need" Command for Drop Gear in Dungeons to Higher Geared Players!

[ManuelBravo]

Need is for equipping - that's why the Need button is restricted by job/class. Greed is for everything else. If you need for seals or desynth, you are taking advantage of the system in an unfair way and deciding that your want is more important than everyone else's who also want that item for the same thing you do.

Need is used by class as a reason on why you need it. If your playing that role why shouldn't you have first pick? Need is not just for equipping. How ever a player wants to use it for...is his / hers personal need. If you need a specific type of equipment people should stop complaining and play that role. That or communicate before hand and ask for it. Otherwise it's fair game. In no way shape or form is that manipulating the system. Hence why SE added the function for loot rules/ master. YOU could start your own party and set those options to greed only. Not likely people will join as fast. If you think about it, it's a type of guarantee for people to stop complaining about rng lot numbers. WE ALL PAY for the service, guidelines are given, and team communication is important. As a tank / mentor I've yet to be in a group that doesn't pass on an item that is needed by someone else if they just ask. If you see it as an expectation...well, welcome to the harsh reality.

Already covered this: because turning something in isn't restricted by class... you aren't the only person who wants to use it for turn-in purposes. By rolling need for seals/desynth, you are asserting that your want takes priority over other people's for an arbitrary reason that doesn't actually apply to what you want to use it for.

I use it mainly for CS for items to craft relics for one. Some items are needed and can only be obtain by company seals. I tried looking for your profile on loadstone, didn't see it by the way, and notice most people who are complaining either don't craft or even bother with relics. I personally see it as a need. If someone really needs something I will be more than courteous to them. As an expectation however don't think so. Here is a simple example. If like to farm tomes and gear for CS. I go as a tank because I like to have control over speed runs. If I want to make 20k in seals how many runs do you think I would need to do if I use greed vs need? It's simple a lot more. What if one run nothing but healer drops happen ? If healer already has item on inventory they won't be able to get it. Hence pass is only option. The system is fair, people who don't communicate complain. I also craft does that I mean I should only greed and keep doing runs until RNG sees it fit? Not likely. If I need it, regardless the reason, it would be up to me. Now if your farming gear for an upcoming job you plan on leveling later on...well what can I tell you start playing that role or craft.I try to farm 80k in CS in min 2 days how much time would you spend farming seals otherwise? Most won't even bother and is all based on dedication and what they want to accomplish.

I should only greed and keep doing runs until RNG sees it fit?

Yes. Because that is what is fair to everyone. We all deal with the same RNG. YOUR want for seals or whatever is not more important than other party members who also want stuff for seals/desynth/etc. Stop being selfish.

If I'm the tank and I need on something for seals, then the DPS or healer can do the same if their gear drops. Nothing unfair or selfish about it.

And if nothing for them drops? You just screwed them out of any chances whatsoever, whereas if you all greeded, you would all get an equal shot.

Same thing if nothing for tank drops. Like it or not, it's completely fair and equal. Assuming there is an equal chance for all different gear types to drop, then everyone has an equally fair chance of getting something.

Did run earlier where 90% of the drops were "of Aiming", both boss drops and chests around the dungeon map.

That's just the luck of the draw at that point if every single drop of a dungeon is tank gear.

If you really want greed only, preform and set that rule, it's an option.

Just stop...... it's just sad now
