Step outside yourself for a moment, then. Let's play a little bit of pretend, and that's something we should all be good at since we're all playing an mmo.

Let's pretend you aren't you, gearing up multiple classes. Let's pretend you are a new player, fresh out of the gates, working on your very first job so that you can finally start to do some end game content with the new friends you just made in your Free Company. You're excited to see some of the most epic boss battles ever made, and you're doing everything you can to get your ilvl high enough to get there.

You head into the 24 man raid because there's a piece in there that can help you reach that goal and it's content designed to help you gear for the harder raids. You go in, you execute all the mechanics perfectly, and that piece you want, that you really, really want, finally drops.

You don't get to have priority on that roll, because someone like you, the real you, not the pretend you in this scenario, is 'gearing multiple classes' and somehow, playing the job that you want to gear has become... what's the word I'm looking for, frowned upon?

Like, when did we start acting like it's a bad thing to play the job you want to get gear on? Nothing about this whole topic (and many others) makes any sense to me. I guess just caring about the good of the entire playerbase is not the way this game is designed.
