Why is the loot system so bad?

[Taika]

Thank you, Jinko, for explaining the system!

It's kind of similar to the loot pool and /random in that the item drops is put in a suspended loot pool, a pop up box appears on the screen with the words (need) (greed) and (pass) the players chooses one of those and it rolls a random number.

So you can loot on all the items? And choose "need" for all those items, if you have the classes and levels they require? So, in theory, one person could get all items from the loot pool?

In any case, this doesn't sound like a bad system for pickup groups, at least. But I do hope we'll get a master loot system of some kind for linkshell groups with their own loot point systems.
