Need, Greed, Pass....what?

I'm not sure if you know this or not, so forgive me if I'm wasting your time. I noticed you said that you hadn't had time to read the loot tutorial when it popped up bc your party was running headlong over to the next mob. You can read those tutorials at your leisure whenever you want to. They're part of the Active Help system. Once a tutorial topic has been shown, it'll be listed in Active Help and you can go back and re-read anything you missed when it first popped up.

My Biggest Issue is that it doesn't let LNC/DRG 'Need' on the Aetherial Scale (iron-scale, Steel-scale, etc) (TNK-DEF) Armors despite listing them as equipment for LNC/DRG.

Thats because it isnt completely based off class, its also based on needed stats. When you join a party, it fills the top bar with the stats that class typically needs. If an item is usable by that class and provides those stats can be Needed by the character.

Like a Shield that gives Int/Mnd can be Needed by a THM, but not a GLD, even though a GLD can use it.

Right, and these give STR & VIT in equal proportions. DRG/LNC Register under STR in the Stat. When I ran Sunken City, I encountered my first ever Tank and Healer that Greeded everything instead of 'Needing' their stuff.

I wouldn't say its a move back to sony, seeing as how frontier is 7 years old, lol. But yeah, my 6 year old niece can take down a jinouga, which should never happen.


I might make a character on coeurl, or wait to transfer one there. are the unity players there some of the older ones like chump, tifa, moropa, etc, or is it all newer people that i wouldn't know as i left unity like 2 years ago?

Hm, then Im not really sure. Havent done the melee classes much, so I havent ever looked at when Need could be done for them (mostly since I have sets of armor from doing Greed on the other classes)
