That is THANKFULLY not true anymore, you can get the tints with the Dreamsurge/time rift general gear and throw them in the Converter.
That’s literally how it is now.
From the original blue post:
players can’t Need on a piece of loot if they’re wearing the exact piece at the exact item level , though in the event where this occurs but the dropped piece has a Tertiary stat or Socket, that roll would be possible (as those are upgrades)
no, you cannot get the LFR tints of weapons in the raid by using the converter… that is not a feature that exists.
No, I mean any piece of that TYPE (trinket, shield, legs, etc.), not the exact same piece
ah right right… Blizz get on that pleeeease
If you want the gear then I guess you ought to suck it up and earn it instead of trying to go easy route and piggybacking off someone else and taking their loot that they performed the role for.
Well, to be fair, I queue as DPS and Heals. If I happen to make it in as DPS (which does happen), I’m going to be rolling for healing loot. It makes no sense to have loot roles at all otherwise.
so you want to basically punish someone for getting higher ilvl before going into LFR?
why should someone be precluded from getting the LFR tint of mogs simply because they already geared up?
that’s not right.
the overgeared person spent time waiting in the queue, they also used their higher ilvl to help carry the group, they deserve a chance to roll need on gear for mog.
I can’t really argue against that tbh.
I’m not punishing or arguing anything.
I’m pointing out that BLIZZARD MADE A SPECIFIC ROLL FOR TRANSMOG.
Go do a dreamsurge to get your tints then, or go to the forbidden reach for vault stuff. Boundless buyable cheap tokens that you don’t have to screw anyone for and likely infinitely easier than LFR and trying to win a roll.
but the transmog roll is lower priority than need rolls… and there is ALWAYS someone who rolls need on something in LFR… so if an overgeared person was forced to only roll transmog for the LFR gear, there is ZERO chance that they ever get it.
uhhh, if they’re “overgeared” for the content isn’t that the opposite?
Then no one’s running LFR if you’re going to gate literally everyone. You do realize that some trinkets, weapons, shields, etc. are better due to stats or procs or uses, right?
Guess what? They are. They’re running the raid. This comment makes no sense.
no, u cannot get LFR tints of weapons in the raid by doing dreamsurges.
IE: getting a two handed sword from dream surges cannot be converted into ashkandur.
yes, we earned the chance to roll need on the loot by helping to down the boss (and usually the overgeared people contributed the most to the group)
No, you choosing to dps and then roll on tank/healer gear but not wanting to do those roles becuase you just can’t be bothered, so let someone else do the hard work and swoop in to try and get said loot.
Thats quite literally piggybacking.
No it cannot, but those are very few and specific cases, in which case whatever fine if thats how you wanna roll then may you forever roll 1s. Everything else? No.
Everything else? No.
everything else? yes… you are not entitled to the LFR loot simply because you didnt bother to get higher ilvl elsewhere
Oh boy you’re coming into lfr with 440 ilevel to roll on transmog while the dudes attempting to earn gear from the very limited appropriate content available to low ilevels, well screw em i guess, you gotta get those tints dude. Such a wonderful individual.
