Forced Greed Rolling in LFR

I get that they’re trying to let lower geared players get their take, it is what it is, but why are classes that cannot use a tier token (or any item for that matter) able to Greed roll on it?? Just enables more griefers man…

What are you talking about?

If you can need it, you can use it. If you can’t need it, your (insert non-need-use-case-here) is the same value as my (insert non-need-use-case-here).

Why does this feel like a deja vu thread? I swear there was a similar post a month ago over the same issue or something similar.

Idk why I expected anyone reasonable to be on here. I just want to be able to get my transmog man but these blanket greed rollers are taking loot from people who can actually transmog it.

I didn’t know why either. You really shouldn’t.

Anyway, the logic is that you wanting it for any reason other than need is the same to Blizzard as someone else wanting it for any reason at all. It’s basically a “I’ll take it if no one else wants it” button.

BTW, someone said the same above in less words.

So is the best way to collect the LFR transmog set to put your higher ilvl stuff in void storage and equip the crafted pvp set or something?

So why does your greed trump everyone elses?

In LFR if the need button is lit up you push it 100% of the time. Everyone else does so you have to too.

I guess the idea is that someone who could at least use the appearance would get something more from an item than someone who can only vendor/disenchant it.

That said, a better solution would be to add a vendor that trades cosmetic versions of LFR gear for the Relic Vaults we keep looting, because their current use as tokens for 30 reputation seems like kind of a waste considering each one is effectively the same as touching dirt twice.

Yeah unfortunately a need or greed system doesn’t take into account things that your friends would when deciding on loot. I don’t want to use it but it looks really cool so I would like to tmog it isn’t really a consideration.

I have isolated the wrong-thinking part. Get that part out of your head and you will be MUCH happier. Nobody is taking anything away from you. Stop thinking that way so you can stop feeling that way. Envy is hurting you.

Tell me you have no idea how this loot system works without saying that…

It’s all relative…

“I guess the idea is that someone who could at least vendor/disenchant would get something more from an item than someone who can only it use the appearance.”

Just roll need and be done with it.

If unlocking the mog consumed the item, maybe.

It’s not what it ain’t.

In the case of tier tokens, its not.

The token has no vendor value and if you cannot ‘use’ the token you cannot convert it to a piece of gear for vendor or disenchant.

The current system allows people who can only /delete the token to roll against players who actually have a use for it

‘Maybe’ is your value judgment… there are plenty of players (i’m not one, prefer the mog) that value the gold or materials way more than the appearance. They’re not wrong, they’re just not you.

The difference still being that the mog can only come from the specific LFR encounters, while you can trip over 60-150g by doing anything in the game for a minute.

Like I said, they should make the relics useful and be tradeable for LFR appearances, then we’d go back to Greed roll having literally one purpose and nobody would make these threads.
