If you could give any item you loot, you could then be bullied to give any loot to other members of the group, which completely undoes the removal of the master loot feature. It is because they cant ask you for that loot, that the system is working.
Blizzard should make us pay taxes every year.
Have you ever watched one of the in game cut scenes and/or listened to or read the dialogue the characters are vomiting out? No, they do not view their playerbase as adults.
But this still happens. It happens less but it still happens. When I have a trinket at item level 465 and get a better trinket at the same item level people are still whispering me asking me to give it up. The system as it stands is a bandaid and does not prevent all loot whispers as hoped. It prevents maybe 15% of them but once we start going for min/maxing I still find myself telling people No I want this piece or I need this piece.
I think giving the player the option and freedom to make the decision is the way to go. It makes the social interactions more than just doing things together but being able to depend on each other in loot situations. Its an additional layer of bad luck protection.
Idk if I am making sense. Hope it makes sense to you
I’d be so down for removing that stupid restriction
It feels dumb when you can give your homie a bit of loot that’s 5 ilvls higher than your current socketed bis corruption pair of pants with leech on them even though you’re going to just DE it
