LFR should be on Personal Loot

As it has been stated by many people, LFR should be on personal loot. There are too many people that are blindly needing on items they don’t actually need and ruining it for people that are trying to get gear for actually gearing up. Even when you ask some of these people if they are willing to trade you the item since they don’t need it, they ask for gold in return. This is absolutely ridiculous. Personal loot in LFR would solve all these problems.

No it shouldnt.

Its an inferior system and removed for good reason.

Agreed.

Too many ninjas rolling need for transmog, when people need those items as upgrades.

This, and I’ve only ever won an item by rolling for transmog exactly 1 time. It would be nice to actually have a chance to get transmog unlocked in LFR by just getting it through personal loot and other people can still have a chance to get upgrades through personal loot, too.

It’s a win/win.

It’s a way better system for lfr. Let the computer roll rather than icky humans. No one gets to complain then.

You realise the computers roll on behalf of those humans right?
So the “icky humans” rolling need on “”““your””“” loot would still be getting loot you need.

personal loot gave max 1 item from a boss if you won, while roll for loot allows people to roll on multiple items and can win multiple items off a boss. totally crap

Ok but the positive to that same system is someone who needs loot can win multiple pieces. It cancels itself out.

Its impossible to ninja in the current loot system. Stop spreading lies.

Again, Blizzard has been clear on this:

If you are eligible to roll, its not ninja looting.

The computer is neutral though. It rolls on behalf of everyone. The all too common scenario of someone rolling need when they just want an appearance, or even just the gold from vendoring, regardless of whether someone might need an item as an actual upgrade is a real thing that happens. And it just makes the entire experience of lfr feel combative and hostile with the very people you just worked with to take down the boss. Personal loot is better just for the sake of keeping the whole lfr experience friendlier.

LFR doesnt get special treatment

LFR isn’t the same as an organised raid. A different loot system isn’t special treatment. It’s just acknowledging the reality of those differences.

I think the biggest problem is the fact that the system doesn’t check the player’s items to remove that need option… but expecting players to be decent to one another is like asking them to climb mount everest without gear or guide, during the winter months.

Its still a raid.

Raiding uses Need before greed not personal loot. Personal loot was removed from raids for a very good r eason.

Only people advocating for group loot have zero understanding of how either system works.

PL is literally everyone rolling need
Group is not everyone rolling need

This isnt a hard concept.

The system does in fact check and will not let people roll if they have the same item at a higher ilvl
