It has nothing to do with might makes right. Anyone who is part of the fight has a 100% fair and equal chance at anything that drops.

For starters everyone in LFR is going to roll need on loot regardless even players with a Veteran Track Staff on an offhand they won’t use. So the only chance at the LFR transmog the overgeared player has is to roll need.
Also they participated in the boss kill and are entitled to roll on the loot.

Hello cheese! I am rat. Or am I just a player playing a game and rolling need on anything I can to justify my own play time?
Regardless, I am rat. You are not cat. What I do is cheese now love me please.

Reply all you want, various repliers. Greed is not Need, and never will be. If being called out on your greed, own it.
Roll greed if that’s your intent. If you win the greed roll, then be greedy and sell away. If you rolled need with the intent to greed and sell it, that is actual entitlement: skipping the line to get yours.

I mean…isn’t he making a suggestion about it on the forums?
The logic of no one’s needs supersedes another because you all participated in the content is pretty illogical when you actually analyze it. Let the DK roll on a staff then, the priest on the axe, the rogue on the mail shoulders. Everyone can find a way to use loot if they really want to, so it might as well be entirely FFA.

Did he take part in the kill? If yes then he is allowed to roll. You all get the same chance you win some you lose some. You could aslo idk whisper him and ask for the item instead of crying on the forums. Learn some social skills talk to people. If it really is a issie join a guild and get loot allot easier.

The Need criteria is that the item be intended for your loot spec, and you not have the same item at equal or better ilvl. That was met by both people in this story.

The thought of people bickering over LFR gear is comical LOL.
Not really.

They helped kill the boss, they are free to roll on anything they can equip. Upgrades are temporary but transmog is forever.

And the person I responded to specifically stated
If you ask me in this case I think the staff vs MH/OH situation where the system lets you roll because you don’t have a better OH is a bit of an oversight because it’s basically impossible to find a way to downgrade a 675 staff to any other good MH with that crappy of OH. This means the OH is basically useless as an item to equip and if the purpose of the system is to prevent people from rolling on items they cannot use as an upgrade then it’s failed in this regard.

It’s not an oversight. It is an intentional design choice that you can roll on an item if you do not already have it at equal or better item level.

If anything, I think the person rolling for transmog has just as strong a case for the item because while the low geared player can get an upgrade from numerous sources, that transmog can only be obtained from LFR or using catalyst charges.

Agreed. Lets do that. Transmog isnt class restricted anymore, its time for an update.
Realistically what they actually should do is break transmog into its own roll category somehow so that someone can win the actual item and another can win the appearance. Stop pitting the playerbase against each other over this.
It’d be a massive QoL update for the playerbase with the only argument against it being is it theoretically reduces player retention via faster acquisition of mogs and I don’t see that as a real issue, and even if it was that’s not something I care about as a player.
Great job completely ignoring the point I made by repeating yourself. You should join a debate team, you’d go far.

Then I’m waiting until the last 10 seconds to pick whichever has the best chance of me winning based on the highest roll.
no, YOU need to fix your obsession with inspecting people who won loot to see if you think they’re worthy.
mind your own. you lost the roll, move on.
