People Rolling on Gear They Don't Even Need is a REAL problem in this game

It’s imaginary stuff in a video game. If someone else wins, good for them. I can try next week.

IMO blizz already put more than enough restrictions in and everyone should get that fair chance to win if they participated.

Obviously you disagree, but how far are you willing to commit? Should loot be auto assigned to the most needy? They obviously deserve it more going off your arguments. Would you even run with pugs knowing you’re not even getting a chance against all the fresh toons constantly cycling in?

If anything, all blizz should do is drop the greed button and make it roll or pass for simplicity.

If you don’t stand for something, you stand for nothing.

Standing for everyone getting a fair shot is fine with me.

Didn’t want to answer this one?

Key word here. Fair. The points I’ve laid out in this entire thread is about fairness. Your lack of ability to give examples of logic and reasoning goes against fairness so in total you’ve actually shown me that I’m right without even knowing it. Thank you. And if you don’t understand this I understand, it’s okay. Your cat will love you still I’m sure.

You literally want to deny others the chance at loot because you don’t think they deserve it.

Didn’t they experiment with locking people out of rolling need on stuff that wouldn’t be an item level upgrade for them? If memory serves, this worked out extremely poorly.

Everyone gets the same chance to win something if they’re eligible to roll on it. Doesn’t get more fair than that.

And you keep dodging a very easy to answer question, so maybe you’ll answer this one:

How often would you say you inspect everyone else when you win something, so that you can give it to the most needy?

What I’ll say is that I think what he did was a jerk move. Trolling someone with the prospect of something that would be beneficial only to take it away is not good.

The act of rolling need on something for transmog I don’t see an issue with. If I’m helping with something then it’s free rein on what drops. We’re already limited on rolls to our armor type and spec, I’m not gonna do charity if I am already limited.

Technically this holds true. If you have the exact item on same or higher track you can’t roll on it.

Rule doesn’t work for items without the same name or crafted items as discrepancies in stat/external effects/itemisation isn’t something that can be measured ingame.

First of all, we all agree that the guy is a jerk.
Second, maybe the guy needed to sell the weapon for gold so he can pay for repairs.

That’s how it is. Could be better? Yes.

He had a 615 crafted weapon?.. Why didn’t you make fun of that? That implies he put it up on public order and probably for a low price, which is hilarious.

I was tanking a dungeon and the last boss dropped a stam trinket i needed. The hunter rolled on it, won it, and cursed at the group and left. This was during wotlk. Not a new problem.

Your argument is based entirely in the fact that YOU didn’t get what you wanted. Was he a jerk? Yeah, but that doesn’t automatically make a system unfair. He isn’t the first person to win a roll someone else wanted and he is far from the last. Just because you wanted it doesn’t make it yours. Just because he had “better” gear doesn’t mean he can’t roll. You aren’t entitled to anything.

for the same reason you can get into a group / raid whether it’s LFR to Mythic and not carry your weight yet believe you deserve a piece of gear. EVERYONE that helped kill it, regardless of their lvl of input is allowed to roll. End of discussion. Been beaten to death already.

If you cared about power, you would have a crafted 636. The fact that you don’t, is on you.

if you really hate carrying ungeared people so much why are you using lfr/lfg? cause its faster since ungeared people fill the roster for you right?

so you need them. they dont need you. determination stacks will increase over time to let any ungeared person clear lfr. so you can kindly shove off with your horrid take.

LFR has unique appearances

LFR queues already take long enough as it is. Geared players looking for transmog not having any incentive to queue up would make it take even longer I imagine. While I don’t appreciate the behavior of the player OP described, their time doing content is just as valuable as anyone else’s. No one is entitled to gear over any other individual in WoW. You just have to move on and better luck next time.
