The case of not getting kicked for needing on transmog when the mob decides you didn’t actually need what you rolled need on, because psychologically, you needing on the Group’s loot is very different than the game giving you some Personal loot.
There’s no reason to have GL in LFR. People will just hit need on everything and it’ll be Dragonsoul all over again.
oof big no. Azerite armor at the start had HUUUUUUUUUGE issues, to the point where upgrading to a higher ilvl piece could be a huge downgrade simply just because either it didn’t have the right traits, or you couldn’t activate the traits at all because your Heart wasn’t leveled enough.
And removing flying wouldn’t be so bad, if the content was designed around ground mounts or if Blizz would finally introduce a faster ground mount. 100% speed on the ground is terrible, should up it to 500% by now.
Or at least split the difference at 250 or add in a stamina meter or something for mounts, I.E. can go 100% with no drain, but beyond that, you wear your mount out to the point it needs a rest or it slows down to walking speed. I’d even take it so you have to change mounts at some point to keep going fast, might wind up increasing how many mounts get used.
Or blizz could give engineers a new item to craft and sell, something like a turbo/supercharger/jetpack for mount equipment. Increases speed, or allows ground only mounts to fly etc etc.
It’s going to be really no different than personal loot as far as overall ‘loot drama’ is concerned. Players are still going to get whispers as to whether they ‘need’ something. The difference really is that if a player doesn’t need an item, they can greed or pass on it rather than have to ask the raid if anyone needs it, then get people to /roll for it etc etc.
That is exactly the same arguiment that the anti-ML crowd was using. I was in the group and had tagged the boss, so I deserve the same shot at loot as everyone else. GL still allows that. So why is rolling need after an item drops any different than the game rolling need for you when it drops?
Yeah and it’s a dumb argument. It was then and it is now.
The difference ? I thought it was dumb both times, now you switched because you’re vindictive about “hate” you “received”.
People won’t see it that way. They’ll berate you in chat for needing on a staff 13 ilvls lower than what you have just because you wanted the transmog because you took it from someone who had a Green BoE.
Andy why is a player who needs an item for transmog’s roll worth any less than a player who needs an item for stats in LFR, where the ilvl is garbage anyways?
No it definitely happens. Especially late into the tier where the unlucky ones who still haven’t gotten loot or just need that ONE last piece will spam EVERYONE non-stop until /ignored.
