I'm sorry but if were talking about any item above like 2k NBG is f-ing retarded, specially on spells like torpor and coh and rare drops in seb specifically. I wouldn't want to group with someone who wants to give away an 80k cloak or 20k spell just because he's in the right spot at the right time. The FAIR way to do it is to greed random. but thats if you want to talk about fairness

Heh, I've never once seen anyone with this attitude in game...

Edit: Actually I did at one point - His name was Gmuk

he's right though, sorry. if you're in a group of random ass people, you're an idiot to give away an 80k item. what loyalty do you have to that person? if he's a guildie, sure, why not?

I'm right though, sorry. He said letting people need any item above 2000p is retarded and the only person I've seen who wouldn't let someone loot a 2000p item that they were going to wear was Gmuk.

2. ) Hasbinbad and Bisch are probably the 2 quickest-on-the-corpse people i've ever grouped with. I swear they must be manually plugged in to Rogeans server and live in his basement. I've seen loot messages before xp messages. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The way that I see how loot works is this. Every class needs every item that drops weather they can use it or not. If you can't wear it you can sell it to make the cash that you would need to buy something that you can use. So yes everyone NEEDS every item so they can BUY what they NEED.

any item of value will nearly always be greed rolls. as far as general vendor trash loot is concerned most people in the high end dont give a care in the world. even items like "helm of rile", which may be usefull to someone are usually just vendord, people (in the high end) here are only after BIS items.

NBG is pointless in a group of strangers. And on top of that, you simply can't trust people. If a fungi tunic drops and it instantly goes to the monk in the group because he's the one that can make the most use of it, you're killing everyone else's chances of getting something nice. As a caster if I ever reach level 60, what incentive would I ever have to join a spore king group? Risky, takes a long time, and no chance of getting anything at all? No thanks. I've met people in WoW with this mentality, who greeded on everything, including the stuff that can only be vendored. Sounds bad at first, but in a game full of a-holes, you simply can't move ahead unless you become an a-hole too. Random is fair. Cant argue with fair.

Personally, I would go with NBG always, unless the group majority disagrees up front. Granted, somebody could lie, but if they get caught in that lie word should be spread. Of course, the group leader decides what need means, unless the group majority over-rules him.

That's the old school way to do things IMO. But hey, its just my opinion.
