I like to sing
better hard story than OP :c

Good news is: there are (infinitely) more white scales dropping in the future.

Don't get too bent out of shape over pixels. If you dislike how your guild handles loot there are plenty of other options.

As always, there is great wisdom sprinkled in among your posts, Master Jake of the House Rees.

I understand the frustration OP, but it’s expected. Just because you show up doesn’t mean you’re going to get a particular item, especially one that is pretty rare. Loot council guilds usually have inner cliques and the officers will hook up their friends and their alts. Solution? Join a true dkp system and bid once you have attended enough raids and built up some points.

Also you are being a moron and need to give this argument up. If I was in a casual guild who gave White Scales to a level 48 bard I would be furious. Its a waste of resources anyway you look at it. If OP was ACTUALLY AT THE POINT OF THE WHITE SCALE TURN IN it would be slightly different. As it stands a 48 Bard who has killed Vox once is not even close to needing scales and will mostly like never even reach 60
So I am right and I am wrong? got it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's true about AW/AM not having issues with loots from what I can tell. They seem to spread it around very generously. One fellow I knew who joined AW was getting loots the first week he joined. He was quite happy in the guild.

Really this is what made me realize that if you going to raid on p99, you might as well join the top tier raid guilds. The lower tier are just that, lower tier. They are equally selfish for pixels but have less to share and lesser quality of pixels on top of that.

Join AW or AM if you going to raid here. End of story.

"White scale dropped, it's a Vox raid so only low levels and people playing sub-53 shitbag bards at this exact time can roll"

Sounds pretty silly. Ven isn't wrong in this case.

Scale is worth way more time than you think. I had to kill a man in real life to get mine.

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

My favorite part about loot council guilds is when they disband and everyone who won gets to talk about how much winning they did in the open

Avoid loot council guilds like the plague.
