Default Are all pickup groups expected to be "greed" rules on armor/weapons?

Basically, I don't want to run into some situation and be caught off guard. I read some posts recently and it was a little odd that something was expected to be NBG.

I could see spells being NBG...

I haven't really grouped at anything yet with any substantial loot. And despite my crappy newb gear, I don't really expect strangers to hand me loot because I haven't farmed pixels as hard as others, nor would I want to hand over for same reasons.

Depends on the worth of the item I would think. If you're in KC and an item worth 200-500pp drops; I could see most people readily agreeing to NBG. No way those same people NBG a T-staff though.

Need before greed should never be the expectation.

The only NBG groups I've been in within the last year were a few Kael runs that I and my monk buddy hosted and could have duo'd. The group runs smoother/faster with 3 or 4 total so we usually added a plate and/or silk class. We also stated clearly up front before adding or inviting.

For random pickup groups - expect to random on everything. It's simply the most fair way to handle loot.

All pickup groups are expected to be greed groups down to that gold earring that dropped from an orc pawn, unless otherwise stated up front.

Talk it over with the group when you join. The rules are whatever you all agree on.

In CB or DF orc groups I usually offer to run a rotation on belts for people interested in them. But that's a low level thing.

Clearing corpses in Oasis I picked up at of research components. Sometimes people want those and I'll just hand them over, no big deal.

Talk to the group. Good Communications are key.

NbG only applies to premade groups, if you're forming a pug the standard expected is greed roll on anything valuable. Those people are more than likely there for the pla.

Nobody actually "needs" anything in his game, so there you have it. Unless you're schnickasaurus then you need platinum or you may starve IRL
