Need Before Greed is just its own form of greed.
It eliminates the competition of other rollers and essentially guarantee the item drop is yours.
While the item may be an upgrade for you, even if the slot is occupied by cloth, you do not deserve 100% merit of the item, unless you killed the mob by yourself, while solo.
Any item, example a caster item, can be an upgrade for a melee character. Every item has value, and thus can be sold or exchanged for an upgrade for that melee player.
Vise Versa for that caster player too.
Every member of that group put in some kind of effort that resulted in the item drop.
Therefore every member should have the same chance at the item that drops.
The fact that you can equip the item immediately is a moot point. Everyone in your group is there for the same reason, to gain xp and hopefully improve their gear.
Groups should roll on every item that drops. So many people have forgotten, that you are entitled to Nothing.
A player who calls NBG on an item, is exercising a form of underhanded greed.
We all want gear, whether it be the item that we can immediately equip, or sell/trade for another item that we can use.
You are not special because you are currently wearing cloth.
Any group I've had the misfortune of joining that called NBG, I left.
I am here to play a game with you, I am not here to twink you.
