Teddie, you'd also be in a guild group, so you'd see the benefit of that pipe later. If I'm with random_player_05, who says I'll ever see them again and see the benefit of that pipe again?
Also, as a bard, gear is largely irrelevant, besides resists and a drum. Am I supposed to pass on all haste items in groups because a rogue or monk doesn't have one yet? What happens when that rogue turns L2 and obtains his ragebringer? All of a sudden he gets to sell a 25k RBG because he "needed" it, and I'm left broke. That's bullshit when I'm very likely to be the bard that pulled the mob that dropped the RBG. And the bard that played slow song to keep the mob from stomping the group, and the bard that played haste to allow the rogue to kill it faster. I've "earned" that RBG as much as that rogue, if not more because I'm definitely working harder in my group role. Tapping backstab is so hard bros.
