I'm sorry you can't follow logic. What does it matter that he's in 300k armor? What does it matter that he wants to roll on a 5k item or a 150p item? He's part of the group same as you, if he wants something that you want, just roll on it. Shaming someone out of loot is kind of dickish. Everyone's playing the same game. Nobody "needs" anything more than the next guy.

I'm sorry you seem unable to defend a point of view without being passive-aggressive.

Adding 150 plat to your net worth doesn't have the same importance to the guy who can afford walking around with 300k worth of gear on them than to the guy running around in bronze or banded armor because it is their first character and they are noob.

If you fail to understand that, you are, unfortunately, not qualified to continue arguing with me.


TLDR: be nice to the noobs and some day they may remember that and help you back.

It's not about net worth, it's about utility. When you have 300k in gear but no plat in the bank for ports sow pots or any other expendables you may have, you'll understand. Telling everyone with better gear than you that they should go farm their plat (while still welcoming their service in the group) is just as dickish as someone who loots every gem before the mob hits the ground.

Besides, you've mistaken me, I am not saying 300k guy deserves loot more or less, I'm saying I don't fault one for wanting to roll on something. If he's being a loot whore, of course put the screws to him just like anyone else who's being a loot whore in a group. But assuming he can't use a 150p item as much as anyone else is idiotic.
