EVERY single one of the people who have said everyone should roll on anything because it's "fair", you people aren't the slightest bit interested in fairness. You are greedy as hell and just want to get your grasping ugly fingers on everything you can.

And that's completely demonstrated by the fact that there could be one drop the whole night and it's an awesome melee weapon and you the caster win it and walk away without a second thought. That's called greed, greed and lack of consideration for anyone other than yourselves (which is most certainly the way you treat everyone).
I totally agree

I think in a PUG that can stay together for many hours during a session, they might be able to amicably come to an agreement that greed is a perfectly "fair" way to distribute the loot. Especially if there is some sort of turn taking involved for multiple drops of the same high value items.

In most PUG's I have been in the turnover rate of it's makeup is arguably too high to make that arrangement seem "fair." I don't know how many times I've seen a new replacement join the group and win a drop within 20 minutes while that melee has been in the group for 8+ hours and can't seem to ever win that desperately needed upgrade.

The argument often times given is that "what comes around, goes around" and your RNG will perhaps be hot some other day. I think that argument might hold if you play for an infinite amount of time, but many people just don't have that many hours to put in.

NBG just has too many bad actors that go and sell that item even if they claim to need it. While Greed is at the mercy of RNG for all its faults - unequal time put in at a camp, inefficient distribution so players have to waste hours in EC tunnel trying to sell items they don't need to get items they do need.

PUG's just have a tougher time in most aspects of the whole game, and loot distribution is just another example.

Using simple logic doesn't equate to being mad lmao.

That's why prefaced the thread with that because I knew there would be at least one literal retard who would say it.

Best policy I've found with PUGs is to just do greed rolls and you decide as a player to go with need and give your winning roll to someone in the group you feel is worthy of the upgrade. Fairest distribution I can come up with.

Helps you earn friends and build a reputation as well.

LOL I remember reading the same. I think he's trying to ignore it, but Hazek/Nordak went on a holy rolling tirade and said he'd deleted his characters cause, I think, his deity willed it.

I post again for posterity's sake. Hazek/Nordak's amazing thread:

Nah I wasn't mad. I just felt bad from a couple mispulls and getting my group killed so I deleted because its easy for me. But I saw it for the blessing that it was, thank God.

And I still enjoy the game so I rerolled to join a guild with highly intelligent members who have fun playing characters that represent that. The resonance enticed me.

But i'll have to uninstall again eventually because its beyond stupid to play this game for more than a second than I already have. I'm just doing it anyway. May God help us and forgive us.

Umm...I read that thread in full. You were definitely mad. You can say what you want now, but the ink is dry on that thread and a few thousand people have read your words. Just as you say you can conjure up an image of a person based on the "character he chooses and how they move in-game", we can do the same for your mood based on the words and inflection you use.

But besides that point, if it's beyond stupid to play the game then why do it? Or am I opening up a can of worms by trying to engage you in discourse?
