"I was in Forge of Souls and this Needle-Encrusted Scorpion drops. I select need as I am DPS and right after the tank who is a paladin selects need also and wins."
I tell him, why are you rolling on that to begin with? For crit or ArP (which is from what I understand a stat not worth investing in as I have a retri paladin myself) but he insists its an upgrade but he clearly nowhere said he was going to roll on that when we entered the instance.
My philosophy has been main spec > off-spec.
Now here's where people respond: "It's WOW, move on or it drop tomorrow, etc."
I have ran with guilds, with people I know, and pugged and it has never dropped over the past 45 runs I have done and when it finally does which happens to be a pug its taken by someone who does not need it.
There was a shaman healer with us who expressed if she could roll on it when it dropped and for that I was perfectly fine with it as she asked -- what I was not happy about was the Paladin tank who told me to chill.
I don't get the whole stance on ninja looting or the whole loot system but I'm curious to ask, should then ninja looting not be seen in a negative light? I say this because nothing is penalizing he or she and they continue this behavior without punishment. This could be anyone, from guilds, pugging, or someone you think you know but find out they are not who they are.
I am tired of running dungeons and finding people taking stuff they don't need whether its me wanting the item or someone that I know or don't know.
I watched a Hunter select need on Tyrannical Beheader over a Death Knight. I honestly do not understand the policy Blizzard runs here and sorry to sound like a QQer but when you've played this game since 2005 and while its not since 2004, I think you begin to hate crap like this when it happens.
If people can ninja loot or whatever and not punished, then why can't I go out and buy gold or something of that lines? I mean, ninja looting ain't hurting nobody -- why should buying gold or something like that hurt anybody too?
I'm frustrated when justice is not served and quite honestly I don't understand why behavior like for instance a tank gets angry and decides to pull a bunch of mobs and then leave and thus wipping the whole group gets away with all that and continues to enjoy the game without penalty.
Please do explain all this. I am totally out of sync with how the game policy and how the behaviors in-game are setup.
