They also need to make it undisenchantable/unvendorable if Need rolled.

But truth is, you wouldn't want to pug ZA/ZG anyway.

That's a great change. Keeps people from taking BOE items just to sell.



Here is what I see happening.

person 1-4 roll /greed
person 5 rolls /need (whether he needs it or not) and /leaves the group. /vendors it.

Because people are just mean that way



If they needed it, why didn't they roll need?


Kinda like frost orbs used to be...everyone just rolled need, to keep from being shafted by the last person...(before they changed it, of course)

They really need to learn from other games.


While it would be somewhat tricky on some item, some items you just plain can't use the item, you, duh, don't get the need option.


Pretty simple, items are specifically made for certain classes or builds.


Other game(s) are already doing this.


Somewhat okay change, it will help the 'honest' people who 'need' it for an alt, but greedy people will just sell it faster than before but for less coin. It's still plus coin for them, no effort.

If people will seriously ninja-Need on an item to make 5-20g, they are retarded. Let them do it and leave, they were probably only doing 3-4k DPS anyways,

Mage in my former guild used to do that on that one cloth epic that dropped all the time. Hell, I think he sold four or five of them

This won't change anything, people will just need roll and vendor it.

They need to lock out gear rolls given a person's current spec. But addressing the root of the problem isn't a strong suit of the B-Team.

Ya know, now that I think about it, that wouldn't be such a bad solution. It's not like you can't trade the item to someone else if they ask nicely.
