Grouping and Loot

edited June 2013 in General Discussion (PC)
I am not a hard-core player any longer, but did get 4 alts built up to 15 and my main to 60.

I had not group up until tonight. I will say it needs work.

Getting into a group... This is nutz
  • Zone chat is awful to form by
  • Queues are not that great
  • Cant form a public LFM


Loot... WTF!
  • I have a hundred popup windows, need, greed or pass. Why not just have everyone get their own loot random wise. Like in the open areas. Skip this, it is annoying.
  • Final chest!... a big WTF! One item drops, period... with 5 players?

If this is grouping... long term. I will tweak my alts to solo this stuff.

No disrespect to anyone here, but the grouping and loot system is awful. I don't see the point in involving others when trying to acquire loot and the mess in trying to group.

Nothing short of getting guilded.

    Thanks for advertising your ignorance for the forums to see.

    1) Zone chat is excellent to form groups by & groups formed through zone chat tends to have a higher success rate than pug groups.
    2) Queues are fine, usually takes me less than 5 minutes to get into a dungeon....and me am a TR.
    3) Sounds like a personal problem.
    4) So that people can choose to need, greed, or pass & having random loot filling up my inventory with me having no say would be extremely annoying. Just like how the current dungeon "trade in" things like the ember shards & ashes do...
    5) You narb, it's an item per person. Everyone gets their own chest.

    #5 clearly tells me that you has had virtually no communication with your group(s).
    #4 tells me that you are new to MMOs.
    #3 & #1 tells me that your communication skills are lacking.
    #2 tells me that you've either chosen a slow time to queue or was simply unlucky. (I'm going with unlucky as you apparently managed to queue for a delve to get the chest. Try queuing around the time of a dungeon delve.

    Have a good day.

    I know that it sucks to no longer get gear to sell from the Dungeon Delve chest but it was truly overpowered.

    Agreed ... since already class bound why dont you make it auto-roll Need if class and greed if non-class the interface is so much annoying, especially if somebody start looting like crazy in the middle of battle, OR at least cannot loot while in battle like opening chests

    Because some people like myself don't like to be an HAMSTER & will greed/pass on items such as necklaces, rings, and class specifics so that the others may have a chance to vendor it rather than Needing on all possible items I could roll Need. (My TR already has a T2 set & the 2nd to best dagger in game.)
