Can someone make an addon to auto-blacklist theses guys and hidde their messages in General/LFG/World chat ? My blacklist is now full of theses retards.
My current workaround is to join all theses group and ninja all items when something drop. Then, they kick me and they do the dungeon at 4 so they lost time.
Yeah 1 orb for tank and then the rest round robin is the core rules. But now, selfish people think they are god and they can get what they want (sellable items, all orbs, all patterns) because they think they can get profit of later guys that doesn’t have all Pre-raid BiS .
I have absolutely no problem with tank that try to make a living by selling orbs to pay repair bill, especially when they need absolutely nothing in the dungeon and they do that only for orbs reason and/or to help a friend.
My problem is with selfish people that think they can get :
ALL orbs (instead of 1 or 2 per run).
ALL BoE sellable items (green and blue).
ALL Patterns that is sellable on auction house, even if someone need it.
It was not a problem since the start of Classic, but now, the “reservation” thing is spreading very fast and people copy each others. Every Strat Live is about that now.
You are free to choose to join or not. Either people are willing to join them, in which case clearly you have a minority opinion, or nobody wants to join them in which case the guy running them is just wasting his own time.
Why does it piss you off so much that people tell you the loot rules of their own groups that you have to go around and attempt to blacklist these people? Just dont join?
I really cant understand why this forum is filled people that feel so strongly that they are entitled to join every group in existence and get an equal share of the loot. I really dont.
Sure, you can do nothing and don’t join them and let the plague spread so all Rogue and Warrior DPS can’t make Crusader Enchant and they will have to pay the tribute on Auction House or do the same stupid thing.
Or you can join them, need on all items/all orbs like they do.
Your logic on how to deal on people reserving items is one of the most idiotic things i have read recently. Its ok to black list them, its ok to not join their groups, but the fact that you are going out of your way to join and “ninja”, the item that they reserved is you just being a c@nt, who believes that you are some kind of vigilante. You are even worse than the people who reserved all the orbs and shlt.
On one hand I hate it On the other hand, if it means that there are more tanks available to farm gold and people can get their bis and quest items, maybe it’s a good thing.
I will never join a group who goes with “Tank takes the first orb, and then is round robin”. So what he’s a tank? I can care less and I would rather wait a bit more for a decent group then to join one like that.
Maybe i’m wrong, but Warrior Tank doesn’t need any single item in Strat Live. There’s no BIS item for Warrior Tank in this dungeon.
So, to appeal tank to go in this place, they had to “won” something. Because this dungeon contain BiS items for caster (and probably other class), and orbs that are needed by Warrior DPS and Rogue to craft Crusader Enchant.
So, how can you appeal tank to go there when they will juste waste time in this place ? Orbs ! Because orbs resell for high price.
This is not a big deal to give 1 orb to the tank and then, round robin roll for the rest of orbs that drop so everyone have a chance to get a orb to and everyone is happy.
But the problem is, in Classic, there’s selfish guy that think they can reserve ALL orbs that drop in the dungeon for them. This is not acceptable, so we don’t join let them forming 2 hours group, or we just troll them by ninja looting everything. This behavior spread since 1 week very fast, now 90% of Strat Live group in Shazzrah reserve all orbs.
And now, we have healer. Healer doesn’t understand why they can’t get an advantage because they are healer, so they will ask to get “All the green, and blue that are not needed” or they don’t come, so they can resell it and get golds.
It’s their group, so they can decide what to do with it. As long as it is clear up front to anyone joining.
I wouldn’t join them though, goes against my idea of the game.
I did one time comment on it. With a few others we had a bit of fun with a group like that on trade chat. But that was more because it was 4 at night and we were having a bit of banter to counter the silent grind. Nothing offensive/over the top though.
I completely agree. I don’t mind tanks getting the first (and possibly only) Orb in Strat Live as “payment” for their services, especially PuG-tanks, because why else would they join in the first place? Other than orbs, there’s nothing for them in that place, other than repairbills…
Can’t you just make some deal with them that in the dungeon you reserve some piece of loot you need so it doesn’t matter if you get some trash or not?
They want some mats and you want a quest or some piece or tier set etc and just guarantee some loot for yourself and gg
if they won’t give you any loot at all, then just ignore them and let the guild / server know to not play with them either
