No, You May Not Roll on Items for Another Class and Strip Out the Mods

Then you do the same thing they would do if you won the gear and they did not - run the FP again.

Then why roll need when others with an equal need dont?

Actually I would like get rid of this orange gear. Doesn't look good for tank but I have to keep it because can't get any better.

That part where you pretend that your stance is anything about other than "hey I wanted that, it should be mine without a roll"

I'm fine if you want to take that stance, you should jsut be honest with yourself.

No, that's not true at all.

For one: you've not seen any of my actions, so you are in no position to judge whether my actions belie my motives.

I want there to be equality and fairness. You want to skew things toward what you want over what other people want. I think your position is inherently self centered, and the martyr card you guys keep playing is absurd.

What has any of that got to do with the discussion?

You make it quite clear with the words you use that you believe that your method is the morally and ethically superior method.

You use words like respect and courtesy to describe your way, but terms like disrespect and selfish to describe mine. Even though I at best will have a equal chance at winning an item I will use as anyone else who rolls need/greed.

I will if everyone else rolled Greed state I'm going to roll Need if I want the item for a companion, and why, if people have an issue with this, depending on how the group is going otherwise, I will either select greed and take my chance or perhaps quit the group if it has been going badly. In fact I'll likely state that up front before the group starts.

I will not pass/greed an item I can use as an upgrade just because someone else selected Need, regardless of why they did it.

I will not feel I'm somehow cheating someone out of something if I win the roll.

Because I need it, of course.

If they needed it too, they should have rolled Need.

I did not take away their equal chance to win an item they need - they removed their own equal chance to win by personally choosing to not roll Need on an item they needed.

What others do is irrelevant. If someone has a need for an item in shape or form for any reason, they should roll need. If they roll something else, they lost by their own actions.

If they don't, then obviously they don't have an equal need.

I can't control anything but my actions; I pick the roll that matches my desire for the item and expect them to do the same.

I'm sorry, I'm declaring a troll.

I just looked at the AH - at least on my server, there's a full collection of level 47+ mods, running around 8K or so each. You could easily upgrade everything in those orange pieces for what at level 50 is a trivial amount of cash and effort.

So you're either a simple troll, or so clueless that you really can't contribute anything to the conversation.
