Please, Don't Roll on Items for Another Class in Your Team

You forgot my companions..

It's not.

You have not given any way to tell what actually validates a need.

I listed some possible reasons why someone may want to have something. Just because you want something does not automatically mean you actually need it.

Need roll is for when you want an item and have a valid reason to need it
Greed roll is for when you want an item but don't have a valid reason to need it

Now for every reason I can think of to want an item, I can always make up some excuse why it improves my gameplay so that I actually need it for a valid reasons.

Still at the same time, I can also, for all of those reasons, make up some excuse why I really don't need it, because I can still go on without it.

Without better definitions, everything can be seen as a valid reason or nothing can be seen as a valid reason just as well, and there is no way to tell the difference.

So unless you can clearly define what validates a need, saying "Validity of the need is actually the real answer" does not answer anything at all.



Translation: "I don't know how to define need and greed, so I'm just going to pretend that I have answer for it, and that I just don't need to define it"

Wow... I mean, just... wow. You see, unlike you, I don't quote just a part of someone's post out of context unless there's only one part of their post I'm responding to, and even then, I keep the context.

You made a statement that I believed it was fine to roll Need on anything at any time, and I laid out the actual situations in which I rolled Need, which certainly wasn't "on anything at any time". I really think you need to work on either your short-term memory (which shouldn't be necessary since the posts are there for you to refer to) or your reading comprehension, because you're completely stepping all over yourself in an ongoing attempt to discredit me.

An ongoing attempt that's miserably failing, likewise.

Or my credits. Or my mods. Or my alts. Or any other reason I can think of.

Right?

I don't need to discredit you. You have made it clear what type of player you are, and people can choose to group with you or not.

I am simply disagreeing with your perspective.

P.S.
The default option of the "Quote" option on these forums doesn't quote quotes within quotes. Quit crying about "context".

If you should not roll need for companions because you will not be using them in group content, does that mean that someone who is planning to solo after the FP should not roll need on anything at all, even for themselves, because it is not needed for solo content?

If the companion is in the run they have the same rights as anyone else. If they're not there they have no rights to anything there.

Nor have I seen one post by someone saying they'd roll need on an item they didn't need.
