master looting works well, if you can get someone who can keep
up...I've learned to like it best, as I tend to be a slow looter and in FFA that
usually means getting left out...I usually decline to be ML tho, as I have too
hard a time keeping up

Subject: [EverQuest] About loot
order
Recently in some of the groups I've been in, we've had a
few problems with
loot order. Often, the tanks will insist on FFA. But
since I play the main
healer and am expected to sit and med (only getting
up to heal) I get
totally screwed. I never get loot. But then when we try
to establish alpha
loot some people complain. They don't care about the
casters. All they care
about is getting loot for themselves. These people
partake in
"ninja-looting". They loot everything really fast so nobody else
gets a
chance. And even when we establish a regular loot order some people
will
still loot out of turn.
And then we have times when people say we
roll for certain types of loot.
When I first joined a group, this one guy
told me it was ffa (and he was a
ninja-looter) but that "bronze" and ore
were rolled for. I saw that he
picked up an FS morning star and wanted to
roll for it (bc it's an expensive
item). He said no, it was only for
bronze, not FS. So later he picked up a
bronze weapon. I said, "ok, let's
roll for it". He said, "no, that's only
for bronze armor"...
Has anyone
else had this problem?
What do you think is the best and fairest loot
order?
Just wondering.
luv,
-Su
ps. alpha loot with 3 loots per
turn (per person) works pretty well when
people
cooperate.
