MadMage Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Why has no one else complained about this already? Holy god, an auction system? NO. There isn't even the OPTION to make the system randomized loot roll based. What in the hell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devhyn Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Threads pop up with people complaining about the bidding loot system every day multiple times. Some people like it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xCookieMonster Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 The bidding system is probably the best looting system I've seen in an MMO, tbh. I make so much money from it. I'd be poor as hell if it wasn't for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadeswilla Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 You prefer rng roll over a guaranteed bid win system o_0 The money bid is distributed among the players from what i heard so even if you suck at making it you can just let ppl bid till you make enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamabushi Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 It would be a great system if it wasn't for the existence of gold sellers. Yes the coin is distributed, but in the era of instant gratification it only sends the message "Deepest pockets wins every time." Also, it's really easy to troll if you know someone needs an item. But all that really only applies to pugs unless you are in a really crappy clan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitzu Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 the loot system, YES! But here is the thing, even if they win and have the deepest pockets, the next time you run YOU get that persons cash and you will likely be able to buy the shit you want anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2501 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I find it especially hilarious since some people don't even know there is an auction, or how to operate it, so they lose out and don't bid at all on items ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drremorre Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I don't have much of a problem with the auction but I would much prefer if every got RNG loot drops instead of it going to the person with the most cash. Like in Vindictictus at least RNG there is RNG for everyone instead of just the person who can afford it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vindictus RNG is complete ass, and Revolves around how much cash your willing to throw at it, the entire system is based on rng. I can tell you this since i've played since beta. I really hope to god your not serious. -With Regard ToxicDecay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just what I prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PsychoticFlamez Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Well I can tell you this, This system eliminates a 2 step process and puts you the as the Bidder or the seller, the outcome is in your hands, and how much they are willing to spend, not only this but the entire party benefits from it if they bid. System is pretty thorough, and Yes it can be abused but i haven't seen that yet. In the end it comes down to morals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
