Leapslams animation is a second long about. I tank using leapslam. Loot drops with my name on it and by the time leapslam is finished tons of vultures crowd the item and pick it up. I have a 0.5 to 0.1 second reaction time. I miss out on 90% of my loot because im leapslam tanking for the party. Why am I doing this????? I guess Ill just keep soloing the damn game wishing I could get some of those fat party exp and loots like all the other ninjas that just kick back with their 5 second timers from range. Them running all about during combat focusing on loot while little ol' me trucks on tanking for the party and getting jack shit the rare times I do party.

How am I, someone who supports the current system, and preferred the Diablo 2 system of COMPLETE 100% Free for all, a carebear in this sense? You're utterly retarded. You're a part of the crowd that says, "THAT ITEM HAD MY NAME ON IT FOR 1 SECOND, ITS MINE". No, it's not yours, because it's not in your bag. If anything, GGG should just take names off of items.

Keep the timers so everyone has "an equal shot" at picking it up. And no one has the entitlement. You have the same opportunity to snag that rare as soon as the timer expires.

This is a free-to-play game. It's repulsive that people download a FREE TO PLAY game, and with no monetary incentive on their end, attempt to CHANGE CORE ASPECTS of the game. Who in the fuck are you to suggest they change anything if you're not willing to put your money down?.

THEIR game. NOT yours.

Just like the other guy, your reading comprehension is disgusting. Nauseating, even. I simply listed a game that was released in the Golden Age of the NES. Back when, you know, you had to rent video games and not pirate them, or as we have it here, DOWNLOAD IT FOR FREE, LEGALLY.

I'm not going to get into my gaming accolades, that's a cock measuring contest that I'm not interested in having with you. I know what I've done, I know my experience in difficult gaming.

And stop putting words in my mouth. No where have I ever tried to make GGG "cater" to me, nor have I called this game "hardcore". I don't have one fucking problem with people taking loot of mine that had "SDKAYLOR" on it for 1 second, why the fuck do you? Why are you so entitled?

I'm playing a dagger + maul + shield (on 2nd weapons tab) geared witch so I can abuse all the mobility skills in the game to ninja your loot. WHat's you gonna do ?

That's when I join public parties. But I usually don't cause I don't like FFA. I have my own pritave party, me and a friend with 3 characters each farming for orbs non stop. So, gtfo

And as I said in another thread, I don't like instanced either. That doesn't make FFA any better though. I am waiting for cutthroat league to go play there, cause here we have a non consequence based driven game which only promotes one way griefers that think they are hardcore while being protected by game mechanics. It's exactly like throwing rocks to a caged lion and feeling hardcore. There is nothing competitive NOR hardcore in abandoning your party to camp their timed gear while you are supposed to fight mobs. If everyone does the same it automatically becomes instanced loot.

We have a bastardized system right now that promotes the ninja mentality and griefing in a protective bubble. And it sucks major

You keep using horrid analogies. The worst part about using a shit analogy is when you keep using the same one.

1) Play with people you know.

2) Play with a group, and if anyone objects to established rules, REMOVE THEM.

3) Play solo you can have all the fucking loot you want.

4) Play Shitablo 3.

5) Move back to Console gaming where you belong.

Those are 5 options you have. I've yet to encounter these "assholes" that take gear from me. Not -ONCE- has someone seen my name on an item, I couldn't get to it in time, and it was taken before I could get it.

What items are you guys getting taken from you? Those awesome 1 blue socket strength helms? That awesome rare that you don't even need for your class?

I'd be mad too if my level 18 Duelist lost a piece of Templar gear, too. /sarcasm


There will always be a better drop. Be faster next time, noob. Don't sit around and appreciate the scenery like a fucking potato.

Why are you being such an asshat about it and condescending??? You are just giving a face to the "evil ffa greedies".

You are a carebear for wanting FFA in a PVE game. You grab more gear than you deserve to put it boldly in an enviroment that entirely protects you from the rest of the players. If someone could kill your and rape your corpse for looting MORE than you deserve then you wouldn't pick that loot. So yeah, you are a carebear indeed.

I don't have any problems picking my gear. Go read the rest of my post. I attacked everyone that had "problems picking their gear" calling them retards, monkey, dead handicapped zombies and so on. It's obvious that with the current system you can easily pick your gear. That doesn't change the fact that this system sucks. Instead of fighting you are camping loot so you can pick it, and everyone else runs around like a retard camping others people loot instead of, well, FIGHT THE FUCKING CREEPS! It's utterly disgusting running a 6man XP party to docks to have 3 people camping a scroll of wisdom. And that's what your great FFA is all about. You either become on of those retards or lose loot. Which, as I said again and again, would be awesome if there were consequences for that, like me killing you. But there aren't. Everyone is free to act like a douche cause the mechanics of this so called " hardcore " game put him in a protective bubble.

Who said I'm not willing to put my money down and what has that to do with anybody. WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO ANYWAYS? Are you fucking insane? If the devs didn't want me to tell them what do about the game, money or not, they would only allow supporters in the forum. Do they...?

I have heard about the game about 4 gears ago on RPS. So yeah...making facts out of your ass certainly make you look cool (no, they don't, don't take that literaly)

Suggesting something different somehow translates into forcing? Actually, I'll say it again. GO READ MY POSTS. If you don't want to then don't talk shit out of your ass. I don't care about the loot system in DEFAULT league cause im going to cutthroat. That's doesnt mean that I have to say "GJ GGG, you OWNED IT" about a loot system that is COMPLETELY terrible. If I deliberetly wanted to make something terrible I probably wouldn't even get close to the levels of terrible that FFA in a PVE game is.

That's MY post in the loot thread. Do I seem having any problems with entintlement? With grabbing my gear? I DONT. I haven't lost a single scroll of wisdom that had timer with my name till this day. But again, that DOESNT mean that the system is ok. Learn to separate those 2 facts. Someone that doesn't like FFA doesnt mean he is a complete moron and cant pick his gear or can't ninja other people's gear. JEsus, use your brain for once.

Then don't play this game, dirt poor chris. GGG wanted FFA looting because it fits the style of game. They don't want to make a fucking Diablo 3. GGG wanted to make the ANTI-Diablo 3.

On topic, I'm not being an asshat, but I am very condescending. This board is full of people who have no fucking right to change what GGG has developed.

Have they contributed funds to this process? No.

A majority of the people who play this game, unfortunately, will not donate their money.

People are tight asses. Those Diamond Supporters, fucking KUDOS to you. You put your money where your mouth is. Certainly puts my 30 dollars donated to shame.

And here's the thing. I've donated 30 dollars, and I'm in NO position to ask GGG to change anything about their game. You 0-dollar-funders can fuck off, plain and simple. I have no reason to be polite to people who want GGG to CHANGE THEIR GAME when you've done nothing but install a .exe of a free videogame.

If you want to play a free videogame where you can do whatever you want, go play Wizards 101.
