Loot thieves

So after running BT about 50 times, my eniga weapon finally dropped. It's the only reason I'm running it so can sell it and maybe get the one I was forced to buy up to +9.

At the last moment loot was set to free for all by the leader and he picked it up. Then started shouting nonsense and disbanded the pt.

The endgame system is already discouraging, I was double billed yesterday and now this. I'm starting to really get fed up.

One of the many reasons I don't do PUG groups unless used as a last resort.

People should be able to Vote on Loot Rights and Loot Rights shouldn't be changed in Combat and should have a 120sec combat timer much like kicking people from the group.

These simple fixes will make ninja looting impossible.

Yeah or something where you can't change it right before/after the final boss goes down?

Simple fix. This is beyond frustrating because I've been running BT for 2 weeks and the first time I see it drop it gets stolen.

For clarification's sake, obviously loot was set to class restricted until right before the boss went down.

This is maddening. Maddening!

So many easy fixes for this that EME can do. Vote on the loots, put loot rules on a cool down, set the loot rules when the group is formed and lock it until the group disbands, etc. etc. etc.

I love TERA, but each day I am hating the other people that play it more and more because of crap like this.

There really is no valid reason I have seen as of yet for changing the loot rules.
It just shouldn't be allowed at all.

This guy obviously intended to troll from the start though.
I would have looked at his name and bailed party.

I prefer not to, too, but I play at odd hours and often it's my only way to get in.

I don't know what to do now. I can't trust a pug group to not steal.

I was a big supporter/defender of this game, but now I feel like I can't even play it.

The community that loves the game is too stupid to know it's also driving people away and soon we will be left without a game.

It's not the game's fault perhaps, so you can still defend the game, blame the horrible people that are now known as, the MMO community.

It's one rotting cesspool from hell.

There are plenty. BoE/BoP non-enigmatic stuff is enchantment fodder/sold at brokerage, so there isn't really any reason to use class specific for those if everyone already has them/better.

And priests/lancers/mystics enigmatic weapons are cheap (on our server at least), they don't really have any reason to run BT if it's set as class-specific, they will have better income running FoK and selling the drops and then just buying the weapon. Then they don't even need to risk having party that won't be able to complete the instance.

After they realize that and DPSes don't want to change the loot rules, queue times for DPSes in BT will become even longer.

That's fine if it was set up that way in the first place and everyone agrees. Obviously the understanding in this run was that it was class specific, it was set as class specific during the entire run, and it was changed as the boss died and the leader stole the item. I didn't even get a chance to roll on it.
