Except Round Robin doesnt even work.
The loot system has a lot of problems, and one of them is that round robin suddenly starts giving all drops to a single person in the party, usually whoever does the most dmg.

Solution: Trade.
If an item end up on the wrong class, trade it! (If IMC reconsiders, of course)
Round robin and random dont even work. It’s really just

Sad to play a support and get nothing at all from hours of farming while the dps in the group get 20 recipes, bunch of exp cards and what not.

This logic is flawed. If a mace drops and the wizard gets it and cleric gets a staff drop, how is that any good. I can’t even believe this is even being debated.
Need, Greed and Pass. Such a simple concept.
Need - You really want this item. Make this optional available if it’s an item your base class can use (Staff/Rod for Wizard, Mace for Cleric, Swords/Spears for Swordsman and Bows/Guns for Archer). As for daggers, they be FFA.
Greed - You’ll take the item if no one else needs it Always available.
Pass - You don’t want it. Self-explanatory.
It’s so simple and so basic. This shouldn’t even be up for debate. This is the best system versus nothing.
yeah… i was duo grinding with this priest and noticed that i was the only one getting loots. the round robin distribution is broken.
The random distribution is broken too. I hardly get anything if i don’t do damage as a support.

Please look into this as it hurts the support class gameplay.

Playing a FS Cleric sucks : I have yet to be able to complete ANY collections as I do not get any loot EVER despite the party loot being set to round robin.
This is so dumb.
Please fix!
Might I add, I believe this game distributes loot based on damage regardless of round robin being enabled. My support and tank friends have not been getting any drops as I take all the drops.

Round robin is bugged at the moment. It worked in icbt2.
Also, trading is available in icbt2 so we don’t actually have such problem.
Um no, the need/greed works just fine as long as you play with the right people. Not our fault you can’t make some friends to play using this practical option fairly. And not like you would be forced to use this option, this would be decided by party leader and if you don’t like it then leave that group and join another or create your own…

I think one of the things people forget is there was a time where there was no such thing as cross-server match-making. If a player ninja’d stuff or abused the Need or Greed system, someone was liable to take screenshots and shame them on the server’s board. Or it was a PvP server and things got… eventful.
I still think that items trading is way better than this system, without any cons.
Yes but it seems less likely they will implement the item trading (which I too think would be ideal) so may as well make other logical suggestions they may consider because thus far my gf and I have been extremely irritated without being able to help each other out properly…

When are they going to look into this shet???
But then people wouldn’t need to buy a premium token to trade those items.
This is working exactly as intended.
There are plenty of benefits people will buy them for anyways. Especially in a game that becomes more popular and enjoyable because it is handled how it should be. And more people happy with how the proper systems are in place and they are happy with an ethically and reasonably handled Tree of Savior. I know my gf and I would be among these supporters, we love to buy cosmetics and consumables from the cash shop.
People should not have to spend $18 to trade. What if you’re in a PUG and an item drops? Not everyone is going to have a token in the party. I guess they’re screwed, right? No, loot distribution should be a thing and it should be accessible to everyone.
To say this game or any MMO doesn’t need some sort of loot system is incredibly short-sighted.

Guys, what I’m saying is the following: IMC wants to milk the ■■■■ out of everyone so they will not implement systems which, in their eyes, will decrease the chance for people to pay money.
I think it’s disgusting to be honest.

Indeed, I find it underhanded and unethical; we have several friends who were waiting and watching to see if it would be worth it investing their money into this game. But, out of principle they decided to stay away from it until at least the major issue of the trading restriction is properly addressed…
Thank you! Support class is my first love and it’s so discouraging that this is broken at the moment without even being acknowledged by the GMs.
