Maybe this is a noob question, but any ideas why I can't need any loot in dungeon, only allows me to greed, saying that this item is not for my class, even though I think its a useful piece for my equipment.

You better read up on what kind of items your spec needs and general rules of dungeon looting. Before you get banned for ninja and go "omg not fair" etc
I am in no way saying "omg not fair" as you seem to be implying, I was simply asking a question. The option to "need" for an item was grey out, I'm simply asking why.Quote:

What I was trying to say is, lots of players "think" and NEED on stuff / then they get banned / then they make topics how unfairly they got banned.
instance joined via "dungeon finder"?
because: https://wowwiki-archive.fandom.com/wiki/Patch_3.3.0
3.3.0 patch: "The Need Before Greed loot system will be the unalterable default looting system for pick-up groups in the Dungeon Finder and has been updated.
1. Need Before Greed will now recognize gear appropriate for a class in three ways: the class must be able to equip the item, pure melee will be unable to roll on spell power items, and classes are limited to their dominant armor type (ex. paladins for plate). All items will still be available via Greed rolls as well as the new Disenchant option should no member be able to use the item.
2. Players will be able to roll on items with a required minimum level higher than a player's current level.

The "classes are limited to there dominant armor type" is the most annoying part.
Even worse if there is an echanter in the group. Always fun to see an upgrade turn into a splitter or chrystal :(
It's annoying when it hinders your own gear progression, but you love it when a shaman or a druid would want to roll for "your" cloth items.Quote:

But ofcourse clothies are limited to just cloth, so it's only fair that they get an Advantage when rolling for it.
But I just feel bad everytime an upgrade is disenchanted. The clothies don't Need or want the Item, but the druid healer looses the de/greed Roll against the rouge and the upgrade is literally turned into dust.
Maybe there should be an extra tier to rolling.
1st Need for armor Type
2nd Need for can use the stats on the item
3 greed and disenchant
Or you can just make your own group, split the loot in whatever way you see fit?
Which is more realistic?:
1. Staff makes some extra rolling layers, work, bugs, even if it is possible,
2. You use already existing mechanisms to play and get whatever loot you want, just exactly the way it was intended.
3. Communicating via existing means (chat).Quote:

The reason cloth is more plentiful is because there are 3 classes that use that specific armor type. Meanwhile there is literally only one class for each of the other armor types that uses caster items of said armor type. Of course cloth is going to be more plentiful, the cloth-wearers have more competition for it.Quote:

Capitalization for emphasis.
There's really no issue with this if you just speak with the people you play with, as the post above me says.
I am a druid heal and a cloth chest drops that no one needs:
All 5 people greed. I ask the person who won the item if I can have it. He gives it to me. Voila
the issue is that most people choose disenchant faster than you can type that you need it after it dropped. so try to tell people what you need before the bossQuote:
