So I've finally had my chance now to go and clear normal mode Eternity Vault and Karagga's Palace, and we noticed something, there would be multiple items which we could roll upon, recipes, and Biometric Crystal Alloys etc. but then there would be 4 or so items that would be automatically assigned to different players, these items would be at random, but seemingly something that you could at least equip.
As a tank I got a DPS helm, twice. I had the same helm equipped at the time, but with different mods and enhancement, there was also a Weapon that dropped for me - again a DPS one, and again, the one I already had but with different mods etc. Now, all three of these went to the trash for me, however there were others in the raid that these would have been useful for.
My girlfriend got one item out of the entire instance, a Relic, but it was a normal version relic, while she already has two Columi relics from PvPing. Again, this would have been better for someone else.
So my main questions here are two things:
1. What happened to the Loot bags you were supposed to get where everyone got something? Because only half our raid would get something per boss, and it would be at random, some people got loot from every boss while others only got one or two pieces at most.
2. How the **** do you turn this ******** off? It's stupid that as a Tank I am being assigned items that I have absolutely no use for that would benefit someone else in my group far more. It's just stupid, and quite frankly, this is one major thing that doesn't sit right with me - I can look past most of the rest since they are issues that can easily be fixed, but this right here is directly wasting all of our time as not only do we have to fight RNG to actually get the item to drop, we have to fight RNG to see if we were lucky for the game to allow us to actually have that item.
We tried master loot and group loot, and in both cases, the loot is automatically assigned. Please give us a way to assign loot cause this is silly.
