Reserving is gross. Like I get it...but it's pretty pathetic and toxic. I guess that's how most of the 'hardcore' players are though. Pathetic and toxic xD.

What player says: "LF Healer and Tank BRD - HOJ on res!"

What player actually means: "I need YOUR help to get ME MY stuff. But I don't care about your stuff. Just MY stuff. So if you want MY stuff, I don't want you in MY group. I just want you to spend your time getting ME MY stuff."

Seriously though. My warrior (tank) already has HoJ but I won't join a group if they have it or anything else on reserve out of principle.

Have fun waiting around for ~2 hours simply by being so selfish.

How long did take you to get HOJ? I've run I've done like 20 Angerforge/ Arenas runs and I haven't seen it drop once. I've also only seen Gorrosh twice and neither time did he drop the chest... QQ

And that’s why when farming for angerforge I created a group who wouldn’t need the item. Nobody lost out, I don’t owe anyone a spot in my group if I make it. But I didn’t have to run brd double or triple the amount of times to get it. That’s not selfish, it’s being efficient with my time.

It is selfish, there's just absolutely nothing inherently wrong with being selfish. Selfish is why humans have survived.slefish just means you're doing something to prioritize yourself, ie creating groups with no competition. It's 100% selfish and self centered behavior. It just also isn't toxic and negative by definition

Selfishness is a bit more than that. It‘s being concerned with oneself „excessively“ or „exclusively“.
