This. I can see raiders holding out and not taking gear because they don't want to give up their chance at the correct stats, given once they take a piece of gear they have to wait for everyone else to get the same ilvl piece before they can get another shot at it. I also think about the poor loot masters who have to sift through this mess...two pieces dropped that are the same, piece A has a gem slot, and piece B doesn't. Piece B has optimal stats, Piece A has less-than-optimal stats. Five people ask for them both, since they can both be used in the slot, but they want one of the items more than the other, and it will vary by raider. Ugly.So how do they (devs) think this will effect loot distribution? Jimmy and Johnny both got a piece of gear last week, but Jimmy claims that this crit piece will give him 100 more dps then Johnny and it is his BiS. However, we still have Jack, James and Justin who don't really go for crit, but are lacking that item level.....
