Loot Priority

Let's talk about loot priority for a moment. We have a set of rules and if you stick by them, drama is minimized. In our years of raiding experience, there is no other single form of contention as bad as Loot Priority. Raids without a clear distribution hierarchy that all raiders agree to are doomed to failure. By joining a Downfall raid, you agree to the following:
- If you're brought in to DPS, you get priority on DPS gear.
- If you're brought in to tank, you get priority on tanking gear, but NOT dps gear.
- If you're brought in to heal, you get priority on healing gear, but NOT tanking gear or dps gear.
"But!" You may cry out with the anguish of a thousand nub sobs. "How is my paladin/warrior/priest/shaman/druid supposed to get his pewpew/clangclang set?! Am I just supposed to heal/tank for the rest of my WoW career?!"
This is an easy answer. Yes. Yes, you are. If that bothers you, raidquit get an arena team going and go PvP for your dps gear. We each raid as very specific cogs in a very powerful machine. If just one of us doesn't do his job properly, the machine fails. I am a healer. I know how incredibly important my role is. I take great pride in the fact that I'm a rare and talented player. So should all you healers and tanks.
Each situation requires you to ask "What role am I in the raid RIGHT NOW?" And, as with all things in Downfall, if there are issues regarding loot it is ultimately up to the raid leader at hand for final decision.
