LFR Loot changes in MOP

[quote]Here is how looting works in today's Raid Finder groups:
The boss dies.
The game randomly decides which items off of the boss's loot
table drop.
The group rolls Need, Greed, or Pass on each item.
If you were raiding with a group of friends, you might discuss
who should get each item. Even if you ultimately lost, hopefully
you are happy that a friend got an upgrade and that your group
as a whole is now a little bit stronger.
But if you're in Raid Finder, you are quite possibly alone with
a bunch of strangers.
So, if you can Need, you probably do, because there's no time
for discussion, some of the rollers may be AFK, and even if you
piss someone off, you aren't likely to have to pay the social
cost of doing so since you'll never see them again.
The highest roll wins.

Mop Changes:
[quote]So, realistically, that's really all you need to know to
understand how it'll play out in-game. For those looking for
more detail, here's what's happening behind the scenes:
The boss dies.
Each player has a chance to win loot, independent of the other
players.
For each player who wins loot, the game randomly assigns them a
spec-appropriate item from that boss's loot table. This subset
contains only items that the game (meaning the designers in this
case) thinks are appropriate for your class and current spec.
Notice that you aren't rolling Need or Greed. You don't have an
option to Pass. The game just says "Take this."
You can't trade this item, or that would defeat the purpose of
removing the social pressure on groups of strangers. If you
don't want the item, you are free to vendor, delete, or
disenchant it.[/quote]
