Well I personally don't see how the bruiser can be an asshole for wanting to better his character.

The item that dropped was Drape of Selrach, now I’m not sure how rare this cloak is, but should it have went to a plate tank who actually tanks instead of a class that occasionally drags a mob to the Off Tank?In the particular guild, we occasionally wipe due to 100-200hp less on certain mobs. We aren’t in VP yet and are in sub par T8 gear. I’m also the main tank and on certain fights I run out of power. I’m not a greedy person and at first it didn’t bother me, but after thinking about it, was the bruiser just being inconsiderate of the guild and probably thinking more about himself than progression? Would that 7 defense and 400hp and power proc been better off to the off tank or main tank, who actually get’s hit? But after all we all do DKP and it’s there for a reason, just want to know what others think, how much would the guild have benefited by letting the off tank or main tank have it…
Shut the fuck up you crying little bitch! Let me remind you that you are in a guild using DKP. If you don't like the outcome then leave. It's your choice and your choice alone to put up with it.

And yes, yes you are a greedy bastard cause a non greedy person wouldn't make a lame ass post like this to cry to the general public how you got screwed out of some item cause you felt you deserved it more than anyone else. Hell, I'd even bet 1000 plat that you would have made this post even if the off tank out bid you. DIAF plz.

if it's a rock solid set dkp....then thats how it goes...cope

most dkp guilds run dkp with exceptions for main tank items...thats what officers and leaders are for

if you didn't have that set up then there is no reason to be surprised he took it

This post basically explains the reason I dont roll with DKP.

Huge tank piece yes, but hell on the other hand that bruiser will be sexier in his pickup group of Maidens.

Fuck systems that are like that. I do think he's an asshole, because you really shouldn't take something that'd be a huge upgrade for you MT/OTs, but if he wanted to be, that's his choice. Just means you need to make fun of him for the rest of his time.
OMG QFE

A lil late but funny none the less. This is why a certain illusionist won a certain robe over the wizards and warlocks. =/

DKP is a sign of how much time is contributed to the guild. It's like your wages for your job to put it another way. If you think a person is being inconsiderate if they spend it, you're just being sore that they've put more time in.

Another point of interest, bruisers that occasionally offtank in raids, need alot of HP's if they want to survive for more than a second or 2. That cloak absolutely rocks for a bruiser. nothing wrong with him bidding high for it.

Now if it was a cloak that had HP... and also happened to have "+5% shield block" and your bruiser went all in... then maybe I'd call him an ass.
