Off-spec raiding and loot distribution

Ahey, :)

You're actually supposed to roll for on-spec loot, regardless of how you raid, unless you were asked to respec for the express purpose of making the raid work, in which case, the raid leader might give you special consideration and allow you to roll for the off-spec loot.

Cheers,
J.

This was kinda the case on Last sundays ZA raid, when Kersh was asked to respec to tank it, and tank loot dropped. It was resolved that he should get the loot for making the raid work, continually respeccing when needed and it was a vast improvement.

What happens though if you choose to raid as off spec, cos if a holy pally chose to raid as retri and rolled healer gear as on-spec and won it, i'd say i'd be a bit miffed.
Similarly if another retri pally lost out because that pally rolled on-spec for retri loot, i'd imagine they'd be pissed.
^^Note the words Chose and Choose, being asked is different^^

Do we need to define a third layer of rollage here to clarify any probs which may arise, especially as it could happen more in 25 man content? such as:
On-spec rolls
Re-Specced rolls
Off-spec rolls

That is a tricky one, actually... if you choose to respec but to not change what your on-spec is, then it is tricky ground... I'd probably say that they go with their on-spec rolls still, but a dose of common sense is obviously needed. If it's a progression raid, it isn't much of an issue since everyone should be their on-spec unless they've had to respec to make it work (ref: Kershan)
