I'm a low lvl(19now) Tank and just wanna ask a few of you what the best way to make sure you can always pay for repairs and gain some tunar for your effort. What might you say or do? Do you always loot for yourself? Solo to make loot? pick up all loot so you know you have enough? please help cause i'm already starting to dislike some people i have had good grp's with, cause then loot becomes an isue and i log off all pissed or close to it.

reading all your suggestions
commentas and stories

Thanks,
Vestis

well you say your low level, what level are you? because imo looting doesn't matter really until you get to about lvl 20.
The rule of thumb is that Tanks get all stackable for repairs, you roll for Rare, with NB4G being the rule there. So if you are tankin you kill the mob who loots doesn't matter you or others. If you loot only take the stackables. if other loot they should at some point give you the stackable.
I was in a grp the other day we XPed for about 3 hrs. when it was all done my armor was all damaged and all the members of the grp gave me the stackable items. now did they give me all? I don't know and don't care. I had enough to repair plus extra for the bank and i got major XP

If you aren't getting your share don't worry as the other classes move higher they learn the rule. Sometimes if i grp with ppl i dont know. I may say at the start of the fighting "Remember I get all stackable" just to remind them.

When you get some Training Points, use it on Strength and Stamina. Go Solo'n on stuff you know you can kill when you are meleeing. The items may not be very rare, but you can sell them.

as someone said before looting dosent really matter that much till u hit lvl 20..but my main tank..wears about every accesory that there is...so i am very greedy and take everythin for myself...but if the grp asks me for everythin but stacks..im fine with that...but not until lvl 20 should u worry about repairs

Usually I ask healer/caster to loot for me. I rarely like a rouge to loot; cuz i dont trust em lol.

Don't worry people usually give you enough and if at the end of a long grind u still need tunar for repairs, ask for money from the the cheap bastards!

1 agreed 2 agreed (only problem is u can never be sure u truly get all the stacks, i've counted before when there was only one type of stack that dropped, looter gave most but not all and i was short on repairs!!! blacklisted!)
3 only slows you down maybe, maybe 1 sec per kill, what slows u down is when 1 or 2 other peeps are checking to see whats there, let me take my stack and u can take what i leave while pulling another
