Had a guildy link one of the new ioun stones in guild chat.  Hadn't seen it before so I clicked, but it said it was no longer available for viewing.  Since he had just posted it I asked him where it went.  He had clicked re-roll instead of loot-all.

He was super happy about paying AS to turn his named loot into vendor trash with no confirmation.  Good times.  Turdbin, you da best!

Yeah, it's just some kind of scheme to teach us hotkeys. What comes next? A shrine which explodes when you click at it, but works if you use the 'interact with' hotkey?
  

That's not opinion, that's science. And science is one cold hearted bitch with a 14 inch strap on.

Why would they introduce something like this when it would be impossible to make money from it.

Instead of exploding, how about a shrine which charges 9 AS to use more than once per run on Hard/Elite.

One thing for everyone who is a "skeptic" on this issue: Insurance companies are basing their underwriting on the assumption that it is real. They are refusing to write policies on homes that are likely to be in danger from rising seas 20 years from now, even though the resale rate of the homes is so high that they could keep writing policies for another 10 years and still not have to pay out on 1 policy in 5, but that would be irresponsible. Unethical, as well, but that's never stopped anyone before.

10.  It's a feature. WAI

11.  People have been asking for this for years.  We value and listen to customer feedback

12.  Loot All

13.  No, you don't get a kiss first

Oh the havoc #12 would wreak

Is anyone actually clicking that button on purpose?  Most end game quests seem to want 15 ass shards to do a re-roll.  That's fucking crazy.  I guess if you have more money than sense it's a nice feature, but geez.  I've never even considered it.  And I'm not averse to spending money in game on things like Tomes, Ottos Boxes, XP pots, etc.

Obviously, there are those people out there that do it, but I don't think most of us actually consider it.  It is the accidental clicks of pain that is annoying.

The three times I have clicked it were all accidents.  I was drinking and grabbing the mouse and BAM!  There went one.

The first one I did was actually a weapon I had been wanting.  I clicked so fast to make sure I got it, OOPS!!

The other two times did not kill me other than losing shards.

Turbine is just taking the micro transaction to the next level and they wanted to see what the masses would do.  If the masses accept it, it is staying as is.  Currently, the masses do not seem to be accepting it.

Luckily, I usually use my left hand for the mouse, so I tend to be on the left side of the screen.  But, sometimes, I use the right hand and drink with the left.

BTW, if I did a poll then that would infer my selections were the best ones.  I know the rest of you have much better ideas for the button.

Anyone who clicks loot all is straight up retarded and inefficient.

Anyone too inept to click the correct button in their fit of inefficiency deserves the 15 ass shard retard tax.

Meh.  Loot All is nice. 

You are one of those jackasses who leaves gems, bolts, and crap in the chest to clog up the window for everybody else.  You probably bust your nut before she gets off and leave the toilet seat up, too.  Selfish asshole.  Grin

I've hit reroll twice now, once by accident and once purposely. I was at the very last chest in EE What Goes Up, looking at some crap loot, and figured fuck it. I ended up getting the Consuming Darkness ring. I probably won't be trying it again though. My luck isn't that good.

Im sure Mr Zynga has already considered every way of making money we can think of, and many more.

In some ways I can see it makes sense. If you are after an EE item which can cost 600 AS (or even thousands for some) on the Shard Exchange, or you can spend 9 AS for a re-roll, you may get lucky and spend a couple of hundred on it.

This is assuming you can do multiple re-rolls.
