    Default Change raid loot to BTA

    This has probably been suggested before.

    Also, I purposely omitted a very important point in the title: I want all raid loot taken from 20th turn ins to be changed to BTA. I thought this one might get more readers .

    The purpose of binding most raid loot is to prevent people from looting everything they find, in the event that they either have an alt that could use it or think that they might have an alt that could use it at some unforeseen point in the future.

    However, the loot you get from the turn in is not available to other people. There is no unbalancing from making it BTA, because there is no greed involved: you are going to get the loot no matter what.

    This is especially appealing, since a lot of the time you will run a raid to 20 and find yourself not needing anything on the list (maybe a +3 tome). For VON specifically, I know a lot of people who run eVON are getting a lot of vendor trash from those extra completion bonuses. I myself have my Sorceror close to 20 on VON, and is going to be severely annoyed if he gets the SoS my other toon could use instead.

    If you think this is too OP, fine. Make it BTA and BTC on equip. That way there still isn't sharing around of raid loot, but you can still do something with that extra loot that you probably won't need (or you could see exactly what another toon needs, and grab that instead of what you were aiming at in case the list doesn't have what you are looking for)

    Feel free to /sign or /not sign, but please leave an explanation as to why.

    EDIT: So far, additional improvements based on comments (mostly knocking this for being to easy button/OP/etc.) are:

    Tomes are excluded, 20th completion tomes remain BTC

    Higher ML of BTA for first equip, to prevent twinking high level raid gear items down to low level non-TR toons. (ML would return to normal after first equip, to enable easy TR-twinking later.)
