As a person that does have issues trusting people, I think this is a good idea, its not like you have to do it to get any loot, nothing is stopping you from being given the rest of the shards, but it does infact gives people who don't trust others the option to go bossing without the worry of a scam.
If you have no problem splitting a drop, you should not have a problem with this

what a waste of time, why would you not bring both into the game?
a lot of people was hoping for loot share while shard share to replace the old coin share.

anyone with half of a brain would of added both, the majority that didn't want lootshare was probably the same skiller kids as always.

@Ronan earning Lsp was also a small price to pay which most people was happy with doing when getting a drop.

Tweet from Ash on the subject...

Ash: I'm unsure about the fairness of LSP, given how it carried over between monsters. It was designed to allow RS trade restrictions.


So yah, it's ShardShare poll time; if you want a lootsharing system, vote it in...or stop complaining.

This seems pointless, why not just have it be coin share then? With the original idea of it being sold in GE.

Why create a completely new system.......when it works exactly the same?

ShaunDreclin said :
Why would somebody buy 300 item shards and combine them unless it was cheaper than buying the item normally? The shards won't sell on the GE unless they're cheaper

Another reason this is a horrible idea.
Shards won't sell, except for lower than they're technically worth.
The original Coin Share idea was much better because it meant that the people who get the drop get an even split of the actual value.

I was in complete support of the original Lootshare and Coin Share ideas
I'll vote no if this is what it chances to.

Also, how are random other drops distributed? Is it an even chance for everyone involved every time?
Like...that infamous Poison Arrow drop from Zammy doesn't mean someone won't get drops for awhile...They still have the same chance on the next drop?

yay love the shard share and cant wait for it and loot share in game :)

Except Lootshare won't be a thing.
Shard Share will replace it.


Coinshare just would implement too many coins into the game. They are trying to stay away from bringing more coins into the game faster. If there was no GE, then they wouldn't be able to give coin share because there'd be no value besides street price.

If you don't like it, then don't do Lootshare, simple enough.

I like the idea of shard share, except for one thing. I would rather it be enabled in everyworld, but only via an entrance fee for an instanced fight for bosses. This would allow people to kill.

I feel that adding it on certain worlds is only going to over populate it, and make it even harder for a person soloing to find an empty world.
