BoP Item Trade Change Coming in 3.2

According to a post on MMO-Champion, a new feature was added in the latest PTR patch that lets you "trade BOP items with members of your raid who participated in the kill." It looks like a time limit will be placed on the trade. For example, a screenshot supplied with the post shows a 22-slot Dragon Hide Bag that the player can trade in 1 hour and 59 minutes according to the tooltip.

ZAM user Ailitardif started a thread on this topic in our WoW general forum, and it seems like most of our readers agree this will help both master looters and lessen the amount of GM tickets submitted regarding the distribution of BoP items. What do you think?

so this means if the master looter messes up you can fix that problem unless the person who wrongly recieved it ninjas it. i like that idea.

Not entirely related but I remember one time doing OS25 and this one guy (who was the ML) rolled and won on some staff, then before allocating it he offered to sell it to the highest bidder. Someone paid a lot of money to him for it. I felt a little sick at that but apparently most people felt it was acceptable.

He was the correct class and main spec to make use of the staff and it was an upgrade for him, but that's not really the point.

This will be nice for all kinds of mishaps, including missed disenchanting opportunities and "I forgot I already have one of those Unique-Equip epic items."

I just hope the ninja-looters don't use it as a "new form of master loot, I'll just take everything and 'hand it out' at the end"...

Now Master Looters will have two full hours for bidding on an item. Before, players were forced to bid with only the cash they had on hand. Now you can make emergency undercutting auctions for that last 100g to release the hostaged lewt.
