why on earth arent the best items in the game lootable ??i dont understand why you have to buy them?I mean i find it totally ok to have some very good items for sale but i thing that the best /better items should be loot/reward in very difficult quests/encounters that are not necessarily included in the main quest..thoughts?

Generally, many of the best items in DA2 are loot-able. The Mantle of the Champion, for example.

In Awakening the best items are quest rewards (Heartwood Shield, Vigilance, Golem Shell Armor) or loot (f.e. Sentinel armor set, Staff of the lost)
In Origins you also have f.e. Starfang as reward or f.e. the Warden Commander armor as loot.

I like that personally. DA has a decent economy for a SP game. Generally, I find money to be a big problem in games. Not just RPGs. I always find myself grinding for a bunch and it's useless about a third through the game. Most games tend to reward everything you do with money. That's a major flaw if it ends up being useless halfway through the game.
DA makes money useful throughout the game. You have to break the bank to buy legendary items. That's how it should be. You shouldn't be able to buy every powerful item on the market. That in turn motivates me to use other mechanics. Like, looting everything in my environment so I can build currency up. If I know it's going to be useless, I'm not going to bother with it. It's the same philosophy in all these silly sandbox games - rewarding you with endless money and nothing to do with it. By the time I reach the halfway point, I avoid side-quests completely because I have no reason to do them.
DAO/DA2 avoids these problems. It's ok to only reward me with currency if I'm still using it by the end of the game. You can buy many amazing items off the merchants.

I hate that the Rogue can't loot everybody. He/she should be able to loot merchants.

I don't see a problem with the best items needing to bought. Plus you need to loot the gold first anyway.
