    VW is not broken. Most of us make on average 1-4M gil per 4x Qilin... Not to mention we could open a shoe shop with how many boots we have seen.

    Trade your cells, cap your lights, proc your TH - and you will get drops half the time. If you don't - keep all the synth mats and AH or NPC them. Still a great way of making gil. After doing 4-8x qilin's you can just straight out buy one of the scrolls you miss.

    I do agree with WoE though. If you're not a SMN or PLD you might as well not bother. The drops in WoE are terrible - and yes for some reason I could open a bank with the amount of coins of ruin I could have kept. Coins of Ruin seem like a stupidly high drop rate compared to other coins (if people actually make WoE weapons these days).

    Perhaps tie the coins into what job you are currently on - ie BLM will get ruin, RDM will get coin for sword - etc etc.

    Another suggestion is copy the voidwatch format loosely and implement that into WoE. Give everyone the ability to read hints for staggers, add alignment that is shared with everyone in that conflux, give all the mobs the ability to be proc'd (or on multi-boss zones like the mandies - can proc only the pink ones or something).

    Finally add some form of gil or cruor reward to the end - doesnt have to be much, however when people are grinding out WoE and get nothing for the 4-5 hours that they may spam it for - it gets a little unmotivating. WoE is dying fast - and for an event that needs quite a lot of participants to work, it will head in the same direction as Campaign. We all know how bad campaign is these days (even with the exp/IS buff)

    My record is 29 plates out of 34 qilin runs (didn't get any pouches in the first 28 runs, got lucky with 2 pouches within 5 runs of each other.) You must be pretty damn lucky if you're doing 1-4M per 4x qilin. Is that per person or as a group?

    Per person.

    Out of 4x Qilins, the majority of us are getting a pouch. This is majority - as from time to time a good chunk of us wont get any - yet most of the time, the majority of us get a pouch as a minimum.

    Have seen someone getting 2x pouches and comet in 4x Qilins - hence why my upper limit was about 4M - but most of the time most people in our group end up with a pouch. Maybe it is just luck though. All in all - you either get them or you don't.

    So I will stand by my opinion that voidwatch is fine - yet WoE needs work. In fact WoE is in such a bad state that give it another month or two tops - and there will be just as many people doing Campaign as there are in WoE.... In fact sometimes that is already the case. WoE requires a decent head count for it to be worth while and yet with an aging game, and less and less people caring about scrolls/coins - the event is headed in the wrong direction.
