I assume you are aware of the irony of using the very type of personalized argument in your third paragraph that you highlight in your second paragraph. I was intentionally trying not to personalize my own drop rate (which is fairly good) but instead use the general trend of anecdotes from people.

In any event, yes, Kirin and Odin have higher drop rates for items and abjurations. Sure, perhaps not the most DESIRED ones (W. Legs, E. Body), but higher drop rate of stuff nonetheless. Odin has guaranteed loot slots for abjurations. Prov Watcher's loot table is just as big, if not bigger, than Kirin/Odin etc. But most of those items have the exact same low drop rate. As for your other example, JoL farts out an earring 100%, it's just a flip of the coin whether it's a Novia or Novio. Your personal experience is irrelevant to my point because although it took you time to get DKP for a Novio, OTHER PEOPLE in your group were getting either Novias or Novios every kill. That isn't happening here.

Granted it does take longer to get popsets for other endgame content bosses, but I guess people can decide for themselves whether a 1-5% drop rate of an NM that takes 6 Caturae kills and a Dragon kill evens out with an NM like Odin that takes 9 chamber kills spread out over a larger time period and a horsey kill.
