    Thank you Square Enix Incorporated!

    The [size=5]Three people[/size] that got them today were really happy!

    But you know what would have been really cool:

    If the [size=5]Eight[/size] other boots didn't keep going to the same people!

    Can you PLEASE, Pretty please, with a Cherry on top, PLEASE do something to make this a tiny bit less ENRAGING???

    Anything???
    PLEASE???

    Please.
    If you want them to nerf the drop rate into oblivion, sure. Otherwise, it's not going to happen.

    Basically, it can be one of two things:

    Super-low drop rate and normal treasure pool distribution
    relatively high drop rate (by comparison at least) and item goes to random people.

    Sorry to be Negative Nancy here. But whatever the solution, they're going to be sure you have to do the fight a similar number of times.

    In that case, I'd take the super low drop rate (not that the drop rate isn't pretty damn bad already) any day. So at least when the item drops, it'll go to someone who wants it and can equip it.

    I don't like that metal and ra/ex drops share the same placement in boxes. The two should be individual from each other and contain no bullshit drops like wood or rocks... I would rather open a box with literally nothing in it than see a box full of worthless crap.

    "Congratulations, adventurer! You defeated the one of the highest tier NMs of Voidwatch! Here, have this black rock. No really, it's all yours. ^^"

    The idea of not being able to choose to distribute what items you get in your box to a loot pool is beyond retarded. I seen people with no melee jobs get DD bodies and vice versa multiple times.

    Rare being rare is one thing but the loot distribution is stupid.

    This is your opinion, not ours.

    I'd honestly rather have more of the item produced. It's not like someone who can't use it yet can't save it for later.

    Think about it. if the overall chance of you personally getting the item is the same by either method (Unless you go with people who will let you have the drop no questions asked), wouldn't it be better to see more of that item go around and have it be less rare overall?

    Obviously I'd rather have both good drop rates and be able to choose who gets it. But as far as SE is concerned, you tend not to be able to have your cake and eat it too.

    My main gripe with the loot distribution system isn't so much that people get an item they can't equip (yet). It's much more when the SAME person gets the SAME ra/ex item several times.

    What part of eleven R/E boots going to three people says "increased circulation" to you?

    Then I don't think it would be too much to ask for the same R/E item not to drop for someone who already has it.

    See above. If someone already has it, they shouldn't get another one. Agree fully with that. Still, it's random. How many people did you have there?
