Its the right idea, but implemented very poorly. I've used this example three times allready, and because you clearly dont read the thread, I'll post it again.

You're in salvage...You kill Qiqirn Treasure Hunter...Macha's Coat drops.
Instead of casting lots, so the person who you want to get that rare item that finally dropped after going 0/100...the game randomly assigns it to someone. The person who gets it doesnt even have any mage jobs leveled. The group forces them to hold the macha's coat in storage instead of tossing or storing it.

40 runs later...
You defeat the Qiqirn Treasure Hunter.
You find a Macha's Coat on the Qiqirn Treasure Hunter.
The Macha's Coat was lost...because the game decided to auto-lot it to that person who allready had it.
