In little over two weeks I have run CT 35 times in which I recorded the drops by class.
Monk - 28
Dragoon - 32
Healer - 22
Tank - 10
Caster DPS - 23
Bard - 22
Which is 137 of 140 drops - probably missed the other 3 due to sobriety issue...
As you can see there is no real balance in the RNG with the disparity between the single class use gear (ie Monk or Dragoon) compared to that of a dual use piece (ie Tank).
It's always dragoon gears, tank gears, and monk pant for me.
SO SICK OF THEM.
Problem solved: CT grants a token. 1-5 tokens required to get a gear piece from a vendor in Mor Dohna.
And done.
Random is Random until the loot table is bugged and it's not random then after they said they fixed it it's random again.
You want random? Place all available drops in randomly their own chest, then randomly put them in a random order and then you pick a chest
random x random x random = random
Sorry but I'm going to have to say it all depends on the luck of the draw.
I have never seen the monk body and have been going +100 times for boots and never once glanced at them. Even Bard boots don't exist for me.
But - I guess it's all just random. Sometimes I just settle for anything each week and are just happy to be done with it. lol
It is random. One person "only sees" MNK and DRG. Another "only sees" Tank and Healer. Someone else will only see BLM and BRD. It is random. We tend to only remember what we want to remember. I bet if people actually recorded all loot drops in CT (thousands of runs), the drops would probably look more even.
One thing to consider is simply that CT drops six types of gear. And three of those are job specific (BRD, MNK and DRG). So, on any given chest, right there that is a 50% chance to get one of those jobs.
And 35 runs is too small to draw any conclusions.
And if it is worth anything, I did 2500 synths for my luminary tool, each one with a 1% HQ chance. I wound up with 27 HQ items (expected would have been 25). On my second luminary tool, on a similar run, I got 22 HQ items. Pretty much evened out. More samples are needed to accuse the RNG of being off.
i'm at 4 week and i did see only 1 tank body and 1 pant, i had some run with 3/4 monk item and often i have 2/4 for one class, is not normal to have more than 1/4 for the same class, i'm amazed that they haven't put some limitation for avoid this.
i have heard of a group that had 4/4 monk ! it's insane!
