On Deathgaze Hollow, it dropped 2 Diabolic Helm of Fending, I am fairly sure this is a bug since there is only one tank in the party. Furthermore both ended up lost since no one needed them. On Scathach, it dropped 2 pair of diabolic boots of aiming that no one needed and they got lost. There are huge amount of drop issues in this duty finder like these examples. Healer gear never drops, I did tons of runs last week and this week and yes I played it on day 1 + and never seen healer body, healer pants and all caster gear. i only saw caster pants, Diabolic Bottoms of Casting, once. It is a high frequency that a lot of drops no one wants because some drops, drop too much.

It's RNG, it's just random. Double drops can occur with any piece, since other people than the actual tank can greed on them.

Confirmation bias is a harsh mistress.

We only had one tank, and both got lost, it is clearly a bug to be dropping tank gear so much that no one needs. so they need to fix this.. what you call "RNG"

Its not a bug, its been like this since Void Ark. Its possible for two of the exact same gear for a job that isn't even there in any party to drop.

Plus you can still roll on gear outside your class. If the Tank wanted one they could easily get it while everyone else could go for the other if they wanted to.

The game doesn't care what jobs are or aren't there, it just rolls an item from the boss' loot list and goes for it. End of story. RNG says that any and all combinations of drops are possible, however improbable. You just happened to get a series of improbable (and unfortunate) drops.
