I'm a 35 LNC/DRG at time of writing.
I've done all dungeons (I think) up to my current level. In every dungeon, on every run, there is gear from chests that lists LNC/DRG as being able to equip the item, and yet I cannot "Need" it. I partied with another DRG yesterday who remarked he had the same problem in all his dungeon runs too.
I don't know if this problem is unique to LNC/DRG as I haven't done dungeons on any other class/job.
It's not a bug. SE made Need based on your role. Meaning Gladiator and Marauder can no longer lot DPS pieces they could otherwise wear (like Foestriker, etc.) and DPSs can not lot on Tank role armor they could otherwise wear (like MRD/GLD/LNC specific gear. While it's true LNC can wear it, it is sturdy tank armor, not DPS). I'm afraid we'll have to cope with this.
I'm ok with this, but only if they also allow role specification. A LNC or DRG in sturdy armor can be a tank in a pinch, and a THM with CNJ spells slotted can be a healer. Allow such dual-role jobs to enter dutyfinder, even if a a 50% matching preference, and they can then lot need on their selected role gear. It may also shorten the long wait times (in most cases it's the tank and heal slot that are slow to fill).
