    For all the smartarses saying "we already have that" you clearly didn't read the thread.

    Yes, you can exchange tomestones for DL and AF2 gear, but with Coil (which is what OP was talking about) it is just luck of the draw. I've only done T1 and T2 so far, but each time I've completed there hasn't even been a healing item drop. I don't see the problem with letting someone who has beaten the dungeon many times not get the reward at some point down the line.

    Cleared turn 1-4 for two weeks and 1-2 for 4 weeks prior to that, Since 2 healer pieces drop. Our DRG practically got everything, our Blm got everything, 3 pieces of tank gear, 2 pieces of brd gear.

    Imo, to compensate for Melee being week, I think SE ninja adjusted the drop rates in BCB to favor Mnk/Drg. We ran it yesterday and got 3 pieces of mnk gear and we don't even run with a mnk.

    Someone in your group should level a monk, play it well and then tell me it's weak. Not even close. We cleared turn 2 last weekend and BLM/SMN gears drop when we don't have a single BLM/SMN with us. RNG is RNG.

    I didn't mean to infer drg/mnk are weak, I was merely stating the generally accepted opinion of the populous.

    Our drg does great, and higher dmg than most people I've encountered. Mnk's are ok minus greased lightning dropping during movement mechanics. And what I stated was based on the drops we get over 2 months. You say mage gear dropped, I'm saying all of our drops are mostly mnk/drg and blm/smn and we clear 1-4 every monday now.

    And to your point, turn 4 is way more of a team comp dps check than turn 2. You can do turn 2 with 4 melee if you can handle rot and have 2 paladins. I wouldn't want to do turn 4 without at least one aoe based mage.

    nice way to start off with an insult. You want the same gear that drops from Coil but from other source? But, myth is the same iLvl as coil drops. In some cases Myth is better than what coil loot.

    We already have a token system and it's called tomestones. Go cry somewhere else

    Even with that system, you are better off spending myth tomes due to lockout. Unless you want to wait 40 weeks to get a T1 piece, which is near equivalent to myth in many cases.

    "They have tomes 'because' Coil is 'luck of the draw', so that people can still gear up with what pieces they want when coil isn't dropping their sheeeet" They shouldn't have to hold your hand just cause of your bad luck. I'm having bad luck too, which is ironic, cause i'm a drg and most people have gotten nothing but drg drops... while my group is getting all healer gear/caster gear/brd gear. So what did I do to make up for it? I've now got 4/5 of my myth main body slots to make up for it until I can get my allagan best in slot.

    It's as simple as wiping your own ass.

    I read the Op and I have also been doing coil without getting drops the fact of the matter is we already have this system in place. It may not be the exact item in some cases but you can turn in tomes for comparable gear.

    We usually rotate between a couple of monks that absolutely wreck in Coil. The only downside is the dancing they have to do to get out of stuff that causes a DPS loss. If anything the buff will make up for the times they have to get out of red stuff.
