    I totally agree with the OP and was going to make a suggestion about this as well. I got fairly lucky with Fistfighter's drops early on, but this last week or so, I haven't seen any of the new sets at all, and only a couple of Darklight pieces. The rest have been mostly Minium or Aqueous Whetstones or Voidsent Blood. These particular materials are often worth an amount of gil less than what is earned by killing a single enemy in the dungeons where they are obtained. It is especially irritating to find two or more separate drops of the same material in one instance.

    The other dungeons make all materials drop from bronze coffers, why isn't it the same with the Expert Roulette dungeons? Either crafting items should be added to bronze coffers and removed from silver and gold, or silver and gold coffers should be made to drop one equipment along with one material, or the crafting items should be removed entirely. After all, we have two other sources for these materials. One may turn in Darklight drops for seals now, and then trade those seals for the same materials, but not vice versa.

    Thank you! You summed it up perfectly

    A post with a reasonable opinion, with a very good suggestion that is backed up by facts. Are you sure you are in the correct forums?

    By the way, the two chests people are talking about that have a 100% rate on Darklight items; I think those chests drop accessories only, not armor pieces.
