apolo started a thread regarding giving special favors for party leaders such as giving bonuses to party leader (which imo is kind of dumb... you going to have everyone wanting to be PT leaders by doing that...anyways) he/she also asked everyone to post their comments on what favors party leaders should get and people responded with the basics such as PT Leader being able to join/divide a party into groups or being able to decide on loot distribution. Rep responded as following:

その中で、必要な機能なはずである、
Thank you for all the ideas for giving favor to party leader!
Within those ideas those features that should already be in such as:

・パーティ編成（合併・分割・キック）の機能
Party Structure (Combine, Divide, Kick) feature
・アイテム分配のルールを決められる
Can decide on how the item loot will be distributed
などについてですが、開発チームでも必要であるという認識はもっており実装に向け引き続き検討を行っています。ただし、パーティ編成に関してもアイテムの分 配ルールについてもバトル改修にかかわってくる部分になります。そのためバトル改修後の実装になってしまうことはご了承いただければと思います。
The dev team also knows these type of features are needed and are looking into this. But please understand that these party structure or loot distribution rules involves repairing battles, therefore it will be released (worked on) after the battle modifications.
