Should Alexander hard drop highest item level gear?

I made an silly exaggeration because the concept of comparing it to killing a beast-man and rabbits was silly.

But you're missing the original point of the "Silly" (I kinda like it 'cause it makes sense) arguement. And that was that the players clearing coil DO need the gear. To make their runs easier. To make the next step of each fight more consistent. To progress. Just because you don't need it to clear, doesn't mean it isn't something you need to progress.

Just like it would be silly not to give gear for those completing dungouns. They need gear to clear dungouns. But does it need to be -just as strong- as the gear that comes from raiding?
