Alexander loot systems sucks :/

Current EX primal loot distribution is better.

With this it feels like you have to run each turn 4 times per week compared to each turn once from before...

You're leaving out the part where all 8 people in the static can potentially get the drop that they want in a total of 4 runs per week versus two people possibly getting a drop that they don't already have and can Need on.

This is definitely better.

All 8 people can get a fraction of a drop, if you grind it by going at least 4 times a week per floor versus two whole drops plus a token you mean. Too grindy, and exhausts the content too fast (1 month)

Well the content only needs to last 2 weeks for the hardcore grinding crowd, so a month actually isn't too bad. And for the less grindy crowd it'll last significantly longer.

The issue I've seen in DF usually is that once the more hardcore grinding crowd leaves though to do other things, it leaves the content with a far higher amount of players who can't necessarily clear it. Those people would have been carried through with the abilities of the more raid centric crowd... Kinda like when WoD came out and the loot lock out happened. Clears weren't a debate. 99% of all WoDs cleared. After loot lock out was lifted? ...Suddenly..and honestly, quite mysteriously, the chances of clearing WoD without wiping at least 2-3 times per boss and nearly an entire exchange of certain parties, only to be abandoned at Cerb... That was more common.

Just saying, once the raid centric crowd leaves, I think clears will become harder to obtain in DF.

My issue with the system is like other peoples. You have to fight 7 others all the time for your loot unless you do it in a static. But you still have to fight 7 others in your static. Even if you stay for everyone's loot, if someone has to go (which happens), you're now fighting again. On top of that, sometimes things don't drop and your static doesn't want to grind out something just for one person to be picky. Hell, even PFs that mention not to leave until everyone gets their loot get people who still leave when drops get picky.

It's a nice system on paper but much like WoD, it becomes drop dependent and eventually the ability to clear it will become questionable.
