    Recommendation for Void Ark Coffer Drops

    I've seen many duplicate items drop the floor in the same raid instance. Please create a system where if an item drops to the floor ("Unable to obtain ABC.") the system will remove that item from the possibility of rolls in future coffers of that instance. Each boss has a loot table of 21 items (sourcing from Lodestone) -- it's extremely annoying to see multiple IDENTICAL pieces drop the floor.

    ...so if a party all decides "Eh, not interested in healing pants" then it never drops from that instance ever again?

    But in case you lose roll on the piece you want, you still have chance and more chance to win the roll if it drops again ^^;
    Actually it encourages ppl stay in the party.

    ...the logical assumption here is they meant from the same instance, as in, healer hat hit the floor on boss 2? Won't show up again on boss 3. I think double drops (or more!) is silly to begin with - would rather have a modified RNG where a given piece will only appear once (or not) in a run.

    I would just prefer if there will just drop loot for Jobs, which are in the group.
    I know some friends who are chasing for a single lot drop for there job since the patch and get always loot no one in all allinces can "need" and this multipe times on the same run.
    Just yesterday they got a complete Ninja-Set, but there was no single Ninja in the parties.

    The multidropping of loot is a minor problem and much players will wish back this feature after the weekly lootlock will be removed.

    What purpose would this serve? Serious question. It wouldn't matter if the gear was "unable to obtain". Your entire system is flawed because each boss in Void Ark drops specific loot from a pool much like all of the CT raids. X boss will drop A, B, and C gear, Y boss will drop M, N, O gear, Z boss will drop W, X, Y gear.

    None of the bosses will drop every single piece of gear from the pool in the raid.

    I think they actually changed it this time so that anything can drop from any boss. It stops people from leaving after the first boss if their drop doesn't drop.

    Actually, each piece can drop from 2 bosses. And as in LotA and ST (but not WoD), if a boss can drop a piece for a role, (let's say healer's belt), it can drop the corresponding piece for any role (so every belt). It also prevents full belts runs which were ruining everything in WoD.
