Rabanastre loot also NPCs for quite a lot.. which means probably everyone is going to roll to do the donation "content".. good luck getting anything from there I guess.

Not a fan of this system. Lost out on a pair of boots that were a great upgrade for me to the tank... and the tank doesn't even have a MNK or SAM leveled at all, so he can't even use them.


Terrible system and if their intent was to get people to run it more well they failed. I just recently started up my sub a week from 4.3 after taking a few months off, bought three months straight and I already feel ripped off. I'm now a casual, no hardcore raids even though I pugged through deltascape to V4S farm in 4.1. With enough time in a day to really play for 2 hrs, if I have the time, Ridorana was gonna make the bulk of my gameplay since I love FFXII, FFT and the lore but after going through it twice I just rolled on something I can use and now I'm done. Luckily I got the Vaan chest after two runs but after seeing how this game now punishes you for playing a class you like by not allowing you to "NEED" on equipment you need then I just feel like SE is treating me like cattle instead of a customer.
I feel like they have no regard to the gamer and their personal time by adding such egregious RNG and "fluff" content to keep them hooked on an otherwise pretty meh patch with the 4.2-4.4 gear being pretty ugly in my opinion. I guess I'm just tired of being in a group of 8 and seeing double drops for brd or nin when there isn't one in our party. Needless to say this patch woke me up to how SE is cutting content from their games and unfortunately I wasted almost $60 CAD on a game. They clearly learned nothing from Dissida NT, which I thankfully canceled my pre-order after I found out they removed Gabranth.

My husband the ONLY bard in the group rolled a 1 on the bard chest and lost them to another player. Why did you put something into the game that a small minority of players wanted. I have been playing this game since ARR and just based on principle this is not a great decision and has me question your logic.
Hotfix this now!
I hate this system. I want to see a riot and hope they see how stupid this is and change it back in the next small patch.
I have a feeling they might bring back the “old rule” back by next week.
Finger crossed but not gonna count on it.
This is a ridiculous solution to a "problem" that didn't exist, made worse by creating a plethora of new, actual problems at the same time. It's tough to hit a double like that, but somehow SE found a way.
I ran the content as the only BRD in the party. I passed on all of the stuff I don't want or need. Last boss drops a BRD chest piece. I rolled a 1, got beat by someone else who rolled a 4. Womp womp. I can't imagine how many versions of this story are out there, none of them positive or encouraging. I really hate this "feature" already and am struggling to think of any pros.





I'm only going to run Ridorana once a week because of this, don't care if I don't get anything and lose out on my one weekly lot. It was already a huge pain just to hope an item for my class even dropped in a reasonable amount of runs.
Maybe if they increased the number of drops per chest and deleted the dumb belts from the loot table, then maybe you could make a change like this. But making zero positive changes and one big negative change means an overall worse experience, so no thank you.
