How about a personal loot system?

[Ultimatecalibur]

I'm apparently really out of the loop with these loot changes, but I keep hearing people talk about it. I've read the patch notes and guess I'm not understanding something? Can you explain what the loot changes are?

Now each of the Savage fights will drop various Edengrace coffers (just like those coffers handed out in ShB quests) that can be opened to give a piece of gear based on the opener's current class.

As the coffers are not role locked, players playing "low gear priority" roles (dps>healers>tanks seems to be the priority I', hearing about) are unlikely to see any raid gear for several weeks as the higher priority roles are given coffers first.

I think it's more common for it to be DPS > tanks > healers, but essentially yes.

Previously, only upgrade items would be routed to DPS first because, well, if that tank or healer piece drops you can't exactly change it. With the coffers, 100% of the loot can be routed to DPS.
