Let's say I wanted a tank ring from Alphascape, then. There's a 1/2 chance in getting it if it drops since you're rolling against another tank. Easy. Two chests drop, though, with a chance to drop any ring from any type, and let's assume that a ring will definitely drop, so 1/5. Your chances are then 1/10 to get a ring whatsoever, which are already worse odds than trying to go 1/8 for your ring in Edengate. Yoshida brought this up as well.

Q28:
Due to the loot changes in Eden (Savage), we're seeing disagreements between pickup groups over the loot. For someone like me without a static, I'm worried that I won't be able get any gear aside from exchange items. Do you have any plans to adjust the loot system?

A28:
On the other hand, there’s also the chance that you win all the loot, so it’s quite difficult. In terms of sheer probability, the current system should come out on top. I think it’s at least better than having items drop for a role no one plays, so I think for now I’d like to leave things as is.

"The current system should come out on top". You get just as many chests running it in a static, and statics are more likely to pass on loot they dont need. The current system favours you in a pug if you are lucky and still want other loot for your other classes. But no, it doesn't put you on top if you are gearing your main. Its very very basic math.
