The new system isn't the problem people have. The problem is the fact that it severely punishes people who pug, in that one person can get all the loot. The bigger issue is one person can get unlucky and get no loot for weeks, maybe even none at all. Even if people don't need that loot, they can go in on their off job and, rightfully so, need and get it over someone who hasn't even geared their main job.

I can guarantee Square doesn't view this as a "problem". Anyone who joins party, PUG or Sub or Static, and clears a fight, deserves a fair shake at the rewards that drops. Even if they were carried or died a lot, they contributed the fight in someway that lead to the clear and deserve the chance at the loot.

Anecdotally, my 7/8 static has had to pick up a random healer every week since week 1 and every single week so far, the random healer has walked away with at least 1 item. As a team, this is a loss as that gear no longer contributes to our team's DPS the following week, but it helps that random person and w/e party they join next week. Even though we WANT to vilify these "PUG thieves", we all know we wouldnt have cleared w/o them and they deserve a fair shot at the loot like all of us.

They could change the system that if you need on an item, it becomes the item for the job your playing at that moment. If you greed, you can use it for an alt.

that's not how coffers work. they can't pre-program them.

And why should the less geared player that decided to tackle the content later have a higher chance to get the loot exactly?

I'd argue that they deserve the gear more than my retainer.

That'd be a decent idea for pugs though. Effectively having the coffer auto open in your inventory there and then. If you can't use the item, you probably shouldn't be rolling Need on it.
