They already have something similar with the 100% drop for your active class when you beat the last boss in a dungeon, i think it should be possible to modify this a bit.

    As for the non trade, they could make it tradeable within a limited timeframe between the players that where in your group. In WoW its 2h if i remember right where you can trade your loot between the partymembers, after that its soulbound.

    I played shadowlands, so how that happened during Castle Natria Heroic. We were raiding with 20 people, 3 random people would receive loot from the boss. With that rng there was some members that spent 4 weeks without a single loot piece drop his upgrades all came from the weekly chest, oh and they farmed relentlesly M+ too that used the same "brilliant" loot system you want to implement.
    There is positive stuff from WoW that could be implemented in FF, but the loot system ain't one of then.

    I think y'all missing my point, what I'm trying to say is what if with every clear you get 100% of the time a random coffer and a token. While I think its cool that the current system allows for the funneling of resources to the dps for easier clears but thats for statics. What about those that do pugs or whose statics fall apart?

    We already have that. It's called tomestones.

    Its almost like the devs are telling you to socialize and find a static, create a bound with people.

    And what people are trying to tell you is that the drop rate of loot is part of the balance of the entire tier, and that personal loot just swaps one set of problems for another.

    It's not as if savage is the only avenue for good raid gear anyway. There are other pieces you can get that have zero rng. No one is pigeonholed into having just one source of loot.

    We see what you're saying. We just disagree.

    Also personal loot is widely hated in WoW. It hurts statics a lot.

    Alrighty I'll just keep on rolling then. Besides tomestone and crafted gear what other avenues of raid gear is there? I've already gotten all the tomestone gear I need and I've replaced the crafted gear with them.
