    The way i understand it, (based on the translation), you'll be able to participate in rolling, 3x a week per dungeon. So for example if a melee item drops then u can choose to roll on it or pass depending on whether u want the item or not and you'll only be allowed to roll on three items within a week.(this is my opinion in regards to how it might work) Others have speculated that items would automatically drop randomly three times, i honestly hope this is not the case since this is one of the issues with the current version; where you would do primal runs get weapons u can't use or pass, or doubles that end up dropping to the floor. In a game where your allowed to level every class, a system side random lottery is the worst possible route they can take in regards to loot.

    Does anyone have the untranslated JP version of this specific question?

    I agree that I'm not too fond of that idea, unless it recognizes you already have an item and removes it as a possible drop. Like if you already have an Ifrit Cane in your inventory you won't get another. I just hope they clarify what "participate in a random lottery" means. Are they bringing back the party loot pool from XI? That had plenty of pros and cons to argue over. ._.
