    RNG is fine but wish it's RNG from the jobs that's actually in the PT, at least give us that.

    As for OP, I run CT as MNK and I hardly see MNK stuff, I see lots of healer and BRD stuff, so it's totally random imo.

    I see tank, bard and monk drops most often.

    healer and mage are rarest.

    dragoon is in between.

    What I find (empirically, obviously, no way this would stand up to mathematical scrutiny) is that each person has a certain "luck," where they usually only see certain drops. Get a group of people together, and the person with the "strongest" luck determines the drops. For example, right after launch my buddy and I spent quite a while in Brayflox. I don't think he's ever seen any mage gear drop there, ever. Conversely, my runs without him feature a fair amount of mage and tank gear. Similarly, in all my Ifrit runs between 1.0 and ARR, I've never seen Ifrit Bow drop. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen *any* primal bow drop. Seems like primals drop everything but bow and claws for me (because those are the ones I'd want).

It's a complete joke that the two melee classes has a 90% drop chance on every boss in the place. If nothing Else why mot make a boss drop all the healer stuff, one drop tank, and the other two split dps drops. I mean that way you could see a healer item in under 30 hours...
    Second CT run of the week for me dropped 3 healer pieces and one caster piece. I needed one of the healer pieces.
    Last week, second CT run of the week, got healer piece...
    The week before, first CT run of the week, got healer piece...

    RNG is RNG. You had bad luck. I even heard from a dragoon how he did 50+ runs without a single Onion piece dropping.

    It's just luck.
    I spended ages looking for my brd gear and just healer and tank would drop, from times to times caster.
    Now I finally decided to look for caster and all that drops is drg and mnk ûu

    I'd be more inclined to believe it were luck if not for the fact that I actually had a guy tell me how sad it was that I could predict the drops during a run with me. I wouldn't exactly call that luck, and when it's to the point that you can predict the drops I wouldn't call it random either. It literally feels like the drop system in ct is designed to give drops based on the party, items that drop being selected based on what class isn't in your party.

    As far as going in not looking for a specific piece, since I'm the coil group 1 whm in my fc most of my myth gets spent on healer gear because my luck with coil drops is almost non existent. I play two classes, those being whm and blm and since I've had to dedicate all of my myth so far to my whm, ct is the only way I can farm better gear for my blm outside of hoping that the smn and blm in my coil group don't need the pieces that drop and noone else needs them for their secondaries. Sure, I could roll on the drg gear, but I'm not a drg and I'm not going to level one just because the devs want to play favorites.
