    All loot has an equal chance to drop, regardless of how many classes can/should use it. As such, the

    BLM: competes with SMN
    WHM: competes with SCH
    SCH: competes with WHM
    BRD: competes with no one
    MNK: competes with no one for armor, competes with DRG for jewelry

    I think they may make it Monk armour, Dex accessories but that seems silly. On top of the fact that the Gun class is probably full on Dex so it's a hard guess to make.

    Tanks can't roll <NEED> on STR accessories so that isn't a factor in the loot pooling.

    If you're going by that then the MNK/DRG competition point is invalid as well. So assuming that's not the case, Kitru is talking primarily about non-need parties and then my point stands.

    Anyway, as it's come out in the recent interview, even SE is undecided at this point, which means they're considering both options.

    High Allagan X of Slaying can be needed on by both Monk and Dragoon, but not by tanks. It's pretty recent that both melee had to share accessories, but I'm sure that's what SE will do going forward to alleviate some coding (as miniscule as it may be). In that regard, which I'm sure the point was actually meant for, the your point is irrelevant. Tanks are supposed to spec VIT, not roll on accessories that have none.

    Hmm, first part I wasn't aware of; thanks. 2nd part... "tanks are supposed to spec VIT..." ... you did notice I said offtanks right? If so, thanks for the laugh. If not, well, yeah, I said offtanks.
