Loot Trends [RANT]or[DEV HELP PLEASE]

[SooChe]

We as a static have been clearing SCOB for the past 3 months. All we see are tank/brd loot... Our other jobs have been using sands/oil to upgrade their gear.

Anyone sees any loot trends? We usually clear SCOB 10 hours after reset. The multiple weapons that drop for our alt is getting frustrating! No dragoon/monk loot for the past 2 mths. RNG may prolong the life of the game, but seriously.... is RNG gonna make us feel defeated....?

DEVS, please look into this, or if anyone can advise your theory on chest looting..

5 Crooks, four of those in a row. Sorry, but it's working properly. RNG is RNG and won't always work even remotely close to what you want.

[SooChe]

But, anyone else suffer from this?

[Bushido_Brown]

Everyone does. Same loot drops that no one needs, or everyone already has, with 1 random piece out of the 8 that someone is actually looking for.

Realistically, like ~10% (if even that) of the population will have received every loot drop from the binding coils before the next installment, when the gear is then obsolete and you can then farm the previous turns.

RNG works great when it's in our favor... which is almost never.

Yeah SCOB loves tanks and healers. Been clearing for close to 2 months and only one DRG piece has dropped.

[Grotesque]

MNK/DRG loot all the time for us. Healer stuff is very rare except the belt which dropped 7 times now.

RNG my love...
Change ScoB lockout system.
Problem solved.

[Staris]

In theory it should be skewed toward healer/tank drops rather then pure random,
Because you normally have 2 tanks and 2 healers.

However, who knows what they actually set up.

Tank (lots and lots and lots), Healer, BRD and occasionally melee items. That's all I am seeing in SCOB. I am doing it since two months without ever having seen a BLM drop. Not a single one although I am in T8 now. It was the same with the 1st Coil where I was iLevel 90 before I saw the first (and by then already obsolete) Coil item for a BLM. I know it is RNG and I know other BLM's who are decked out already so it seems to be my personal hell. I friggin hate the random loot system. I am starting to use Oil and seals for my other chars now because I do not want to be 110 this time before I get my 1st loot. This is just completely unrewarding. Weeks of wipes and training and then...nothing but the win itself. Enough for a few times but each new win without an item for me makes me go Behemoth Gnaaaargh mode.

We had a blm to replace our smn who left. The smn was decked out but the new replacement who ran coil at the same time as us was all sands and oil geared. But since he joined us,he got decked out as well, and even got the high allagan staff. We wonder if it is due to the party composition or raid timings. We run 11pm GMT8 and one shot all the turns without breaks.
