Duty finder + new loot system = really sucks.
Duty finder + new loot system = really sucks.
You know how I know this system is currently flawed? Well try doing 12-14 runs of each Floor and having a roll of about 1-30 each on each item. A2 was my lucky run this week with a roll of 89 on a bolt. I have fallen to the wrath of RNGesus, and i must have really pissed him off this week.

I can finally attest to this token system being garbage. I spent my evening doing a dozen A1 runs for either a Pedal or Bolt. I started off with a light party consisting of some static members needing their loot too. The first 2 runs they all got their loot, after an additional 6 runs of me not getting anything they bailed, so I did an additional 4 runs in DF by myself. Whenever a Bolt or Pedal dropped I rolled below 30, every single time, and when i finally gave up on rolled on a chain that is useless to me, 98. Honestly I just feel disgusted to be gutted so hard by RNG.
Not counting the many, many wipes due to the over abundance of french players on my server. I did about 10 kills of A1 today and 5 kills of A3. Half of them dropped the loot I needed and I lost every single roll to randoms.
I know square-enix need a solution to people waiting for weeks for their loot to drop, but forcing people to compress those weeks worth of runs in to a single week just to ensure they don't miss out on a weekly drop, is beyond stupid. It forces static teams in to lengthy grinds to ensure all their team members get their loot, leaving less raid time for actual progression in savage or ex primals. If those players instead decide to farm outside their static team they're met with a new team every time with seven new people after the same loot. That's before you factor in the bad players who lead to failed runs.
The solution to a bad RNG grind isn't an even worse RNG grind, you got it right with Ravana and Bismark why not continue that system in Alexander.

Ravana loot system is on point. Drops gear, and tokens if your item doesn't drop.
