Alexander token loot system using DF. How does it compare to COIL loot system. Math?

Gah, Garlyle, I missed your previous post and I feel like an idiot. Thanks for pointing out my very stupid and amateur statistics mistake.

The main point I was trying to make is that those everyone rolls numbers are the norm right now because very few running Alexander right now are going to opt out on most of the pieces.

I'd question that assumption. Now that we know the drop tables, and know things like "Only Floor 4 is capable of dropping Armor Tokens" and other parts of the distribution, I think a lot of players are already narrowing in on which pieces they need from which floor in order to complete a set ASAP (Ideally arranged you can have a full set after 5 weeks); or are prioritizing parts to be as strong as possible for Alexander (Savage), etc etc

Or there's just specific parts they want for glamour. ...You get the idea.

Though I don't doubt there'll always be some players who just roll on whatever and are happy with whatever too, and there's definitely plenty that will be doing that at first, so yeah, it's all a variable range based on situation.

My math shows PLDs and MNKs clearing t13 in full Ironworks because they didn't have any other option

The only thing worse than the Coil drop system was getting nothing at all

Oh...

I think that token from alexander should be guaranteed after you clear floor. I dont see a point to farm it or clear it more than once a week. Its just midless to hope for some RNG luck to win token against 7 others. Its also boring and non challenging to do those fights more than once a week.

I agree with Lunna, you should be rewarded for each turn by a token. That's all. You still need to farm around 15 tokens to get the whole stuff you need, sounds like enough farm for me. If they really wanted to add RNG to that, the RNG could be in what kind of token loot when you complete a turn but when the turn is completed, everyone should get the token. There is no use to add some more RNG to that...
