    I DFed this, and had a few people who's dps was less than stellar, most notably a blm with a rotation of fire3 bliz3 fire3 bliz3. We missed a lot of chests due to not being able to meet the dps threshold.

    Maybe this is SE's way of pushing people to learn their jobs in the absence of a parser...

General feeling in my FC is that we LOOOOOOOOOVE Diadem so far. Just tweak some things for us please. One problem we are seeing with the damage threshold issue is DOTs. It seems with that many people on one mob there is an upper limit of how many of a dot can "stick" to a mob... and so jobs like (especially) summoner get screwed on damage contribution because if there are too many summoners on the mob summoner 4 or 5's DOTs get ignored. Don't know this for fact, its just what we are seeing. Is this really happening SE? Other than these issues EM's are way fun.
    Just to clarify, the chest you get is not representative of your contribution. You either get credit and the mob drops a chest of some sort or you don't.

    I really like the diadem. And i use the df only for several reasons.

    Of course it is frustrating if you dps'ed like crazy and in the end there is no chest... And yes i think it should be fixed...

    What i really dont like is the "me, me, me" thinking of some players... They refuse to let a class get an upgrade in gear (not everyone is doing Alex savage - me included) because they believe the +1-3 points for their pegasus is more important. I gladly pass if the group decides to use greed on 210 items only if you can use it with the current class. But there will always be the one person who doesnt care at all... And since we cannot vote kick in the diadem, more lazy and selfish ppl will use the rules in there for their own profit only.

    No, I play with 3/4 fc member and we always get chest. You just need to know how and when to dps.

    And ? Did you know that you can NEED Item if you make a full party ? It's not that hard when you are 7 to find a random last Pu. You can even LootMaster if you want.

    I got the problem with a fc alliance, i am sure they can nicely play Job and have good dps, so i think have too much people can also ruin it, because some party was shooting not get loot .
    You need to dps correctly but also not have too much party in the same area.
    In this case we was certainly 7 party at Dino island, so V and Star HP never go down as fast XD.
    still we need to DPS the higher we can to get the loot, healer should clearic stance when it's possible and all, but when there a lot of people it seem harder to get credit.
    I think maybe there a Limit of Loot for every party, but it's speculation
    If it's the case you can have a good average dps, but out of 7 party maybe somes have higher dps and then you don't loot.
    So i think farm area with so much Party can be realy frustrating.
    At least when you don't get loot with your Party, don't disband there a 2 hours cooldown, go farm somewhere else
