Is there any issue with loots since last patch?

Everybody said RNG already, can we give that a rest now? Thanks for your participation to the discussion but everyone else beat you to it already...

This is a legitimate concern and it is potentially only going to get continually worse under the current system in dungeons and raids as more and more jobs are introduced. I'm not going to sit here and do the napkin math but since ARR has launched I believe there have been a total of 6 new jobs (Ninja, Dark Knight, Astrologian, Machinist, Samurai and Red Mage), so the percentage chance of seeing a piece of gear for your job has gone down considerably over the course of only two expansions.

Would it really kill them to change the chests from 2 to 4 drops now? So many folks (myself included) are leveling alts so the excuse of letting people get gear too fast is a poor one at best, especially in things like 24-man where you are limited to 1 drop a week. I shouldn't have to run Rabanastre double digit times a week or more until a piece for my Machinist that I need finally drops.

I share the OPs concern and I believe it is a valid one that deserves more than all of the lemmings shouting RNG, like people have never heard that one before. OP even went out of their way to mention that they understand there should be some kind of grind for it but that it feels excessive and still, folks felt the need to chime in like that. It's absurd.

People keep bringing it up because that's literally all it is. This has been in place since the start...and even long before XIV was around. Can it suck? Yes. Can it be frustrating? Double yes. But the fact remains that this is just how MMOs work. If it's not gear, it's a mount. Or a minion. Or a number of other things. Maybe I've been an MMO junky for so long that I'm just indifferent, but I don't really see how this is a huge issue. That said, adding another drop or 2 here or there isn't a bad idea. Not sure why they put shards in place of gear in some areas with Skalla, that confused me.

Dark Knigh share Armor with PLD,WAR. So outside Weapon no the drop rate did no change
AST with WHM,SCH so no it hasn't changed the drop rated.
MCH with BRD.
SAM with MNK
RDM with BLM, SMN

So the only class the change the drop rate was Ninja like 4 years ago.
