    I feel like Orchestrion Rolls should be 100% drop rate.

    I still need Deltascape boss theme, Exdeath theme, Sigmascape boss theme, Dancing Mad II and III, and the new dungeon music. And even then, I had to buy Dancing Mad I and some of the other Raid stuff because they never dropped.

    The current drop rate is perfectly fine. Making gil isn't exactly hard in this game if you know what you're doing, so if people urgently want a particular orchestrion roll then there isn't really anything stopping them from just buying it off of the market board. Perhaps not immediately...but when the prices 'settle'. If they don't want to do that, then they're willingly subjecting themselves to the mercy that is RNG.

    Actually the drop rates are low enough that some songs have zero listed on the market on some worlds. You can both be unable to buy, and unable to get the drop yourself even if you dedicate your life to it and run a certain instance every week for months. I'm sure eventually everything will be reasonable to get when they add them to possible retainer venture loot and deep dungeon lockbox loot or something, but that could take a couple of years.

    There is a big barrier to getting some songs at the moment even if that's your main focus in the game and you have all day to farm. For whatever reason they really amped up the rng this year. See pagos shiver emote, copycat minion, speed belt, cassie earring, haku cluster / optical hat. All of these and certain song rolls are such low drop rate that the activities of all the players on a world across hundreds of hours per player farming will only yield enough drops for a very low percentage of players on that world.

    edit: finally got all the songs in game. could have been a lot worse. got lucky on one that isn't on my world marketboard after spamming the instance for half the day

    As far as I'm aware, Upon the Rocks has never been sold on Balmung. Ran the dungeon about 12 times now and never saw a music roll drop.

    Tricksome, meanwhile, is going for 1.4 million.
