    I'm not personally seeing the issue, here. At least with the coffers.

    I saw someone mention "make it 1 per party", but what difference does that make?

    With 3 coffers in 24 people, the math gets more complicated (and I'm not talking 3 divided by 24), but ultimately remains the same. Long story short, if everyone rolls on everything, the odds of you getting at least one coffer is roughly 12%. Literally. That's just a miniscule fraction short of 1 in 8.

    So my question becomes... why the complaints on that front? The coffer is something you can run the raid as many times as you want, and you're guaranteed what amounts to a 1 in 8 chance every single time you run it. For a coffer containing nothing less than the full outfit. What other content offers that kind of forgiving loot system?

    If it's per party you could run it 8 time with the same party and you are sure to have 1 chest per person in your party.
    It's a lot easier to gather the same 8 people to run 8 times the raid than to gather the same 24 people.

    If it's per group that 1 of 8 then becomes easier with a premade, 50 runs turn into 8.

    I had hoped it would be the model of clothes 9S wears on male toons since the raid gear changes based off that. I had no idea it’s still a frilly dress until I tried it on after seeing someone else wearing it.

    I agree with Fhaerron from the first page on his/her suggestions. I always pass on everything except for what i really want and wait a bit (not like 10 mins or more that some people do) and sometimes it helps.
    At least in my mind it does, lol :/

    Since ppl who already got it, can reroll on it, we basically roll against 23 ppl everytime, every weeks. So the chance of getting it won't increase with time.
    Hopefully most people that already got it, won't reroll on it.

    Why would people roll again and something they have and there’s no reason to have two of? I got it and will pass going forward. I’m not going to go out of my way to be a jerk, especially when there is zero benefit. I think your chances will only get better. Eventually we will hit a point where hardly anyone wants it, like any hot item.

    You answered your own question regarding why someone would roll again. There are people who don’t need a reason other than this! Just look at people who roll on cards after it’s already in their collection - I don’t think the MGP for trade-in is worth possibly keeping someone else from having the card but others do.
