What I am suggesting is that chests would drop like they do now, and you get to pick from them what you want.
However there would only be a limited amount of things you could pick, I dunno how many maybe 2?
Maybe more? I am not completely sure.

If you want the weapon or chest from P4S for example then you'd need to not take something from the previous floors, if you took something from every floor up until P4S then you'd be out of loot for the week and you'd only get the book per usual.
And the piece you need might not even drop either so there'd still be some level of RNG but not the extremely shitty feeling one there is now.
Like wow so much fun to roll bellow 20 every single clear of P4S when the weapon + twining is the last thing I need /s...
That's not fun to me it makes it feeling miserable especially if you're not just going in and one-shoting which PF isn't a guarantee for either.
This weeks P4S took two days for me I tried on reset day and had bad luck with groups and today I had bad luck too until the last one, then PLD weapons drop and I roll 16 on weapon chest...

It's just not enjoyable, and there are people with the current system who will get lucky and get geared out insanely fast too.
What I am suggesting wouldn't even necessarily be faster at all, it'd just be less RNG and more consistent.
Oh don't get me started on this tier of savage. A fraction of the community did clear it in a month, but running a static here for the "new to FFXIV end game" crowd and seeing how PF has gone, this was a blood bath. It was trivial getting people through 1 and 2 but P3S was seven layers of hell and I still got to get folks through this one. Haven't even gotten to do p4s because of it.
