Oh no 3 whole runs for something you wanted. What a torture!

Coffers should be added once the next part of that raid is released - definitly not while its current content. Simply handing everyone a coffer at the end of a run would pretty much invalidate all of the chests before the last boss (why roll on something if you can grab the coffer?) while also ensuring a decline in participants (why run it more than once if you get a coffer?).
Its not like anyone actually "needs" this gear as an upgrade - sure, it can be an upgrade (specially for secondary jobs) but there are other ways to gear up. Not getting a drop from an alliance raid isnt going to hinder anyones progress. Its pretty much mainly for glamour - so I think coffers once the content is "outdated" is fair.
Sorry if it wasn't clear but I was talking about individual piece coffers, simular to those you receive from MSQ quests. I.e. glove, boots, legs, chest and hat coffers not entire armor sets in 1 boxCoffers should be added once the next part of that raid is released - definitly not while its current content.

Once a raid is no longer current, we should be able to use the raid's coins to buy the gear from a vendor. You still have to run the raid a few times to get enough coins, but if RNGsus hates you, you'll still get what you're after eventually.
Been trying to get that Striking chest piece from Rabanastre and it has been painful.
Definitely could use some sort of already in game token/coffer for old raid content.
Either way, you will still run multiple times until you can get a single piece at that point.
I'd love a token shop for glams/minions from older alliance raids. Just getting these to pop in the queue system is like pulling teeth unless it's crystal tower. It'd be lovely, having done some of these raids literally hundreds of time, to be able to just buy a gearpiece I want on a whim rather than commit to running it another 20 times on the same job for one piece of gear.
On another note, while we're discussing alliance raids... can we give more incentives for people to run Void Ark/Ivalice? There are like, half a dozen parts of the game shoving kids back to crystal tower and it clogs up the roulette every damn day. If the queues actually popped, I wouldn't mind farming them for gear at all tbh
