Gotta hit the RNG it drops, THEN you gotta hit the RNG it goes to you.
I'm not saying RNG isn't a big part of EQ. Lottery is not. Player agreed "scout roll" and "server-wide raid" is fine if players want to come to an agreement. There will never be an agreement on legacy items. Devs/GMs have to make an executive decision, and the best option is the current list system.
The List (as it is) is the best we have. It's as fair as it gets.

No. the current list system sucks because it severely rewards non classic experience in mass account sharing which was actually
against the rules in classic EQ. You got it all twisted backwards.The current system is far worse than a random one and it.s a billion years from being "fair".
Also most groups when they went to camp mob X for a drop it was usually
RANDOMED amongst the group.
