Have a question about the Eberron Setting?
Ask a Loremaster.
Mock him all you want MT but it's not changing the fact that this raid loot system isn't working and needs to be tweaked. And soon.

You are right MT, it is bad rolls.
But the difficulty is up and the odds of a good roll are down. The equates to less loot overall. Good, bad or other I'm not going to argue here. But its less overall loot, and I think the devs did it on purpose.
And I'm sure that Tiny Tim likes noone telling him that the item with his name on it can't be used by his build. There are Pros and Cons across the board. Opinions will vary always. Gripe and cry when you see 9 pieces of loot on one run. So no loot in 3 runs? One good roll session makes up for that easily. Before? you could get beat on a 99 and still be empty-handed.

Well, no.. never happened to me either, but I heard MANY a story about the cleric who couldn't roll on a SoS, or the fighter who couldn't roll on the dragon helm, etc etc. So I know it WAS happening, and this change took that away, and less people are getting screwed on that angle, so I am fine with that.
If a dex rogue takes the SoS, that is his choice. IMO, it's a selfish choice, but his choice nonetheless. I'd rather see people taking their own loot, then having some obnoxious leader declare what's right for what builds.
It's not perfect, no, but I think it's better. Perhaps further tweaking will get it where it needs to be to suit ALL players. (Have you ever tried to make EVERYONE happy - not that easy)

Oh god, another one of these threads?
I don't think it's perfect, but I far prefer this loot system, personally.
So, this new raid loot system encourages more raiding....At least the raids that require little or no flagging....So, people are going to start grinding the Reaver and the Titan more and more. As is, Von and DQ raids are a real GRIND to complete and flag for....There is almost no point. I neither like or dislike the new loot system.
I like the new system, and I used to short man raids.

Hmm, best one I have witnessed yet, Reaver 12 people, 5 Pieces.
turbine must love ventilated bracers and the visors from titan cause if you are lucky enough to get raid loot in current system your usually gonna get something for the poorer end of the raid loot list. i have done 23 riads since update went live. 15 of those 12 manned on elite. only 2 raids had more than 2 items a reaver had 7 a titan had 5. i have had 2 items drop 2 times.i have had 1 item drop 1 time.the OTHER 18 raids had 0 raid items for whole party. 18 raids out of 23 dropping 0 is completely ****ed up.
