Having said that, if SE wanted to affect tanks, couldn't they just drop less tank gear instead of screwing with individual lots?
Make it a 6% drop rate instead of an 8% drop rate and you just increased the number of runs a tank needs by 33% to get their gear compared to others.
Besides, if you want good lots you just need to be standing next to a ninja when you lot. They have the treasure hunter trait that follows them because they are the spiritual successor to XI's thief.
