Requiem of Sin BC drops (or lack thereof)

[Narse]

Is it common for this BC fight to drop absolutely nothing? The last few times I did this fight we've gotten no items at all from the chest. This happened to coincide with 3 members exiting the fight in order to be on the correct side of Boneyard Gully in order to do ENM afterwards. I would assume it's unrelated, but since we're 100% on drops before doing this and 0% on drops after starting to do this, I figured I would ask for people's experience with this fight and with getting drops.

Basically what I'm looking for is if people have gotten no drops when they complete the fight with the same number of members being inside the fight when it finishes as when it was started, or if people have exited the fight with at least one character before popping the chest and have gotten some kind of drop (dragon bone, whatever). Any information would be appreciated.

Have been duoing this BCNM for a while and have seen 2 empty box so far. We never exit the BCNM before box is opened (obviously no reason to do so). Like all ENMs, it's entirely possible to get an empty chest from this BCNM even though it's not an ENM.

Can also confirm this BCNM drops D cloth.

I've done it like 30 times exiting normally and at least half of the time there is nothing in the chest.

I was helping a friend get a dagger on this.. we did it every sunday for 2 months before we got his drop. Yes, it frequently drops nothing. We did not even see all the possible drops. It is just random man, what you are doing is not causing it to drop nothing. We never exited the fight early.

Yeah, I figured as much but I wanted to just make sure. Thanks for the feedback.

just be sure to spam /l with whatever you like when it drops.

0/8ish, always do X > Wyvern > Y > Z > Rabbit; have gotten no drops 3 times, crap every other time including 2x Z's Tridents (ironic imo since we always kill Z last).

Can anyone who has done like like 75 times help me with the SC aspect of the fight? We roll with zero sleeps really as PLD/RDM (supertank), WAR/NIN, NIN/DNC, RDM/WHM and do pretty well. I've read Kaeko's blog about just taking off when they call for an SC and the THF partner peeling off the adds with RAs; in my experience, I have no idea how this works for him. I usually drop X almost instantly but she will call for SC before the second King's Justice and Y and Z literally will never get off me until I die. We're talking Animated Flourish, Flash, Sentinel...nothing.

Does the SC call not matter regardless of distance, or if the PLD takes the others to the entrance and we fight X in the corner where they pop will they not come to SC? We win every time, it's just sometimes we need to wipe once which is annoying.
