I swear the person who starts the party gets way better mats. Has anyone else noticed this?

Not really, I have tested this with a friend. He would just idle, staying away from the action while I did all the killing and in the end even though he didn't strike a single blow he actually got more and better materials than me. Also I was the party creator.

It's just so unfair!
I just hate it when I'm doing the levels leading up to Vanaduke and I'm getting ecto drops while the others are getting flame souls. There's shouldn't even be mats less than 3 stars in tier 3!

Not true at all. Yesterday I was in FSC and I was the 3rd person and I got a Flame Soul, Primal Ore, and a Reaper Rib. That's 3 5* mats and everyone else got nothing really.

Eh, During one run that I made, Nearo got all the good stuff, I got the other stuff. However, this other run, I got all the good stuff and he got the remainders.
Items are pretty much random I think.
