Good point. I think the PQ system is fine: the more you contribute the better your odds become at getting a top roll, but there's still enough of a random factor that anyone can win. If the loot went to whoever contributed the most. then I think there would be louder complaints about how this contribution is calculated. How do you measure healing vs. dps vs tank maintaining aggro vs cc, etc. Perhaps because they are called Public QUESTS people expect a definite reward after a definite effort, like with quests, but PQs are more of a variation on instances, and instances are mainly about doing a lot of work just to get a chance at a totally random roll.
