I got a bunch of weapons and a couple of pieces of gear within the first 5-6 battles, but haven't gotten anything in a long while since then.
which zone and which weapons/gear? Ru'aun and Reisenjima
Hammerfists, Enchufla, Nixxer, and Queller Rod from Ru'Aun
Herc.legs, Chrionic feet, Odyss. Chestplate, and Merlinic Hood (< got just now) from Reisenjima
(Plus some accessories already exclusive to the Domain NMs).

Nynja: Valorous Ft, Solstice, Merlinic Hn, Akademos
Kehhiko: Iris, Herc Ft, Gish, Sanctity, Shijo, Izdubar
Vermy: Eschite Ore, Sanctity
Chiyio: 1 Eschite Ore
Endlich: 1 Eschite Ore
Lythrial: Solemnity, Sanctity, Herc Boots, Izdubar Mantle
Rhomphaia
Tagalong: IchiGKT, Sanctity, Espiritus
I'd like to say the better geared chars are getting better loot, but Lythrial and Tagalong are BLU's in Jhakri and offhanding Tamaxchi (aka, very poorly geared) without any gearswaps and they've gotten the most. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Doesn't seem like abj drops from Naga Raja. Just weapons and eschalixirs.

I've done literally 30-40 of these without a single drop outside of what the mobs normally drop.

Just got a Herc Helm on a fight where Quetz never even loaded...literally ran around trying to unload other player models to get Quetz would spawn so I could engage it, and got loot.

Serious note were those ores from every zone or just some? I've only been doing reisin so far and like 13 armor pieces in and no ore :(

Eschites only come from Zi'Tah and Ru'Aun. Can't recall if Zi'Tah gives Vulcanites, but the other two definitely don't.

Got Merlinic Legs and a BLM staff so far (after six hours), aside from Sanctity Necklace and other accessories. The drop rates are low, but at least there's a chance. Also, while we do this we get credit towards vorseals and silt/beads. SE finally gave us the motivation to do this a lot, so I'd be happy with one body piece out of this campaign but not expecting any miracles.

Go a job like BLU, THF, COR, etc, use multihit weapons and spam crit WSs like CDC or Evis.

I've been spamming this, since I'm trying to grab some decent gear to catch up since I've been gone a while. So far:
Merlinic head, Merlinic/Odyssean/Valorous bodies, Ody/Herc hands, 2xHerc and Chironic legs, Valorous feet, 2xMidnights, 2xCompensator, Espiritus
I haven't gotten a single gear drop from Zi'tah and I've been doing this all day.

I did 25 Zi'tah kills, got eval on all but one (didn't even see the dragon spawn, couldn't see people moving, and next thing I know Domain Invasion was over)
I only got eschalixirs nq and +1, one eschalixir +2, one Eschite Ore and that's it.
25 is a small sample number, but says something about how the item droprate certainly isn't particularly high, at least in Zi'tah.
Maybe it's higher in Reisenjima? In LS we had lotsa people reporting items from Reisen DI.

did a bunch during JST prime last night.
2nd Quetz fight I couldn't see or target to fight it but got off a single Ramuh Enthunder Ward before it died in 15 seconds and got a Sanctity Necklace and a Valorous Mail for my efforts.
Also never got anything worthwhile in ZiTah so put me in the 'ZiTah don't drop ***' camp.

How many times have you done it? That's some crazy good luck. Also does the Spoils vorseal effect this? I didn't think so. But I feel like I can't possibly just be that unlucky haha.
I've done over 70 now and have Valorous feet and Chironic legs.

Seems more like some bug from SE as the campaign announcement said that all the 3 dragons would give additional spoils.

No one's reported any unique drops in Zi'tah so far. Probably a bug since the notes specifically state that the campaign is affecting all 3 dragons.

I think spoil vorseal increase the slots of drops, but i think the evaluation also do that so one kinda of annul the other. When i do quetz with few people for 5 mins fights, i was getting like 5+ stones/pouches. Now barely 3.
Also i noticed that the gear drop doesnt comes just from first item like hmp/vw armor, so i think the more drops, the more chance to get gear.
By Calinar 2017-01-23 02:49:44
One account has 11/11 spoils: gets 5 items most fights (5 stones/lixirs) Gets a 10-20k eval. (2/100+ good items)
2nd account has 2/11 spoils: gets 2-3 items (gear weapons and eschite) 0 eval every time. (17/100+ good items)
Random is random is random as ***.

I'm mostly getting 2-3 items per fight with 15-30k eval. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if it really is just that random.
My mule gets 0 eval and I dont feel like taking it fight to fight, so I let it stay at Reisen and it has two items in 20 fights or so with 0 eval.

I think the best approach for those domain invasion is to take it easy, grab a zone, grab some mats, and just craft while waiting to next respawn. That way you benefit from 2 campaigns at same time.
EDIT: though it seems better to stop crafting while fighting as my char freezed 2 times already for crafting while quetz was there.

I have found I can't cycle through all 3 dragons, mainly because the Zi'tah dragon is less popular and takes a bit longer to kill. I'm happy with cycling between Reisenjima and Ru'aun though, Acc++ and Refresh will be more beneficial to me than Regen.

Just to confirm...at this point has anyone seen anything other than the following as extra loot:
Ru'Ann: T2 upgradable weapons / Eschite Ore (no Abju, no Warder drops, no AA drops)
Reisen: Any upgradable armor (no upgradable weapons, or anything else)
Seconding that Reisen/RuAnn are feasable, but adding in a third dragon doesnt work. HP Misareaux and use warp ring to get there, and use a tele-ring to get to Reisen.

Probably what people expected, but you can get gear from the corresponding zone from Domain Invasion this week. So far we've seen Reisen T1 gear and Ru'aun T2 gear. Curious if you can get drops from the highest tier of NMs in the zones. Good opportunity for returning or new players to start acquiring some Escha equipment.
Also, we're bringing it back to the ol' Besieged days!
