ffxidb is not really a reliable source for 'of era' drop information given that it collects data of current retail.
Fafnirs drop rates are more in line with what FFXIClopedia has for him currently with some minor adjustments give or take to each item.
Is there any indication that SE has changed Fafnir's loot pool? If there isn't, I think ffxidb should be considered reliable era information.
The only change I know of is that Wyrm Beard was removed after era. I don't see why they would change anything else after era, especially not raising drop rates, since demand for all these drops would only go down over time.
Another possible source of information:
http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Fafnir_(Final_Fantasy_XI)
It looks like old information since it still lists Wyrm Beard in drops.
One important thing that doesn't match Kupo:
"One Abjuration will always drop, each of the four with an equal chance of generating in the pool. There is a random chance for a second abjuration to drop, including the same abjuration as the first."
and less significant but still maybe different than what Kupo currently has:
"Multiple Synthesis Materials can drop with the exception of Dragon Heart, of which only one may drop."
All of these sources give pretty similar drop rates and are all considerably higher than what we've seen so far on Kupo. I'm not sure if it's the custom TH affecting drops or an issue with how the loot slots are handled, but the drop rates are currently way too low.
Update:
In 19 kills since the relaunch, we've gotten 0 a.feet, 1 hrotti, 0 balmungs. Full drops recorded on the spreadsheet. Drop rates.xlsx
A list of estimated rules, drop rates and drop groups would be great

Steps to reproduce the issue:
Any additional information: The drop rates for Fafnir are just ridiculously low compared to what era was. In 16 kills, we've gotten 3 Aegishjalmars, 1 Andvaranauts, 1 nhead, etc. Our last three kills, all after the relaunch, have yielded crafting materials only.
