We describe a protocol for distilling maximally entangled bipartite states between random pairs of parties from those sharing a tripartite W state, and show that, rather surprisingly, the total distillation rate (the total number of EPR pairs distilled per W, irrespective of who shares them) may be done at a higher rate than distillation of bipartite entanglement between specified pairs of parties. Specifically, the optimal distillation rate for specified entanglement for the W has been previously shown to be the asymptotic entanglement of assistance of 0.92 EPR pairs per W, while our protocol can asymptotically distill 1 EPR pair per W between random pairs of parties, which we conjecture to be optimal. We thus demonstrate a tradeoff between the overall asymptotic rate of EPR distillation and the distribution of final EPR pairs between parties. We further show that by increasing the number of parties in the protocol that there exist states with fixed lower-bounded distillable entanglement for random parties but arbitrarily small distillable entanglement for specified parties.
