[Dev request] Job roulette

I'm not saying I oppose or support, but i'd be very worried if I get a SCH that has SMN's attribute allocations in my roulette...

Nah. Don't worry about that, the difference is actually unnoticeably small.

I don't see how you find it "boring" trying to decide what job to play if you can just pick randomly yourself instead of needing a bonus to do it randomly for you.

Lol, well maybe there should be a minimum requirement of 3 or 4 for the roulette to work (kinda like how expert roulette should have a minimum of 3 or 4 to be considered a roulette). So, your saying I should close my eyes and keep pressing up and down until I'm ready, and then press X. I was looking for more of an official way or macro way of an roulette not an completely gank way of doing it lol.

Then just go tank. Instant queues (so needed) for almost all content.

It seems like a lot of work for something so.. pointless? You can just put your jobs in an online randomizer and have that pick for you. Not many people at all are stuck between 3 or 4 jobs because generally people have their own preference with classes and play styles. Also, they'd have to have 3 or 4 classes at similar levels for this to even work, which again, not many people have as people tend to level one thing at a time.

So your saying it was pointless for them to make a mount roulette and then a flying mount roulette? Also Heavensward has been out for some time now. If it was released like a month ago I would completely agree with you, but at this point wouldn't people have more then 2 lvl 60 characters? On top of that the devs makes it easy to play catch up, so it's possible to make it to i200 in a very short period of time.

It would be nice, this could potentially solve many problems, like, people waiting on specific role to start dungeon. But I don't think SE will consider this necessery. People usually don't have issues deciding which job they want to play next. If SE happen to implent this system, some players - such as yourself would use it, while others who only play 1 job or want to play specific job are not. So.. this would only separate player base even more than today. Unless those are tied to regular expert dungeons. Then I think no one would have any problems and SE should do it, just to help people find each other instead of waiting 20 - 30 minutes on average 5 min wait time lol

Wo wo wo hold on! Your going over board, I wasn't talking revamping the system to make it where you can end up in a dungeon with any random job that you have in your gear set. I talking about something along the lines of http://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/w/image...lette_Icon.png and then maybe que for dungeon or whatever.

Can we please get a job roulette kinda like mount roulette, but it only picks on what's in the equipment sets, or has someone already made a macro of this?

Step 1: Find an empty tissue box. Or any kind of opaque box with a hole in the top.
Step 2: Write down the jobs you're able to play on little slips of paper. Put the paper in the box.
Step 3: Shake the box.
Step 4: Reach in the box and remove one of the slips of paper. Queue as the job you drew out.

There's your roulette.

please no, we'll get Scholars with points in INT, and Summoners with points in MND
