I agree with you. I agree with you so hard right now. They gotta do something before I go insane.

One time I forgot that I unlocked the first Ivalice raid, and I queued up for Duty Roulette...
Never again will I make such a foolish mistake.

Yes, you did Alliance Roulette. I avoid it personally.

Also: lol at it actually being good. That's a real knee slapper.

Have you ever done it minimum item level?

from my recent experience in roulettes, maybe its because of Aglaia being added to the alliance roulette that perhaps changed the rng algorithm for which raids you get but Ive been getting CT less frequently than before.

they really should either:
1) heavily ilv lock it and slap it into MSQ roulette (lota ilv75, st ilv90, wod ilv110) so that the first two raids actually have mechanics (they could keep wod at ilv130 ig) or
2) make it a set of solo instances thereby allowing everyone to once again never fear being bored senseless during their daily alliance

I still don't know why OP doesn't like it.

Probably the same reason as those who do not like it as well. With the exception of World of Darkness (though that does fall flat on its face with the final boss. Did you know she has snake adds?), every boss in the CT raids are just bigger trash mobs that do less mechanics than HW-EW dungeon bosses.

Heck, you could argue they have less mechanics than Ifrit in the story mode trial.

Retool it into a single light party, and nothing of importance would be lost.

You'll still have enough story to lock the cat up inside it's cage.

I mean, most of the bosses do have mechanics. They just melt so fast now that you'll never see them unless the group is sandbagging. Glasya Labolis is especially bad; I haven't seen a group actually have to face the platform mechanic since 3.1.

I've stopped Alliance Raid duty altogether just because this is the same shit that I get every time. I grew tired of idiots purposefully removing gear to scale down just for that. That series of raids needs to be its own duty finder category.
