We're talking about roulette though? Why require 565 ilvl for roulette
Alliance Raid Now iLvl Locked, Why??

10-04-2023, 10:02 AMDubiousDiskAs everyone mentioned, it's to circumvent the ilv cheese that's been going on for a while, now players are forced to essentially queue for all alliance raids up to Aglaia when queueing for alliance roulette.Quote:

Sounds like an unintended consequence of the new system, yeah. Hopefully someone who actually matters reads this thread and pushes it higher up so it can be fixed 'cause yeah. Whatever your reasons for doing alliance raid roulette in these circumstances is irrelevant; you should be able to do it if you want to.

They could maybe tie it to MSQ progression. Or if the game know what raids you have unlocked so your ilvl has to be as high as the highest available to you. But probably some issues with having a variable ilvl on roulette that is character specific. Either way, if you wanna blame anyone, blame the players who cheesed ilvl to keep doing CT over and over and over.
Also, I get this will sound harsh. But, if you are 90 in HW, Stb, Shb, why are you even running Alliance Roulette on that 90 job anyway? You don't need the tomestones or xp. The easiest option would just be level up another job. -

Gave me a reason not to run alliance raid roulette. I only ran it just to pass time.

For Lvl 90, that's Aglaia and its iLvl 565 entry requirement. The only exception being the Lvl 50 range, which has the iLvl set to the entry requirement of Syrcus Tower.Quote:
