How long till Orborne monastery is a faceroll? It could happen as a result of any future patch.
I don’t mind the bonus if it’s also eventually removed... otherwise you just replace one issue with another.
You could actually automate this. Watch fight metrics and dynamically adjust rewards based on factors like how much damage is being done or taken, adjusted by mechanics failure rates and inject “perfect data” in AFK gaps to prevent people from slowing fights down in order to buff the rewards... (ie, if the data reveals that people are AFK 30% of the time, inject a presumption that the fight was actually cleared 30% faster than the data shows - thus reducing the rewards).
- and also tweak the rewards over time based on averages and not individually.
They have all this data, even fflogs has this data. Someone could plug fflogs data into a spreadsheet and come back with a perfect formula for balancing rewards for all of the roulettes that adjusted itself every hour...
