Duty Roulette while in a grp.

Love the roulette! Working exactly and beautifully as it was designed. Got groups for two quest dungeons in minutes instead of hours.

Speedruns wont' work without 4people coordinated and usually overgeared. Also, the bonus is only once per day. That defeats SR DR farming right here.

I agree with op, the irony is it's promoting non social play. I like to play with FC buddies, but it will cost me alot of rewards to do so. Now i'm stuck playing with 3 pugs who can't form and lasting teamwork with cuz they probalby on different server. At least allow duo queue in DR. No need to allow solo Q. So many DR i've done had 3 DR players, lol.

I like the way it is now.

Actually, it's promoting non SELFISH play.

Commendations is not a part of duty roulette.
You can get it also during a normal DF run. You can't give someone your vote if you're not solo in the DF, but can get a vote from someone who is solo in the DF.

I've bumped into so many rude people in high level DR. The other queues are fine but it's just that one.

Because this is the way it was designed from the start. You can farm tomes faster in a group than using DF/DR.

So.. another feature that we need to wait for 2.2 to actually enjoy? Starting to wonder why they put out 2.1 at all...

Seriously though.. one person helping three is good(and of those three, you may sometimes only find one that's actually level appropriate), but two people helping two others is not? So, i have to choose between helping people i don't know from off server so it's doubtful i'll meet them again to build any sort of community, or spending time doing things with my girlfriend or friends.. which one do you think i'm going to pick? Which one is a normal person who likes spending time with friends going to pick?

It's called variety. I don't want to farm the same dungeon again and again and again, but i would gladly do all my Roulette dungeons a day with my SO, which would help three (or four) groups by the two of us.. but now no groups are helped by the two of us. Who loses more? Me, or the people waiting on story dungeons?

So make it so you can't hand out commendations to people you queued with... It's not that hard. >_> I'm mostly just interested in the bonus tomes and such anyway.

I did a low level duty roulette today for kicks and got a full group of 50s in DL/myth gear doing duty roulette, so.... Yeah. xD
