I've surprisingly not gotten a CT raid in roulettes for awhile now. It's almost always the final NieR raid lately, which I don't mind cause I've never rolled over a 20 on the 9S minion.

My own experience is that CT comes up more often than not, but I still do get a steady supply of the other raids as well, and varies week to week. I just hate getting CT raids because I like to do mechanics. WoD is actually more fun than Voidark for this reason.
Retuning these instances should be a common occurrence as new patches are released. Making mechanics a thing again for lower level raids would immediately stop players from ilvl cheesing the roulette. You nail two birds with one stone. -
05-14-2022, 11:09 PMYoukulmI don't, thanks for your concern. Just talking about why people see it so much when they run roulettes and why that is unlikely to change anytime soon. Sorry you missed the point, ill try to be more clear next time.Quote:

Wanting to get a specific raid isn't the point. Not getting the same raid group almost every single time is the point. Out of all the roulettes I've queued for in the last 6 months, I've gotten CT raids for almost all of them.Quote:

The roulette system needs some sort of mechanism to keep you from getting the same one you did the last time. Getting Syrcus 10 times in a row is really stupid. I get the whole "filling the need" argument that always gets brought up, but I'm already not filling the need if I simply opt out of using the roulette in the first place because I'm sick of the same thing every day. -

I always make sure its the last roulette of the day so i can just leave.
Crystal Tower is embarrassing in its current form. it definitely needs the Castrum Meridanum/Praetorium treatment. -
05-15-2022, 12:13 AMRanakuUnlike some "others" here i don't have a problem with either WoD or CT or Labyrinth. So yes i like my sweet sweet rewards and i do whatever the roulette may give me, unlike some others. But i see you don't get my point at all and you most certainly don't know how to reverse an argument so it works against the originator.Quote:

But as for me, i see in all my runs newbies and only one of them is enough to trigger a raid roulette and it is a fact that more people queue (out of need) for the CT raid series than for the other raids cause they are not mandatory for the MSQ nor are they the first raid newbies come across.
But as for me my conscience is clear which is the reason why your argument there isn't working at all, i do every raid/dungeon i come across in roulette no matter if it's Orbonne when Cidolfus was still a wipefest or dungeons where the tank decides to pull a single group of mobs at a time. Heck i even helped a poor soul out that ran Paradigm's Breach eleven times to get the popola set by not rolling on it when it actually dropped. But i guess, judging from your reaction, you can't say the same about yourself. Cause being a nice person is too "scawy" i guess.
So better luck next time you try to make an argument for yourself, you clearly still need to learn the mechanics of that...or are they too "scawy" for you?
Edit: To explain it in a TL:DR way, CT raids are heavily favored by design. They are A) mandatory for the MSQ B) the first raid people come across C) the only raid unlocked by character boosts by default and D) players who only unlocked the CT raid and do their roulettes will always trigger a CT roulette by design since they can't get any other raid at that point. So if you have even 1 person in roulette queue that only has CT and Labyrinth unlocked it will trigger a CT run.
The only way a different raid can trigger is by either all people that the matchmaker throws into a group having unlocked all other raids OR a person that specifically queues for another raid than CT and waits longer than all other people, since the roulette prefers to give the player with the highest waiting time the group. -
05-15-2022, 12:24 AMweebtextShockingly, some people want to have fun playing the video game Final Fantasy 14. Unfortunately, when a roulette only gives you three possible results out of what, 13 now? alliance raids 99% of the time it stops being fun. Especially when literally every jobs rotation at 50 is such boring garbage that people would rather leave than spam 1-2-3 for 10 minutes straight with absolutely 0 real mechanics going out. Why be bored out of your mind for 10 minutes when you can have fun for 30 minutes?Quote:
