Evading what, exactly? The post I was responding to seemed to be about why people would take the chance on the roulette and dodge out half the time, and I answered it.

I mean, yeah, the roulette sucks. The dungeons should both just become solo/trust duties and nix the roulette entirely. But as long as there are meaty rewards for minimal actual effort, people will keep going for it.

You gave yourself the answer so what? Its a roulette and that means you dont have anything to say about what is in the duty in the end but choose to "when i dont get what i want in a random system i leave or cheese the system" so beeing honest should be easy.
I think it should be Solo duty BUT i dont cheese the system i dont like. I give SE my feedback and as long it is as it is i stay away... not hard atleast for me. Funnly enough i agree with most stuff just not with cheesing and the like.

If I queue and it puts me in Castrum, I just do it (unless, of course, the entire party drops.....and yes, that did happen to me once). So I'm not sure what you're arguing about, exactly. Just because I understand why people do it doesn't mean I agree or approve.

Nah. It's fine as it is dude. If you want exp, go for prae always. If you want some easy tomes, go for castrum. Don't create a solution for a problem that doesn't exist just to justify yourself.

And I'd rather not waste my time by going through a daily roulette that's going to give me a fraction of the xp I want and, guess what, my time is more important to me than yours is. "Assigned". LOL

This is the epitome of selfish entitlement.

Personally I'd increase the lockout timer for abandoning the msq roulette to 24 hours. That would go a long way towards alleviating the problem.

How are they holding anyone hostage if they already left the dungeon? I don’t think you even understand that word at all. Also why would you think you can’t keep going and clear something so easy with only 7 people?

Just don’t do the MSQ roulette if you don’t like it. It’s not mandatory.

As for me, I like the tomes and the xp we get from it. It’s also an easy way to grind special tomes during some events without spending my time waiting in a queue. All they need to do, is up the xp in Castrum.

Their thoughts dont make sense right? its kinda funny. As soon as one person leaves, you're free to go as well or stay if everyone else wants. If everyone else leaves, then you can try to fill the party (and watch people leaving) , or leave and try again.

The problem goes away if Castrum XP matches Prae.

The difference in XP is kind of huge and you can only get that XP bonus once a day.

I don't blame people who want to get Prae.
