Scale the "Adventurer In Need" Bonus

As the topic title implies:

Give a baseline bonus of gil for the adventurer in need, but increase that amount based on how many of the other roles are currently waiting in the queue.

I just queued into a Mentor Roulette as a DPS and the average wait time is 13 minutes.

There are so many DPS in the queue right now that a roulette that covers all content but savage/ultimate, still has to wait 10+ minutes. Could you imagine if you were trying to solo queue into an optional dungeon like say... Amdapor Keep (Hard)? You'd be waiting for hours.

Maybe they should implement a Fast Pass type option. Pay some gil and you are moved to the front of the line. Would be a great gil sink.

Haha, what I'm proposing is kind of the opposite. Scaling the gil reward up as the number of people increase in the queue. Give people more of an incentive to run:

7200 gil? Eh... I'd rather just run DPS. 28k? Hmm... 54k? Ok, you know what? I can dust off my WAR and jump in there.

The Problem is people don't want to tank or heal, there is a vast majority of people who only want to play dd, even though they are bad at it.

That's what this change would work to fix :)

Offer an increasing incentive for people to play needed roles (Usually - Tank or Heal, though in the case of Alliance Raids, it can on occasion be DPS). Eventually the reward will be high enough for people to opt in.

I feel like this would be an overall easy addition to duty roulette system that would skew participation in a direction that directly benefits everyone's queue times.

The adventure in need rewards o. o I think are good enough. Thats just me. XD I craft so the money made from adventure is fine to me.

Greed, Greed never changes.
