They applied the fix that everyone said would fix it.
Some people feel they get the other raids more now. Some like yourself feel they don't. So what more is there to say? If you don't want to do alliance raids then don't do the alliance roulette.
Also, you said the first 3 were made badly. They were not. They are really great raids, our item level just outgear them and make the mechanics irrelevant. If you ever did them in ARR or minimum item level, you'd understand how sophisticated and full of mechanics they are and how they can actually wipe, or near-wipe, the whole alliance.
The fix was not to prevent CT. It was to prevent it being selected when it was not the highest level raid their job could access due to unequipping gear.
So why are you doing an alliance raid roulette if you don't want to do alliance raids? I personally avoided it since the roulette started existing except when someone wanted me to do it with them for the very reason that I don't want to be caught up in really long alliance raids, nor really boring ones that are no longer fun due to item level.
If they synced them all to Minimum Item level it would be a lot better, but I don't know if it would make me do it much because again they can be quite long regardless.
This change was never going to "fix" alliance roulette because ilevel cheese was never the main cause of "Crystal Tower Roulette" in the first place.
Fact is, CT is the lowest common denominator. It's lowest level and the only set everyone is guaranteed to have unlocked. In order to get Nier in roulette, every single person has to be level 80+ and have the raid unlocked. Meanwhile it only takes a single player below level 60 to toss the other 23 people in CT. It will ALWAYS be the most common raid, ilevel cheese or no.
The ARR alliance raid isn't "badly made". It's just so dumbed down due to ilvl cheese and ability redistribution that it's a chore now. But at least there we had a reason for having three parties unlike what we have now with the current one.
