Crystal Tower raids still way too common in roulette

The ilevel Alliance raid fix did absolutely nothing from what I can tell. In the past 2-3 weeks of AR roulette, I've had Crystal Tower about 15 times, most of which were LotA. Only about 5 were non CT raids. I haven't gotten Nier raids a single time in that time span .

At this point, I feel like just skipping the AR roulette because I'm so sick to death of CT raids, but then I miss out on the XP and rewards from it.

They really need to fix this. I'm not sure how, maybe make all Alliance raid unlocks required to complete the MSQ? Or make it so the higher your level, the less likely you are to pull CT.

Go ahead and skip it. There are plenty of other sources of XP and tomestones.

I realize this is anecdotal, but I feel like a lot of people said that getting CT was still going to happen frequently, and that the ilvl cheesing was not the biggest cause of those raids to pop. I feel like at least twice a day during my queuing, I get sprouts, so it seems like there is still a lot of new characters that can skew the odds towards that.

While it's still common for me due to being required for MSQ and by virtue of being lower level and thus more accessible, Myth of the realm appears quite frequently too.

The irony in this case is that the level 90 raids actually start to take even less time to clear than a Laby/WoD run (which can actually wipe a raid not like the baby park myths of the realm is lol).
All they did is bring in an inconvenience to those who outleveled their content and cannot buy tome gear of their expansion to actually get into the raids.

No one seriously thought it would remove CT from the roulette. It's the only one required for msq. It did make it much less frequent for me though

CT was the most common one even before it was required for the MSQ.

As it logically should be.

MSQ Required Content is always going to take precedence, especially since it’s also Free Trial content. The iLv Req for Alliance Raid pushes people to unlock those raids so they aren’t sitting there dead with barely any players.

Its because they're the only non optional raids, they're the most early ones, so most new players will also be queued for them.
Personally I always felt like they should have split off the alliance raids into a separate roullete (like msq), I can even argue that for a lot of ARR content where it feels bad to get a lot of the time, but is popular because it's where a lot of players start out (ARR is usually the most played stuff even though its the least fun to do)

Personally I'd just make a new roulette section That consists of ARR content, which would reward a lot of exp/coins/tomes. I'm sure theirs issues with that too though?
