Whats up with Low level Roulettes

Am i missing sumthing?I've had this Happen 4 times today.I join a Low level run to help out and the easy rewards.But last 4 times the run starts I always skip the CS's cuz i have seen them alrdy and i wait till the rest are done watching theirs.I never rush them cuz i dont care about that kinda thing.Soon as they are done the CS i say hello ^^ and I get this We're Not Skipping ^^ and they leave the run lol I'm thinking trolls but maybe I'm just missing sumthing??

Sounds a little over react from them, never happened to me but I only do it once a day for exp.

People are sick of doing that particular dungeon, maybe.

I'll admit I've left the last Sastasha I got... has been on it the whole week. Enough is enough.

lol I just find it weird cuz the ppl that leave are low level players.The last run it happen me and a high level smner were just like WTF! just happened.Really doesn't matter to me i just see ppl complain that they sit in ques waiting to do a low level run for long periods of time.Now ppl are doing the roulette for the rewards and to help these ppl progress and they just bail.Oh well on to the next adventure ^.-

Yeah it seems they're no the only one getting sick of constantly getting low level roulette. Sastasha 3 days in a row and counting now >_>

Haha that's just silly. I always skip the CSs too and no one seems to have a problem with that. I let people watch who wanna, and I even try to make sure to cover the whole dungeon so they can get max xp and the achievement for mapping.

Seems silly that they didn't just ask if you were ok with them watching CS and just ran off to get a 30 min lockout.

Doing low level roulette is not much fun at all, having most of the fun and useful skills missing makes for a very boring and insipid gameplay...
You're not mandated to do low level roulette but the exp at the end is really nice and it does feel nice to help people level...
But I simply... get utterly bored of low level gameplay.

I've rarely done it lately.
I prefer doing highest level dungeon(s) to level and have fun with my skills and not do the sastasha/etc snoozefest with most of the skills on my bars disabled.

There's clearly lots of cutscenes in low level dungeon...teehee.

Lots of people quit at Pharos Sirus the moment we enter. On Low level this had never happened to me.

I personally love the low level roulette. Its a quick and easy way for me to get tomes. Well until they throw me a curve ball and get Aurum Vale twice :X But aside from that, lately i have been having people bail out in the middle of the low level runs as well. Seems like its been WHM for me. Copperbell Mines is the culprit for these antics. And it sucks because what normally is a fast dungeon to begin with, turns into a waiting game just to finish it!

Trying to level my MRD (currently 26). DR gives me nothing but Sastasha and Tam-Tara.

When I see Toto-Rak in tomorrow's DR, maybe I'll go and buy a Lotto ticket or something...

there was an interview posted over in the reinhart forum where a dev said something about low level roulette currently being set to favor the low level dungeons (satasha, copperbell, tam tara) mor often than the others in the low level bracket and that they're planning on evening things out with 2.15. I know i got tam tara 3 days in a row. We had a relic drg there that left after 5 minutes because "it was clear we wouldn't be done in a reasonable time". We were done 15 minutes later, 15 minutes before his lockout was over lol.

What the fuck are you talking about? I do low level dungeons all the time to level. This is not a problem.

you enjoy doing the same dungeon over and over?

Is it me or Low level dungeons only consist of Sastasha and halitali?

out of last 20 Low level roulette i did... 80% its Hali tali , 15% Sastasha and 5% copper bell.

Anyone got anything else? or am i getting this because low level ppl are queuing a lot of these?

Now that you mention skills, I know the purpose of roulette is to help other players out while earning rewards for yourself but it's very counter-intuitive for players wishing to earn their class that they are levelling if half their abilities are unusable and if they don't have alot of time to spam dungeons

Currently in the Duty Roulette system, the lower level dungeons are being selected more often. However, for patch 2.15 we'll be looking into making system changes that will affect this. While the main focus will remain on prioritizing selection of content that is lacking players, we'd like to make it easier to do content of a wider level spread.

Meh, I don't mind that it's made me spam the first 3 because I've gotten almost the full Foestalker and Acolyte sets by doing it and I'll be using both for Vanity in 2.2. :D

Seriously. The only dungeons I ever get on my 41 WHM is Copperbell and Tam Tara.

I did low level roulette every day while leveling my scholar to 50. The highest dungeon I ever got was Halatali. Never have been lucky enough to get an Ifrit, though.

Got Sastasha yesterday on lancer. I was the lowest level at 25. The rest were all 40-50.

Guildhests are the same way. I get the level 10-15 guildhests every day.

This change can't come soon enough. Right now it's not roulette (ie. random), it's "walk down this hallway until you come to the first available room."

I got qarn the first time I did low level roulette, then found out about two hours later I needed it for the story quests LOL.

Yeah I got lucky and got Ifrit Normal my first low lvl DR and nabbed a cool 110k xp on my MNK (lvl 39), but every instance after that has just been Halitali. I don't mind running it because it actually isn't terrible XP, but my lack of skills that I could be using if the DR would just drop me in a Brayflox is annoying. Totally agree with this:

That kinda reminds me a little bit of someone i saw in low lv yesterday. They WHM joined and made it clear he was "going to focus on healing". I didn't really ask anything on it, i didn't what to turn a situation bad by asking questions. Some people get really touchy. Idk if he ment, he didn't want to be pushed into nuking, or if he wanted us to know he will try to heal us best he can or what.

Also my low lv roulettes are 90% Hatali, 8% copperbell mines, 1.5% ifrit, and .5% titan. That's as a tank, it may be different for other class's for some reason. I can't wait until they adjust it a bit so we can get different dungeons. I've done Hatali so often I've started to notice some neat speed run tactics. Like how you don't have to even fight most the mobs on the first floor, and can sneak around.
