Add something to Level 80 roulette to make people do it...

As DPS I am often first in line for 80 roulette or even 50/60/70 and it's a little strange due to no incentive to do it. Can we get some clusters added to the bonus for it at least to make it worth doing more?

There are multiple other, much more fun ways to gain weekly tomes.

These include but are not limited to:

Hunts
Treasure Hunts (maps)
Weekly raids (story mode)
Weekly savage raids
Weekly 24 man raids
Palace of the Dead (as a level 80 class)
Heaven on High (as a level 80 class)


Among others I’m sure.


Most/all of which are repeatable tome rewards. (Spam-able.)

Please don’t torture yourself or the mentors in mentor roulette by doing level 80 dungeons for Tomes.

PotD and HoH are fun? News to me

I do all the roulettes for tomes. That's good enough reason to do ALL you're roulettes per day.

I'd much rather get an 80 dungeon in my mentor roulette than Ramuh EX any day of the week.

In fact, I'd even pay for it. Put it on the mog station Square.

If you're using the 80 Roulette for weekly tomes ... you get 50 from just re-running the Hero's Gauntlet again. No reason to run the 80 Roulette for those.

Other than perhaps the fact that we're already expected to run Heroes' Gauntlet ad nauseum for Expert roulette?

Some people prefer variety over maximum efficiency.

Usually pops for me between 8-12 minutes on average as DPS, which also comes up as the adventurer in need from time to time. That doesn't seem to shorten the queue time any though xD

Not sure what more you want though. Running the roulette you get tomes on top of the roulette bonus awards, chest drops can be used for glamour or GC seals, you will often get the bonus from first timers, chance at orchestrion roll, chance at minion, chance at TT card, grants a WT sticker, counts towards Dungeon Master I and II weekly bonus, major boost to spirit bond on your gear upon completion...

What else you want tossed in there? Rare dyes? Mount?

i think thats kind of OP's point? near nobody does the roulette because it gives less tomes than just queuing for heroes gauntlet. more people would do it if the roulette gave in total even 10 more allegory than heroes gauntlet

Considering how few level 80 dungeons there are, they should've all just been left in the Expert roulette. Give us more variety and keep the dungeons alive.

The problem is they'd need a non-expert level 80 roulette for people to catch up to the current expert dungeon's ilvl.

If they went back to alternating 1/2 dungeons per patch, then there'd always be 3 dungeons in the expert roulette.

Being a mentor means that you agree to help out with whatever content needs people. And there are worse things than an 80 dungeon for that one - at least most people know what to do there.

I'll ne honest I havent touched 80 roulette for a while, too busy getting new jobs levelled and relics as well as bozja. The fact that the tome gear is going to become obsoleted in a month, just makes it less attractive, and other options like bozjan gear existing make it less of a need right now basis(also weekly puppets) IDK what else to tell OP, i am actually happy we have several side grades compared to the age old "tome gear or raid gear thats all you get"

The thing is, tomes aren't just used for Gear, but for certain crafting mats as well. Especially the level 80 one gives a lot of tomes you need, and might be a quick way to get your mats together.

I just wanted to give you perspective that there might be players running the Roulettes for crafting mats, as you only went on about tomes in relation to Gear.

True, probably could sell materials for profit as well

I agree with this. I don't really understand why they feel the need to separate "80 roulette" from "expert roulette." The lack of diversity in expert roulette was always a struggle for me. This time it's especially worse since we have fewer dungeons. I don't run either expert or 80 for or for gil anymore. If they were both combined, though, then I'd run it.

It would take a pretty hefty reward to get players to go back to the same dungeons they were doing for Expert roulette for the first 8 months of the expansion. Players got sick of them fast. And I imagine many would still pass on doing them when those rewards can be earned through other content they enjoy more.

Take away the Level Sync, then maybe.
I touched the lv80 roulette once a few months ago, got Amourot Synced, and it took WAY longer then it usually did. Turning me off completely

He was saying they're more fun than doing the 80 roulette, a low bar to clear.

Even spamming the same 10 floors over and over is more fun than 80 roulette, and that's the least fun way to play them.

Amaurot is tuned for fresh 80s who only have their 390 artifact gear. We're now at 480-500. We don't need more Crystal Tower situations.

The way they mention clusters makes me think that they want the adventurer in need bonus which on every roulette that isn't the alliance roulette just about always says tank or healer because those 2 roles are in the highest demand.
