Bonus reward for tanking

[Amyas]

That's not going to make players flock to tank dungeons.

Exactly. And its only once per day, so I guess I'll stick to pugs or friends then. Oh well :T It should be at least idk... 5k (if its gonna be once a day)? That sounds reasonable. As a person that doesn't want to craft, I want to at least be able to cover teleports and repair, not have to choose one or the other.

Maybe other roles gets some gil too

Yeah I'm sure there is a smaller reward in gil for other roles using the duty roulette, but 250 (or 50%, w/e) more is a bit of an insult to an 'in demand' class.

What they SHOULD do (as an economist) is give people the option to put their own gil (OT TOMES!!!) in as a reward to the in-demand class. You are a BLM, you need Praetorium, you put up 40k of gil, the tank sees in dungeon roulette there is a potential reward of 100k for doing a dungeon (your 40k plus 60k more from the other 5-6 people willing to pay for the run), and the tank goes, "Oh nice, let's rock this!". That would provide incentive for the tank to queue, for the tank to do well to finish the dungeon (he only gets a % based on how far the group gets), and it would avoid inflation because gil wouldn't be being pumped in, just exchanged.

Of course there would be the issue of cross-server gil exchanges and legacy players willing to spend 600k on something a normal player would only want to spend 10k on, but randomization and supply/demand equalizing should eventually smooth out.

This sounds interesting, but I bet it would devolve quickly to people shouting on their own server 'lfm tank 20k!' 'screw that pt 25k here!' 'No 30 lol!' -tank
