    I love the Duty roulette. I do not like Fates too much and running these dungeons at random is a great boost for experience and leveling and a welcome change. The only downside I see is that some of the lower level players are sometimes carried through the content without ever knowing that it can be harder if everybody is on their level.

    Two days ago, I was grouped in a Titan run (normal story mode) and there was one guy at the level who needed the quest, 2 guys in full relic, DL and myth gear and my mighty level 45 bard lol. The fight took three minutes and the guy said he can’t believe it. He tried it a dozen times and all the times he wiped. Truth is, it was that easy because of the rest of the party. Next dungeon he faces without Level 50 player help will be more challenging so I am not sure if it is really helping that much.

    But still it is kinda helpful, people play quests again they normally refuse to play and people who need to play the quest to level up or to proceed in story mode do not need to wait forever till they have a party together. People who help either receive a great EXP boost or receive philo and myth tomes even for low level quests so in all it is a win-win situation.

    May have been fast because of the group he actually got, but it was easy because it was with experienced players rather than players who were on the same experience level as him.

    He was probably being grouped with high level players for most of those attempts. And most likely on many of those runs when someone messed up and made a mistake, they rage quit.
