I think I missed a week of doing them cause I didn't care, But I can say that I've had very few runs with anyone that was actually new. You get a Bonus when you clear a dungeon with new people, So I love it when new people are there. So to me yes the DR is for an insane amount of EXP. Its not like I'm going to leave over and over just to get a low level dungeon, that sure is a waste of time. I don't think SE is going to patch it because people leave. If they want to patch it they can increase the EXP Bonus in high level dungeons.

    Cause I can't see them adding in some crap, Saying if you leave a Duty Roulette you don't get the Bonus.

    I fail to understand the reasoning for leaving if you get a higher level dungeon. Assuming it works as Zfz says (which makes sense from what I have seen):

    Lets pretend you are level 36, with 0 xp. You need 249,900 xp to get to level 37. Lets assume for the moment that the ~45% number is correct. This means that doing the roulette will net you 112455 xp.

    If you get Copperbell, and mob kills grants you 20k xp then the bonus would be 92,455. If you get Brayflox and mob kills grants you 45k then the bonus would be 67,455. Yes the bonus is smaller but the net gain is the same. If you only got 20k in mob kills in Brayflox (by skipping mobs for example) then the bonus would jump back up to 92,455. The point is, you get the same xp no matter what dungeon you run.

    I'm not saying it isn't correct. But from my experience I have never got such a low amount of EXP, Until I did a high level dungeon today. Aside from High level Dungeons, Regardless of what is killed my EXP Bonus has always been on the same track meaning, From level 30 my exp has increased from whatever the bonus @30 is to 217k @ level 49.

    It could be correct I guess I'll have to test it out.

    level 42- 43 is 356,800 exp, that's 160,560 Bonus (45%) I did Cutters Cry and got lil over 68k so that would mean we would have gotten 94k in total mob kills. We killed everything so I think its more than 94k in there I will see.




    Ok so I just did a test I will give numbers if someone wants to double check. On another Account.

    I did level 24 job with 19,037 out of 87,100. That would mean 45% of 87,100 is 39195 Bonus EXP correct? I got 46,249exp from mobs (we skipped a lot) took me to 65,286 out of 87,100. I got a DR Bonus of 47,041 + 5,716 from the last boss.

    So those are my numbers.... if the Bonus is suppose to be 45% I got more than 45%, I got around 54%. So I don't think it matters about how much EXP you get from the Mobs as much as it matters about what your level is compared to the dungeon level.

    I don't know if it's your phrasing or what but when I see:

    This screams selfishness to me. You wouldn't do roulette or help out in low level dungeons at all because there isn't anything in it for you, correct?

    Roulette is there to give players an incentive to run older content for people that have yet to clear it. There is literally no other logical reason to have it besides that.

    Except when a new player needs a dungeon, you get paired, see the zone, "lulz not low enough dungeon, MAH XPZZZ, bai", and quit. This undermines the entire concept of the low level roulette system and makes it a redundant feature that hurts other players.

    Now, you might not be one of these people and I'm sorry if I misinterpreted your statements, but I can tell you that there are people out there that are malicious and will take advantage of the system for their own personal gain.
