    Helping is nice but Trial Roulette was supposed to be a quick thing that you can queue and enjoy some fast content and be over with it. 40min of doing SoF to help people is fine the first time, but after the 5th time it's just too much. They should have moved it to the main story roulette or something. You might say that if you don't like it, don't queue, but that's exactly what me and probably many others have done, increasing queue times in general.

    Im sorry did I miss "quick" in the description for the q somewhere? Lol cant believe you said that like its a valid excuse for dodging content. "It's not quick and easy thats not what its meant to be."

    I dodge it not because it's hard, but because it's boring and frustrating when people can't follow even simple instructions. I mean it can't get simpler than "don't shoot the dragonkiller before he's in the red circle" can it? But nope, just like life, pugs, pugs will find a way...

    I guess it doesn't matter cause I don't queue for it anymore. They can make it whatever they want for all I care now, especially since we don't even get any more poetics because I'm capped at 450 halfway through the week anyway.

    Although I really wish they had made some kind of at least token crafting adjustments or gathering adjustments, I suppose I cant be too mad about this patch.

    There is zero here that affects me, is all.

    I don't remember SE saying this. In all honesty, I believe the trial roulette is there to help new players the reward isn't that great. If your leaving the trial because you got Steps of Faith then you are missing the whole point of the roulette. It's random, if you get it deal with it and at least try and not just give up. The reason its in trial roulette is because its a trial and they need people to continue helping new player though it simple. No one said it had to be some quick think that you can queue and enjoy fast content and be over with it.

    Who's saying I'm leaving the trial? I just don't queue in the first place...

    The issue is the time difference between SoF and the other trials is just too big. If I have 30min to spare, I can't queue trials at all because I might get SoF when before SoF each trial was less than 10min on average, maybe 20min if you have a lot of new people.

    Yeah, same here. Since that thing was added to the trial roulette, I don't bother anymore. 10 poetics for more than half an hour of trying and people messing up? no thanks. I really miss these 5 minutes run for almost free poetics. I'l always prefer tol run another expert in the mean time.
