    There is the sensitive fact that that one dun is Cutscene ridden, tho.

    Isn't there only one cutscene at the end? The party is blocked until everyone watches it too if I remembering it properly. I could be wrong, I haven't done it in awhile.

    They should have added it to the MSQ Roulette from the beginning, I tried doing it earlier due to not doing it in forever, but couldn't find a group in the 50 minutes I was queued for it. That's baffling if you ask me, if I was a new player I'd rather be forced to watch the cutscenes in the inn rather than wait a few hours potentially.

    It is, and I personally have no issue with it, as the person watching typically likes to know what to expect. So the cutscene gives me a moment to explain the fight to them.

    I already pointed out the issue with it being in MS Roulette, cause even if no one queued currently needed it, ARF would end up being chosen more often than Cas, Prae and Cape for just being a 4 man (Same happens, if you queue for Guildhest... which is the closest equivalent in game atm) and many who run the MS atm are used to the speed run-ability of those three. Having only Poetics as the reward would become a bitter experience for those ending up in ARF all the time, meaning queues for MS roulette would drop... significantly. Not really fixing the problem.

    But putting it into High Level (Preferred), or Levelling will work well, as 60's ARE running those for Law for (at least) other classes. And they're already expecting to run a 4 man. *nod nod*

    Nothing really on the conversation, but Cape Westwind is in Trials Roulette, not Main Story.

    i could swear I got it the other day running MS. Days have sadly been running together on me, and it's very possible I mixed it up with the Trial Roulette.
    Either way, just omit Cape from my post, still holds the same meaning. *nod nod*

    Text is read in the voice of the person reading it.
    If you read something as offensive, it'll be offensive.
    Have an open mind. Ask questions.
    The only stupid question is the one unasked.

    On the other hand, a lot of people run ms roulette for experience, and therefore wouldn't be eligible for arf. Only max level characters would be able to end up in arf and get the law from bosses and eso from roulette reward. Both kinds of story dungeons would be populated.

    Hrm... haven't done it in a while myself so I can't recall properly but I believe the mid boss had a cutscene too??
    What I do remember is that the last boss has more than 1, there are at least 2, and nope, they dont lock you out of the fight for those that are not in the cutscene. They aren't exactly short either (as in 10 seconds or so cutscene), they last a minute.

    For some its "oh whats to wait a single minute?" whilst for others would be "oh damn I have to wait one minute?! again?!!"
    At least the dungeon is 4-man and it shouldn't suffer of the same magnitude of problems as, say, Preatorium.

    Just to picture it for an example, imagine Neverreap last boss had a 1 minute cutscene entry and every time you got a newbie in the party they ended up watching it. If they are a DPS I can totally see them being left outside of the fight altogether :/ (maybe not always, but would definitely happen).
