They wouldn't make it more rewarding than expert dungeons in terms of tomes, because that would completely invalidate the purpose of adding new dungeons each patch.

    No one runs 24 mans because they are long, unpredictable, and the time investment (not just for the queue) balances poorly with the odds of getting the minion or glamour you want off a boss. None of these factors would change with the addition of a 24-man roulette, so they would remain as dead as they are.

    Chopping them up and putting them into trial roulette, although disappointing, is the only way to make sure that a person who wants to fight a certain boss will be able to do so repeatedly with a reasonable waiting time. As they are now, they are essentially 4 trial roulettes + trash, back to back to back to back. People don't have time or patience for that, thus they are dead.

    I'd do it for a bunch of XP. They added XP to the mobs, so I'd be leveling all my 50-60 dudes every day in there.

    Because, in addition, I like the place.

    Some people won't want to do it. Cool. That's fine. I don't really do EX roulette because I get my highest end tomestones elsewhere, and there's just not a lot of reason for me to go in there. Just because me, and a bunch of others don't want to do it, doesn't mean that others won't.

    But a 24-man raid roulette would be done by many people, including me. And it would be great.
