    [SUGGESTION] Binding Coil (Raid) Roulette

    I queued up for Binding Coil T5 today as a Healer...
    and waited.... and waited.... and waited.... for a couple hours,
    and saw i was still the only person waiting, so i just gave up.

    Yeah, i understand, make a Party Finder group un-synced and have a breeze,
    but i still think it's a shame that the content has gone so far into abandoned territory. The same can be said for the first 2 areas of Crystal Tower. People only ever run the 3rd.

    So it got me wondering, once again, why there is no Roulette for these areas as of yet?

    A) I like the idea. But, I still think it wouldn't get run very often unless there's a nice bonus attached to it.

    B) For CT/ST/WoD -- These are still run very frequently, mainly for Aether Oil and now Khloe's book. (speaking from Primal data center)

    There isn't a roulette because there is no way you'll get me back in coil without it being unsynced. No matter what bonus is tacked onto it, will not make me do it.

    I didn't realize you were the reason we don't have that!

    Personally, I love Coil and felt the difficulty was perfect and should have been standard. It's a shame Alex became easier and easier every raid set. So, an idea like this, regardless of bonus, would entice me.

    not the sole reason obviously, but I wouldn't be caught dead wasting time on the roulette no matter the bonus. People on my datacenter have problems with normal mode trials, I'd hate to even try to do coil with the same people sync'd.

    I personally dont do that content because i couldnt take it when it was new content or same expansion.
    I did it once for the story and never looked back.
    If there were a roulette i think People wouldnt do it bcz the risk of wiping a lot.
    No prize could equal like 10 wipes.

    Btw i gladly do it unsynced or synced if ppl is commited but those are fantasies :v

    Yeah even if this is implemented I doubt on north american servers this would become a thing ever. All duty finders groups break down when they are confronted with the slightest amount of difficulty. See Steps of Faith as a example. Had to be nerfed into the ground. True synced difficulty on content t1-5 would banish this roulette into never being done ever.
