Please Reconsider MSQ Changes

[Kazgrel]

I just run Labyrinth of Ancients now if I really want Poetics. The wait time is less and goes by really quick. Only downside is it has a higher chance of failure on some bosses where as MSQ you're guaranteed to succeed on every fight.

Labryinth of the Mechanics are for Cars? Haven’t had a wipe in there since mid-HW. Hell the Atomos trash has been more responsible for wipes than any of the bosses in my experience.

I love the alliance roulette, and I get Labyrinth A LOT. There are full-alliance wipes fairly often :X It's one of those places that you absolutely-should-not-wipe as we are vastly overgeared, and the fights are seared into memories - but people get lazy. The alliance chat after a wipe is always good fun.

I’m lucky then. Since 4.0 I’ve had one wipe each on first and last boss of WoD and that’s been it from the ARR alliance raids as far as wipes go. LotA and ST have been absolute faceroll, with the former being especially so since they changed it to only require 3 tanks.

Back to the actual topic: I still haven’t touched MS roulette since the patch. I end up having to go out of my way to piss away the poetics I get from other roulettes + hunts.

I ended up doing MSQ about 5 times since the change. I came to the conclusion that I'm done with it. :X About half the queues were with a tank friend - so I had some fast, some slow queue times (was leveling BLM).

While I can definitely appreciate a slow/easy run (this is why I love me some Alliance!), I just can't hang with MSQ roulette anymore. The last time I ran, there was a sprout tank who started cussing at the group over one of the "standard" Prae pulls. lol. In my mind, it was just the moment of "I'm already stuck watching these damn CSs for sprouts, and now we're getting cussed at by one, I'm DONE!". (It was an emotional response vs. logical one - I really don't blame sprouts for the change at all.)

I think I gave it a decent shot. :X Unless they add the newest tomes or bump up the XP gain even more, I don't think I'll be running it again for my own needs.

I do think people are leaving out "toxic" new players as well, as I said before I had groups where 1 new player and 1 or 2 friends where trying to hold the group hostage and not click though the CS. It was very rare and I do not think the frequency of people wanting to watch the CS and doing acts like that warranted a change outside trying to inform new players on making pfs/running with friends if they wanted to take their time though them.

But ya I am confused why the general tone is catering to new players when some are the problem causers.
