It's time we get an Extreme Trial Roulette.

[Tsumdere]

I agree that tomestones are not a good enough reward. A mount associated with the roulette is a good incentive, but I'm sure SE can think of better rewards. Furthermore, I think adding a permanent 15-25% echo is a good idea specifically for the roulette, but I am iffy about that because, as I stated in my OP, I do want a way for newer players to get a taste of high-end content in the difficulty it was meant to be experienced in, in the context of a duty roulette.

It's something I have mulled over personally for a while since I too would like some form of difficult roulette.

In fact, I just thought of something along the lines of Frontlines "Roulette" where every day it's a different extreme primal, and only that extreme primal. You queue in solo to try your luck at clearing. Rewards would be tuned appropriately (i.e. Garuda challenge days giving paltry rewards in comparison to Thordan challenge days).

This way that people know exactly what they're getting into and whether or not they want to deal with said primal that day. Have the easier ones give less points to gather said rewards from the roulette. People who want to farm up fast will go for the harder primals, but it would not exclude people who would do the slower, easier route of only queuing on easy days.

As for rewards... mass tomes, mount for achievement (100? 200?), maybe guaranteed drop of crafting material and pony/bird/dog, titles, or exclusive glam.

Just a straight roulette would be a disaster, but I think it could work as a challenge thing.

This is actually a great idea. This way, players unfamiliar with the trial can read up on or watch video guides (not guaranteeing that that will necessarily happen, but it increases the chances of it), and it makes the run smoother for everyone else. Having daily trial like that with a known EX primal is also a good in-game conversation starter ("Shiva EX is up today in roulette, wanna do it with me?") etc.

I could get behind this idea.
