    And I also hate praetorium since CS became unskippable but it is still the most efficient XP gain in the game after level 50 currently.
    I craft for both profit and my craft. Those extra Goetia come in handy. Plus I actually like the higher level raids because they actually require my brain to be turned on. Getting LotA/Syrcus all the time is snore enduing. I've literally fallen asleep through them. They'll just so damn boring.

    Regardless, what I find rather ironic is several people in this very thread have insisted "don't do the MSQ roulette if you can't handle cut scenes" whenever that topics comes up yet they'll happily let those same newer players loiter in hour long queues for Riorana or Rabanastre because you might get a bad run that wastes your time.

    It is more than "might" when it comes to dun scaith or above raids, and I speak from experience. Anso, when you come back from work during an evening and want to do all roulettes on your job you're currently leveling and/or have responsabilities to attend to outside the game, you don't want to spend 2 hours in a bad Ordonne run that fails because there are clueless people in the raid whom you absolutely cannot do anything to make them understand the mechanics or play better.

    Furthermore, I really don't think getting dun scaith or above raid leads to a good goetia ratio. Because in the time required to complete these raid you can simply run several 4 men dungeons. And I fail to see the connection between the MSQ roulette and the raid roulette, in one case there are 0 chances the run would fail and you are handsomely paid for your time. In the second there is a chance you ll waste 2 hours without anything to show for it and without gaining anything better than when you run 15 minutes CT2.

    Cool. Fewer people should run that roulette, especially if they want to freeload.
    Good thing that's clearly not the point of view of SE.
