    What would be your thoughts about the leveling roulette if you always got Sastasha, Tam Tara, or Copperbell Mines? Because that is what the playerbase is currently dealing with when it comes to Alliance Raid roulette
    No.

    Its the equivalent of getting one of those 3, cutters, sunken temple, halatali, stone vigil, darkhold or AV. And those make up 75% of my leveling roulettes, and all but one in the last 2 months has had a newbie.

    Similarily, I have mostly new people runs in Lab / Syrcus now. Roulettes that include a vast level range will ALWAYS be heavily weighted to the low end in this game. About HALF of the playtime between 1 and 80 limits you to one set of alliance raids and 1-47 leveling dungeons. Thats a whole lot when it only takes 1 person per 18 to toss you there.

    I used to get LotA and ST a lot for a long time. Recently it has been mostly World of Darkness and Orbonne for me with an occasional LotA/ST run.

    No right back at ya.

    In a situation where all players in the queue qualify for the highest leveling dungeon possible, you still have to deal with RNG. That's just a matter of tough luck, and a situation that already exists. I just brought up the first three dungeons as a hypothetical example of a similar situation in the leveling roulette since the OP brought up Sastasha. Otherwise, I could just as easily retort and mention that I haven't got an ARR dungeon in leveling roulette in months. In fact, the damn thing keeps throwing me in Dohn Mheg.

    Futhermore, we have fewer instances in the roulette pool with the Alliance Raids. If players weren't using the ilv exploit to force all other players into the CT raids and we kept getting them out of shear dumb luck, I could accept that considering that there is a total of nine instances in that pool. That's not the case though. Many players have come forth stating that they are getting nothing but the CT raids and are fed up. Then we also have the issue of newer players (the very ones in those CT raids with you that will eventually have to do the other raids) will not be able to clear the HW and SB raids without insane wait times in the queues.
