    Making it a solo duty is probably the best option if people REALLY have such a big problem with how it is now, but I've liked having the MSQ roulette to help me level characters and farm poetics. Maybe we should just suck it up and watch the cutscenes, or get a snack during them.
    I mean, people already abandon those two Duties anyway (mainly Castrum Meridianum). I've joined to many Party in Progress runs in both places where like half the party left. But, indeed, some assholes will go for sure if the Skip option is not available for them at the begining, but at least this is better than kicking first timers, since others may join (not like you even require a full party to finish them, unless all 8 people are ilvl 50)

    The best option right now is to leave things as they are. New players can watch the cutscenes without having to concern themselves with it being "their fault" the raid is moving so slow. Everyone understands what they're getting into when they queue, and that finding a PUG without new players won't make things go any faster.

    Maybe some people are willing to eat the abandon if they get the one that's worth less exp, but that's not significant enough to be a real issue.

    I really don't see the big deal. It's still way more efficient than pretty much every other way to level and farm poetics. Losing this roulette would hurt veteran players more than help, and SE OBVIOUSLY isn't going to let us reap the same rewards while avoiding or pressuring new players to skip.
