    They can fix it by making a separate 70/80 alliance roulette with appropriate experience rewards. People will queue for it because it now has a reward associated with the time spent doing them.
    You don't understand that the same way I don't understand how people can be ok with doing CT raids for whatever life spawn this game will have (probably daily). Next cap increase will be more of the same.

    I will be happy with SE giving me the option to block one raid tier from alliance roulettes.

    "But Driavna that will defeat the purpose of the roulettes!" I know, exactly like people lowering their ILvL or not unlocking any other raid. If they can do that I want to be available to block CT.

    Most likely people will also game the ILvL to always get the first of the tree because ILvL makes it easier and faster. Since is one of the reasons certain players already drop ILvL low enough to also skip WoD from CT.

    Content is only interesting when it is new. The novelty quickly wears off, at which point if the content continues to demand my attention and any amount of mental effort without providing anything stimulating in return, it's just tedious and awful.

    CT raids know they're old. They act like they're old. They require no real thought or effort or attention to succeed. You just go in, meme with people in chat while you smack some buttons, and get your stuff 20 minutes later or whatever.

    Subsequent raids still want to pretend they matter. They want to at least require attention, but they haven't been interesting or fun since like a month after they were released. They offer nothing stimulating, and the only "benefit" to being like this is that there's an increased chance of wiping on bosses that already last unnecessarily long for mediocre rewards because every new alliance raid increases the number of strategies people have to remember even as they continue to do each individual fight less and less frequently.

    Are you trying to convince me or yourself?

    Neither. You said you didn't understand something, so I explained it to you. You can take the opportunity to learn and broaden your perspective or you can satisfy yourself with poorly crafted and dismissive one-liners. The choice is yours.
