Please equalize rewards between Castrum and Prae

I don't think there's a turning back for SE at this point.
I just wish they include any other MSQ related dungeons into the so-called "MSQ Roulette".

Like which ones? No other dungeon in the game behaves the way Castrum and Prae do, and that is why they have their own roulette. And since the devs vowed to never design content in that fashion for FFXIV ever again, these are the only two that are, and will ever be applicable for that roulette. We can explore the semantics behind the word "roulette", but it won't move the concrete.

Fact remains that this roulette is totally optional. The exp, tomes, and gil are all obtainable through other means; some of which are more efficient choices for the player, so there is totally no obligation to do this roulette at all. That being said, it is quite easy for someone like myself to surmise that players are deliberately queuing into this roulette to find something to complain about, or they actually enjoy the brainless content for the amount of time they are in there so they can kick their feet up while getting some crazy easy EXP or tomes.

Which one? The ones that are required to progress through the MSQ, of course (Main Scenario Roulette; CM and Prae aren't the only 'main scenario dungeons'). Of course it's just a wishful thought of mine as that idea means they have to rework all the other roulettes to compensate the changes. (i.e. dividing the MSQ and the optional unlockable ones). To dwell further into this thought however will inevitably stray further from the OP's topic though, so I'll stop right here.

And I hard agree with you that they are never ever be mandatory. It is however understandable how easy one can 'trick themselves' and disenchanted by the way SE present the content (MSQ roulette) and the 'looks-hefty' reward. I don't really complain how the MSQ roulette works since I do understand why SE made those changes.
