Alliance roulette changes is needed

most of the population doesnt read patch notes, lol [read patch 5.1 patch notes]

Funny you should say that. I DO read patch notes, and i dont remember that being mentioned. I just spent a couple mins with the 5.1 notes, and "find in page" is unable to find any reference to this. I tried about a dozen searches i thought might work(roulette, item level, syrcus, etc) along with a full reading of the known and resolved issues. So please, enlighten us. Where precisely is this said? Be specific. If this is something we're all wrong about, allow us to learn.

His post is worded poorly.

Point: Everyone has CT unlocked as it is part of the MSQ.
Counterpoint: The thirsty players who see 2B thighboots will immediately rush to run it.

One thing to note: if anyone likes the Nier raids, it's in their active interest to roll "Need" on the 2B pack at the end of Copied Factory, ensuring further runs of it.

His post is worded poorly.

There are currently 5 points making CT runs the most common. People leveling classes below 60, people doing their required one CT series for story, none of the other alliance raids being required, people who never unlock the other alliance raids, and people cheating via ilvl(and yes, there can be overlap between those categories). Theres nothing to be done about people below level 60(this alone is probly enough to ensure a bottom-heavy distribution). First-timer runs will always be a thing, but they are the minority. They arent likely to push any of the other alliance raids into the MSQ requirement category(and thus, people who never unlock them either due to disinterest or to purposefully keep them out of the roulette will always be a thing). But can they fix the ilvl issue? They should be able to. Id love to know how big a difference it would make.

The person i quoted, however, literally said that ilvl isnt a thing. That the issue was "fixed" in patch 5.1(so over 2 years ago). And that apparently, none of the people arguing the other side were informed because he reads patch notes and no one else does. As i pointed out, i do read patch notes and couldnt find his supposed fix when i went back to look for it. If there actually was a fix, id like to see the documentation for it. If im wrong, id like to correct that. Which is why i asked for the specific citation. He never did respond, so im forced to assume that im still right that the issue was never taken care of.
