    "Sorry friends and FC mates, I know this is a multiplayer game, but I can't help you with roulettes or specific-queue activities since I have a lot of MSQ XP to earn and should only be using the roulette XP bonus to catch up on secondary jobs." What an awful attitude to have! Bonus XP from roulettes isn't a catch up mechanism, it's a bribe to get people to do roulettes to help people get through story content. Roulettes are 100% intended to be done while progressing through the MSQ.

    Also, the idea of switching between jobs to avoid over-leveling is bogus. I already had to limit the activities I had available and stop doing non-MSQ quests to limit XP gain and prevent being 15+ levels higher than the progression point I was at. I have a main character (the one I'm posting on) to do the multiple job thing on. The alt in question is a single job tank; I have no interest in doing other jobs on her. I would argue that the dev team intend for people to play through the MSQ on a single job and not switch between multiple ones while going through the game the first time.

    The dev team intentionally increased XP gain through the MSQ to help new players get to higher levels more quickly so they can play with their higher level friends sooner. They changed a fundamental mechanic of the game, so it's not uncalled for to ask to have another fundamental mechanic (gear progression) be adjusted to align with the deliberately increased XP gain.
