    There’s already a mechanism that recognizes if someone in the party hasn’t cleared the fight. If there’s a first time bonus - lower the max ilvl and grant bonus exp. Otherwise leave it as is. Roulettes aren’t just there for new people, they’re also for people who want the daily exp boost as quickly as possible. If there’s nobody new to the fight there’s no point making it longer/more annoying to complete.

    That's where you are wrong though. Roulettes exist solely to make sure old content is filled with enough people for new players to go through it smoothly. The experience and tomes that you get are just the bait that is being used to lure old players in to help out. Besides, we are talking about trials. Even if the max ilvl is lowered it wont make it into some long and arduous experience. It will maybe add 2 or 3 minutes on to the fight. If you are there for the rewards alone then that's really not much, but it can absolutely make the difference between a good experience and a bad one for new players.

    Where am I wrong? As I said in the quote, if there are new players, sync it. otherwise why sync it? If you've seen it before, no need to add more time to the fight. your argument is for new players, cool, I agree with that. my argument is if there are no new players in the party, no need to sync it. rewards are reduced if there are no new players, so it should be faster.

    This shouldn't be limited just to some trials, most, if not all content should have reasonable ilvl sync, ideally ilvl of BiS when it was current. I've just got p1n in roulette and poor guy died in less than 4 minutes and we barely charged 1.5 LB. If this is intentional design, then it needs some serious rethinking.
