Splitting out into its own roulette maybe, with separate rewards.

But doing so risks pushing the Alliance Roulette cheesing to a different raid. Whichever one gives the best rewards for the least effort.

Either way, the current solution doesn't stop cheesing. It only punishes overleveled players and serves to funnel gil into the MB for crafters. Cheesers are going to be the first to just buy gear off the MB, or have an alt they leave at 50, or buy a boost, or get a lvl 50 friend to queue with them.

If the current increase in rewards for the other raids isn't enough incentive to stop the cheesing, such that we needed an ilvl limit on the job, then taking MSQ progression into account and the Alliance Raids the player has unlocked will at least alleviate the problem of punishing innocent overleveled players.
It still doesn’t change the fact that if you are overlevelled to the point that you are unable to meet the ilvl requirements you don’t need to be doing the alliance roulette

This change makes it vastly more annoying to ilvl cheese (characters that are already existing have to rely on another person, new players not unlocking the later raids is rare and locks you out from useful things like Bozja)

Saying to check both MSQ and level doesn’t change the fact that if you are overlevelled to the point you are blocked by these requirements you don’t need to do the alliance roulette
