I personally found that queueing as a tank/healer tended to get me put into 'mundane' things like MSQ roulettes more frequently, so I started to queue as a DPS with 'join in progress' enabled instead. That seemed to make it it much more common for me to be queued into 'obscure' 8+ player duties, namely EX trials which I genuinely enjoyed doing.
I find that rather interesting. When I qued as DPS with those settings I'd get pulled into a lot of alliance, dungeons, trials, and guildhests. The only EX I'd routinely get pulled into was Rathalos. Queing as Tank or Healer mostly got me dungeons and EX with little variance. We are on the same world too. Did you do most of your queing at a certain time/patch?
