Didn't you know? Everyone goes to Aether for content now.

I always found my roulette queues to be fastest on crystal, but overall more knowledgeable players on aether when it comes to dungeon mechs etc

[DiaDeem]

games dead, what do you expect tbh

[Turnintino]

Yeah I wish people ran those raids more. I know SE adjusted it so people couldn't get into lower level alliance raids based on item level but it doesn't seem to work as intended. I could be wrong but whenever I do it I seem to get either ARR or Endwalker.

Because CT raids are still the only ones required for MSQ progression -- and they're the lowest level. Even without ilvl cheese, they're always going to be the most likely to pop, statistically.

As for Myths, that's because of the coins; they're still relevant for those gearing up alt jobs or otherwise playing catch-up.

Nier is so lucky they have glams people want quite a lot, if not cannot imagine you could ever do those ever again

[VictorSpoils]

Gee, if only Mentor Roulette could help fill slots in those abysmal Alliance Raid queues...

[Limecat]

Start making all optional content not-optional for MSQ progress once it's two expansions in the past. Good idea or not, I've grown tired of old story threads from that stuff not being tied into future events, and it would have the added effect of forcing at least a few more people to run them.

And of all Duties to put in the Mogpendium they've chosen Crystal Tower raids, because... huh?

If only there was a way to encourage people to play unpopular duties besides events. Like special items and increased rewards accomodating the length of the Duty. But small indie company SE can't afford that.

I think once a player has finished an expansion they should be required to do the relevant alliance raids before queueing for the roulette again, like how mentor roulette needs to be unlocked again whenever there are new duties.
For example, if a new player finishes Shadowbringers then the alliance raid roulette should have a lock icon and list The Copied Factory, The Puppet's Bunker, and the Tower at Paradigm's Breach as prerequisites to unlock it.
I know people would complain about not being able to do it for however long it takes them to get the next raids unlocked but I don't think it's a big deal, you won't die if you can't queue for alliance roulette for a couple days or a week.
And maybe move crystal tower to MSQ roulette, but they're probably too short for that, Idk.

Remember how shb had quests tied to relics that had people doing like all the content... If we had that in this expansion those queues would pop more during this drought leading into DT. SE is damned either way, people complain about having to do stuff or not having anything to do.

Y'know , even though they're alliance raids I can get behind that idea since they're mandatory for MSQ now
