    In a similar way, Normal Raids roulette is almost always Fist of the Father. Because out of 8 people, the lowest level job in the matching system is probably 60-69, dragging all the higher level ones into the only raid they can be matched into.

    The difference with Normal Raids roulette is you can't argue Alexander is required by the MSQ.
    Uh no.

    Back then it was mostly CT because:
    A - The pool of available raids was smaller
    B - People where ilvl cheesing en masse to the point you almost always saw someone switch gear in the duty

    Only Fist of the father is also subjective imo.
    I get 8 man raids across the board with most being Shb and DT actually. The 8 man raids are way better spread out across the board.

    I really wish they would have the balls to just use things from the optional content for MSQ and tell everyone who refuses to do them to suck it up and complete them if they want to experience the entire story or find another solution because it's becoming ridiculous with all the tiptoeing.
