    Bonus reward for tanking

    I caught this on the preview.



    750 extra bonus gil for roles that are needed in this case tank. In the trailer for 2.1 it showed dps was getting the bonus when the warrior was queuing for low level. On Legacy servers 750 gil is almost nothing, it should be something higher like 50k. If this is suppose to provide incentive for the less played roles to queue up solo because (DR requires solo queue to get bonuses) and not play with their FC or friends, 750 gil isn't much of an incentive and SE should consider raising it.

    Obviously their goal is to make queues faster for other solo players on dps jobs, but offering such a small reward will probably not make much difference, or get more tanks to queue up instead of going with their FC.

    Running dungeons shouldn't be more profitable than crafting. The money is there as extra incentive, an offset to the repair costs of running dungeons, not as a major form of income.

    The real prize is the tomestones.

    Probably just clarifying your current role, just like guildhests. So in turn everyone got that 750gil regardless if that's the case.

    If not, w/e. Duty Roullette is pretty much when your FC isn't available.

    BAHAHAHA 50k?!

    Is this what it feels like to be on a legacy server? To need 50 THOUSAND gil to be considered a reward?

    I'm just gunna go.

    lmao.

    Should be somewhat higher if they want to get more tanks to queue for random high level dungeons. I would say 50k seems to be a better number to me. As a tank I never solo queue for dungeons because I rather get myth cap done fast with 10 min runs with FC people. Solo queuing is required for duty roulette.
    Again, this is more for the casual players. There's no way SE could prevent a group of decked out players from finishing a dungeon in super fast time. After all, you guys have earned those high lvl armors and weapons so you're entitled to finishing dungeons quicker than someone with lesser gears. This duty roulette reward is aimed more towards the newbie tanks in AF1 gears who can't quite do speedrun wp just yet. 40 myth tomes is a lot to him.

    That's what I'm wondering. Is it myth or philo. If it's myth that's a nice incentive to help out on a dungeon you normally do not get any from.

    So not going over this one again. Essentially, the person you are quoting needs to only worry about their own personal wealth. Plenty of money is being generated in the economy. The economic fallout that everyone was QQ'ing about would have happened already.

    I am pretty sure they are myth tomes. If you watch the video, you will see a better view of the Philo and Myth tomes.
