Dear Duty Roulette:

[Sylve]

Im getting 190k+ on clear, and 1650 xp per kill in Halatali as a 44 DRG ... I'd say its well worth 25 minutes of my time to clear simple dungeons.

that was exactly my point. if he has 6 dungeons unlocked (!!!!!!!!!) for that class, then half of the dungeons he's queuing for are the low level dungeons. and that's only provided he's the lowest level member of his group, which chances are, he's not. so that drops the chance of getting anything but a starter dungeon even lower.

we're really talking about a silly issue anyway, since he hinted at queueing for the higher level dungeons the regular way but that makes him having to wait longer - which he doesn't want to do.
frankly, I'm not even sure how this is going to work anyway, because if SE ever decided to actually give us a 'mid-level' DF they would more or less .not. include stuff like Toto Rak and Haukke in that. hell, they would probably not even include Brayflox. it would completely defeat the purpose of the DF if the really low level dungeons had their own DF because nobody would ever queue for them.


edit: fixed some insomnia-fcks :P

...Duty roulette is not a person. They will not receive this message.

Don't be too quick to assume that the system isn't biased just because there's a reasonable story around the evidence.

It makes sense that the lower level dungeons are in high demand because low level players queue for them and don't have access to higher level dungeons. This creates a greater chance of getting a lower level dungeon than a high one.

It's also possible the dungeon selection algorithm is broken and that it prefers low level dungeons over higher level dungeons, even when everyone is eligible for higher level dungeons.

I've been doing daily low level roulettes. Anecdotally I get Ifrit a lot (often several times in a row). I haven't seen any primal besides Ifrit, and no dungeon greater than Toto Rak (which I got once, usually get Sastasha, Copperbell, or Tam Tara). It seems possible that roulette is working correctly, but it could also be broken.

I've done the Duty Roulette for a week now, and have never seen any other dungeon than Halatali.
