    The roulette is giving the starter 4 dungeons because theres a rather high population of players going through them. Ive been given Brayflox on low level Roulette.
    Honestly, i think you people are exaggerating quite a bit on queue times. I leveled my Monk purely through dungeons in the first month of release, my queue times then were about 25 - 30 minutes each. Now, leveling my DRG in 2.1, my Stone Vigil queues were about 10 minutes each, with one even being instant (pure luck im sure). Hell, even my DD specific queue only took 15 minutes.

    if you REALLY do get 45+ minute queue times, you may be on the wrong server or just playing at the lowest possible DF population times.

    So...wait. I have an issue with the game, come and talk about it, get agreed with, and suddenly all of us are lying. cmon now. If it was going great i wouldnt be here asking for something to fix it, i'd be, you know, in game, enjoying myself.
    Please stop. Loosen the tin foil a little bit.

    EDIT: also, the Duty Finder matches people from all servers, does it not? So there goes that part of your suggestion

    If all servers were in the same DF queue, would not my queue time experience be the same as yours? It is clearly not. I said the claims are being exaggerated. Not that people were telling lies. Without screenshots, recent ones, of being in the queue for 45+ minutes, constantly, on standard 4man dungeons, I'll continue to call the claims exaggerated.
    The average time spent in DF on my DRG has been 10 - 15 minutes.

    If we're all in the same pool, You'd still have periods of low population in the DF, when people are doing dailys, raids, or tome farming.

    Duty Finder IS cross server, next time you go into one ask what server everyone is from, and boom you'll have your answer. You can also change your settings to where you can play with people that speak other languages as well. He may simply just play at a less prime time, or a dungeon that isn't commonly queued for.

    How about just running your intended instances in this case?

    I'm pretty sure you didn't fully comprehend the Roulette's function.

    The queue system absolutely sucks. It should match similarly leveled characters together instead of putting Lv40s in Copperbell every time. The mid-high level dungeons are somewhat fun and repeatable, the low level ones are boring and make me want to stop playing. Its bad enough that you have to deal with new players in random dungeoning. Nobody enjoys sitting in queue for 20 minutes only to have all their hotbars greyed out and then forced to sit through 40 minutes of absolute boredom.

    Either the group creation system is completely flawed or the population is just giving up on dungeons after Copperbell.

    Or, and bear with me here, because this might be crazy...maybe Christmas just passed and a good amount of new players started playing after either getting the game as a gift, or because SE had a 50% off sale right before Christmas? And that's as far as they've gotten?

    Meanwhile, the players who are of level for Brayflox and beyond are likely very few, or people who already played through with one character and are using the Roulette instead of queuing up for the latter dungeons? Therefor not creating much demand for any of the mid-late leveling dungeons?

    Also, did you seriously complain about having to deal with new players? Just...just stop using the Roulette, please.
