    Roulette offers no challenge.

    Most people are in ilevel 80-90 gear. It's strange that the most challenging roulette is the low level roulette.

    Everything else is a complete faceroll, and it's mind numbing. Pharos Sirius was a good challenge level.

    The new dungeons were engaging the first few runs, but unfortunately the difficulty level is far too low to remain engaging for anything "farm" worthy. I actually enjoyed landing on Pharos and developing new strategies each time for smoother runs each time.

    The only mechanic I actually pay attention to in any of the roulettes now is Diabolos' Ominous Ruin, but unfortunately it only takes one person to carry a whole group through the whole fight.

    What happened with this new dungeons?

    They noticed that 3/4 of the playerbase immediately quit out of pharos when it popped.

    Not everything in game must be extremely challenging, If you want some challenge go coil.

    I wondering how bad an ilvl sync would enrage the community. Honestly though, people just seem to want to run through roulette as fast as possible, get their tome and get out.

    I thought roulette was more for keeping people running dungeons and helping with queue times, not for challenge. I get where you're coming from, but I think you mean that dungeons in general aren't challenging.

    I'm pretty sure they wanted to make it a rewarding experience in a couple different ways but not make it too much of a challenge. I'm fine with that considering the types of people I get grouped with occasionally, and I just genuinely find dungeons fun like many parts of the game...If you are looking for a challenge new Coil turns and extreme primals are -----> that way.

    this guy gets it.


    if you want challenge, that is what raids and extreme trials are for. dungeons are not challenging by design.

    I'd actually be ok with a rare mount dungeon drop, possibly more than one. As long as they aren't more unicorns.
