    Don't roulette then? Group together and queue for specific dungeons.
    Like I mentioned, roulette is meant to fill parties not for you to farm your tomes/exp.
    If you lock spots that newer players needs to advance in their story quest/gear farming and have NO intention of helping out the newer players (only care about your and your friend's roulette bonus) then you don't deserve the bonus.

    But those of us levelling alt classes aren't who the low roulette is for.

    Low roulette exists so people will still be running the lowbie dungeons, to stop new players from having to wait forever just to get into Sastasha for the story quest.
    Sure, maybe queueing with a group of two would be alright, but honestly I don't know how difficult that would be to implement without also allowing bigger parties access, which defeats the point.
    High and Expert roulette are okay, as by the time you're high enough to do those dungeons you should have a network of people to help you clear them for the first time. My FC did this for someone the other day ^^

    They should allow us to go in as a 2 player group for low level roulette I feel. The reasons for them not to allow full groups are quite compelling:
    - Denies spots to people who are levelling up
    - Denies spots to people who need the dungeon for books
    - Denies spots to people running through the main quest

    If you get lockout, you can bypass it just queuing in a party, no need to be a complete light party.

    The exploit will take place if a full premade will be given rights to queue roulette, because roulette bonus.

    I think it is fine being able to queue roulette with friends, but not with a complete party of them. A complete party can go anywhere and "queue" does not have any sense, so the reason it cannot (imho) queue on roulette. This also the reason they can leave with no penalty: none of them queued.

    As alternative, making complete light party enjoy roulette bonus, will gives them the lockout penalty if they leave what roulette gave them. But, if a member have a lockout, the party cannot queue on roulette. This is important to avoid exploits.

    Sure SE forces you to do Low Level Roulette alone, but SE is not forcing you to do Duty Roulette in any way. If you're that concerned about leveling with someone else and not having exp gaps between each other, just make use of Duty Finder selecting the duties you may want to do.

    People tend to forget 2 things mainly:
    1. Roulette rewards are given just once a day.
    2. You are not forced to maximize exp gainning every single time. Not getting roulette rewards (once more, 1 per day) won't bring any doom to your leveling sessions. On a side note, no one will /point at you laughing and shouting "Hahaha you fool not getting Roulette rewards, n00bz!!!!11!!!1!".

    PS. Seriously.

    I guess they could lock commendations for full party who knows.

    I find it weird also.

    Though they probably don't wanna limit others who are searching for party's.

    I think people are missing the point of Duty Roulette. It to help low level people, and make que faster for DPS and to help out everyone. Especially the Low Level one they don't allow Pre made party because they want New Players to be help by other, to make que faster so they don't quit the game. It also help with Dungeon people never do anymore. Especially high people already max level that don't have a point to do those anymore.


    If we all can do Premade Roulette, there will be no Roulette because people just do it with friends and pre made. Can you imagine how long it take for new player or DPS? Also, I enjoy doing Roulette especially the low level even though it take longer is more refreshing then those Speed Run one for a changed.

    I wish they would open the low level roulette for premade groups. When somebody in my FC asks for help in a low level dungeon, not that many people answer them if they have their combat classes levelled to 50 already. If there was a 100 Myth reward, I am sure they would help more often.

    And let's be honest, sometimes the low level dungeons take longer than the Level 50 ones because people in there are new to the dungeon. Yesterday I helped a mate from my FC and we spent mindnumbing 80 minutes in Temple of Quarn because the DD's did not understand the Death sentence mechanics from 1st boss although it was explained in detail and more than once.
