    Roulette really random?

    Hi I have a question about the high level roulette and the low level roulette, every day I farm myth with those option since I love to do dungeons and why not? help low level players to complete those dungeons as well. However every time I roll high level roulette I get Amdapor Keep keep or Pharos Sirius and on low level I always get Tam-Tara Deepcroft or Thousand Maws of Toto-Rak that's it and It has been like that for almost 2 weeks. I would like to run the other dungeons as well and getting tired of the same dungeons that sometimes I just leave the dungeon and farm with hunts (which I hate). Is there any reason for this or I'm just having the worst luck ever with the roulette or maybe everyone likes those dungeons for a reason? Please let me know. Thanks in advance.

    It's random but it's still based on what class cues for what dungeons. As a healer those are on the top of what I end up getting. As a tank it's usually the beginning dungeons, AK or haukke, and as a dps I get the whole variety.

    Makes sense because I always roll as a healer but stills weird that as a healer I get those dungeons, nobody wants to heal those dungeons or what? I'm still leveling my monk and my marauder just for a little change doing those dungeons, but is a pain to level up now since I dont have much time because of my work =(

    Most players who are leveling their alt classes will of course immediately jump into dungeon the moment they hit the level requirement. Because they want the reward for roulette so they have to get to level 16 to use it. level 16 happens to be the minimum for Tamtara so everyone of any higher level will be queued into that place. AK is part of the relic quest and Pharos is one of the dungeon needed to clear for Animus Book.

    I cant speak for your high lv queue but I can for the low lv. Both myself and my two roomates see thousand maws or tam tara almost exclusively in the low lv queue, its really annoying.

    Just pick some random dungeons, you'll miss the rewards, but at least it'll change the play for you.

    It's not even really supposed to be random so much as tossing you into whichever group has been waiting the longest for your role. I'm not sure why it would necessarily be those specific dungeons, but I guess AK would get a bit more traffic since it comes up in Animus books and is part of the relic quest. Early dungeons tend to get more traffic in low level roulette because of the number of people leveling straight through as well as those only leveling a bit to get cross class skills. I think all or most of the dungeons come up in the Animus books so that should be a wash I think...

    Maybe...if everyone queue as roulette, then the system will give this group the most idle dungeon as for load-balancing?

    As mentioned above, the duty roulette is not meant to be random. It simply queues you up for a dungeon that another group needs your job for. This means that if more people do certain dungeons, you will get put into those dungeons more often.
