    And eventually, those same roulette that they are running will likely no longer be relevant enough to help those same lower level players. Consider the end-game player that has achieved their wanted shinies from the latest content, and has completed their relic already. Expert is the last 3 dungeons added... everything else is moved back to high or low roulette. The only "incentive" for them at that point is basically poetics or glamours for secondary jobs. 6 Experts, once a day caps poetics. Unless they want to rush to cap them, not much incentive there to do anything else that might assist new players. Any other form of currency can be farmed via alternative methods--with little to no chance of assisting new players there either. And if they want gear to glamour... they may have to spam spam spam a dungeon to get it, and may not even be using roullete, but spamming select dungeons---and they likely won't have the patience for a lot of hand-holding either. If it gets too tedious, they may just give up on glamouring those items, especially if they get wind of an even more attractive set on the horizon in upcoming content.

    We are already on the cusp of a lot of this older content becoming irrelevant to a growing sector of the player base. And there is so much potential for it to become even more irrelevant to a larger group of players once 3.0 hits. If they really want them to run this older content to help older players... the LAST thing they need to do is ramp up more restrictions on the content.
