Tomestones and Roulette's

[Kyuuen]

Not sure if there's been a thread on this or not and wanted to get peoples thoughts and opinions on the idea.

Currently at level 60, Roulette's award; for completing, Poetics, Law, Esoterics, or some combination thereof.

As it currently stands anything below 60 is only awarded bonus Exp/Gil, forcing you to choose between leveling a class or getting tomestones. Do you think it would be fair to award said tomestones on classes you have yet to get to 60, AS LONG as you already have at least one DoW/DoM leveled to 60? Or do you think this would unbalance the system?

I posted this a few weeks ago and got flamed so hard. I agree with your idea. So +1 from me.

I really wish this is what they would do. The whole point of the roulette was to promote the running of older content. Why should they care whether we do the roulette at max level or not? All that matters is that we are running the content.

Jobs lower than max level don't need tomes to lure them into roulette. They already get exp for it.

I'm not talking about low levels. I'm talking about as a person who has a max level, it shouldn't matter if we run content on that max level class or on a lower level alt, we should still get the tomes so that we can still gear our mains up even if we aren't going into that roulette on the lvl 60. Sacrificing one for the other kind of thing isn't really needed imo as the whole point of roulette was to give an incentive to run older content and for most people tomes are usually the better incentive.

As it stands High lvl roulette is pretty much useless. It gives poetics/Law and no esoterics nor does it give EXP inside the dungeons (just bonus). So as a person who may want to level may not find the roulette bonus that attractive and may just skip it, especially if they're only interested in esoterics. (like myself)

I honestly don't see an issue with allowing you to either choose between exp/tomes or giving both...but that's just me.

The tomestone reward replaces the XP reward for those who can no longer get XP. Maybe a system where you can choose between getting either an XP reward or a tome reward would work, but having some players get both while others get just the tomes wouldn't match up very well.

I think that would definitely be fair, OP.

[SendohJin]

it's totally unfair to get XP and the same number of Tomes as someone who isn't getting XP.

i don't think this change is needed.

I'm not sure I grasp the point of this stance. For the person who wouldn't be getting the exp bonus, would it not be safe to assume the reason they would not be getting the exp bonus is because all of their classes are leveled, or simply has no interest in leveling the other classes?

no, that's not safe to assume. some people are sacrificing not leveling another class so they can get more tomes. that doesn't mean you can say they have no interest in leveling other classes. they just prioritize their time differently. it's blatantly unfair for 2 people to do the same dungeon and one person gets a lot more rewards than the other. the world isn't always fair but the OP specifically asked for us to comment on the fairness of his proposal.
