    Please add new main story quess to Main Scenario roulette

    I understand this is intended for new players, but it's a roulette with only 2 dungeons in it, so it's 50/50.

    My suggestion is, put storyline Primal fights into Main Scenario roulette e.g. Shiva, Ravana, Bismarck etc, and make Trial Roulette only have side-quest Primals like Hard Mode fights, Gilgamesh, Ultros, Odin, etc.

    It's really boring that Main Scenario roulette is only 2 missions, not much of a 'roulette' if there's only 2 choices.

    They should at least add the Aetherochemical Research Facility, because it is really a main scenario dungeon*.

    *meaning: 1) You need it for game completion, 2) you geet no XP, 3) there is no loot and 4) it's not available in any "Random: xxx" right now


    Since you don't need all trials for "Random: Trial" now, they sure can make it so, that <60 players only get the 2.x MSQ-dungeons and all lvl60-players (who completed story) get's all three to choose from.

    The Main Scenario Roulette is already like that: It only requires you to "meet the requirements for two or more duties"

    As someone playing through the content for the first time, I have to say that having experienced players coming into them is as much a bad thing as it is good. Yes, it's better queue times and having an experienced tank/healer really helps. But you all seem to expect us to one shot something you probably died on while you were learning. Then you vote to disband after one or two wipes.

    I saw it on titan, i saw it on garuda and i saw it on westwind.

    And herein lies the problem with roulettes and every attempt to get veteran players to play with newer players. Most veteran players don't want to run that old content, especially those of us that did the Relic Weapon and light grind, and for good reason. But on the other hand, we also make it nigh impossible for new players to enjoy those dungeons their first time through, and are generally less patient with them. I've also seen this happen, even when someone said they were brand new. It also discourages new players from learning their jobs, specifically tanks, when a DPS is so high-geared and powerful even when level-synched that they can effectively tank enemies on their own. It's a shame, really.

    On topic: I'd like to see some of the roulettes expand, but I worry that it'll only make things hard for newer players.

    as a new player, who just hit 50 the other day, i like how everything functions for me as it is. i have hardly had a bad group and most players when I mention this is my first run through have been really helpful. but i also took the time to look over the dungeon using Wiki to have an idea of boss fights. I also havent dont many 50+ dungeons minus the MQ end content for RRB so I can speak on the Hard trials or anything more veteran players probably queue for
