    Not to mention the parts in LotA that require 4 people per pad. Or with a single group, ALL pots would make the same group invis on that one guy right before KB? Or, now trying to tank 3 Vassago apart plus kill adds, with 8 man?

    Yeah, don't do a CT roulette, instead do a raid roulette of sorts.

    They changed it for T11 why they wouldn't do it for the CT

    1. You need 3 groups
    2. You can't divide 8 with 3
    3. Because of this it have to be 3, 6 or 9 players, not 8
    4. Best would be 12 players, 4 in each group

    This actually seems pretty reasonable. You'd still definitely need three groups because of things like Atomos (in both LotA and WoD) where the parties actually get split up separately from each other.

    as a relativly new player, i whole heartedly support a roulette system to get people doing the crystal tower raids. I REALLY want to do these, but can never get a group for it.

    3x4 would make a lot of sense, falling back to the standard 1 tank, 1 healer, 2 dps we're used to from dungeons.

    It is a shame that the raids were made with specific "Be three groups or fail" mechanics.

    They'll bring back the CT series to popularity with the newest relic line, of course:

    "To progress with your new relic you'll need an item drop from the end of each raid with a drop-rate of an Onion Knight card. You then need to outroll the rest of the raid alliance.

    Please look forward to it."

    I would never go T5; T9, T12 and T13 with random people. T7, T8, T10 and T11 if you really force me. Don't forget that if ther's roulette, it will be synch.

    This is were a lot of MMO fail after they launch new xpac, all the old end game content falls to the way side. It's sad because most of the content is still good for end game and new players still should experience it. Currently I think they should add 4 weekly quest, one for CT and three for Coil (1, 2, Final). The reward would be a Tomes you can use to purchase items specific to that raid.

    *piece of CT armor - 1 Crystal Tome
    *piece of Coil Armor - 1 Dreadwyrm Tome
    *new flying mount based on retro FF - 5 Crystal Tomes
    *new flying mount based on Coil - 10 Dreadwyrm Tomes
    *FF3 based Chocobo Barding - 5 Crystal Tomes
    *Bahamut based Chocobo Barding 10 Dreadwyrm Tomes
    *xp scroll - 1 Crystal Tome
    *xp scroll - 1 Dreadwyrm Tome
    *Doman upgrade item - 1 CT or Dreadwyrm Tome

    The quest themselves are simple enough. CT, you must complete all three for reward. Coil, complete T1-T5 for first quest, T6-9 for second quest, and T10-13 third quest.

    Weekly run for upgrade is already the case for WoD. But you can't ask to run lvl 50 content to upgrade lvl 60 content.
