    Duty Roulette Pre-50: No preforms?

    (Apologies if this has been touched on before but this has been bouncing around in my head for awhile now.)

    Okay, so the Expert, Level 60, and Level 50 roulette can all be done with any measure of a preformed party. The question I would like to pose to the Devs is why can't the others?

    Leveling, Trials, Guildhest, and Frontline (can somewhat understand Main Scenario) all are required to be done solo, which to me makes no sense. Only thing I can think of is the Devs are afraid that the "Adventure in Need" Bonus would get exploited. That in it self is an easy fix, just disable it for preforms of any number.

    I know this isn't a major thing, but for friends that want to do things together, this little hiccup in the system is kind of annoying.

    Before anyone decides to chime in, Yes, I know you can flag individual content that would fall into those categories, but lets face it, queue times can be a total pain and some do enjoy the surprise (or groan) factor of a random selection.

    They talked about this in a letter a while back, can't remember their specific reasoning, something to do with new players or something like that. I'll see if I can find it

    Leveling Roulette and Trials roulette are designed so that new players running duties for the first time have shorter queues.

    If everyone could run preformed, it would drastically change that.

    The pre 50 roulettes are meant to be played solo and the bonus is exactly for that. It is fine, as it is.

    You can mark ~5 or 6 dungeons. Do it, and you will have your "random selection".
