    Frizze,

    Ignore what others had said. If you get a Dungeon, you are getting more EXP then the lump sum of queing in the roulette. It is actually better for you to get a dungeon rather than a trial. A trial that should not belong in a LEVELING roulette. Leveling roulette requires a dungeon to actually LEVEL in. It makes no sense whatever to put a TRIAL outside of the TRIAL Roulette. Most people do not get that or are too ignorant to understand this simple logic. Individual targets+roulette gain = win. Not just the roulette lump sum at the end. I would rather do an entire dungeon in a LEVELING roulette than do a Trial just to get a lump sum.

    But you'd get more exp doing a trial, then queuing for your highest dungeon. You're not counting the time saved that is better spent doing something other than a low level dungeon.

    Do you even math bro? Here let me spell it out since you're simple. Leveling roulette can queue you into any dungeon or trial, including Satasha, for instance. You get the most exp from running the highest level dungeon you can run. Let's say that takes 30 minutes, we won't even count queue times. To compensate for level difference there is a fairly large exp bonus on running a lower level instance however individual kill exp does not change, just the end bonus. So, let's say Satasha takes 20 minutes and ifrit normal mode takes 5. The individual kill exp for a lvl 59 character in satasha adds up to a negligible, I'd go so far as to say invisible amount. The roulette bonus may fill 20% of your bar though, whereas the ifrit normal filled 18% (due to it being slightly higher level). 18% for 5 minutes is better than 20% for 25 minutes. Do you get it now?

    This is incorrect. Your experience gets synced to the level you get synced to. So running the dungeon synced to level 20 would give you the same % of a level as if you were level 20.
    Your experience and level get unsynced when the dungeon is over. So the experience gained is multiplied. 150k experience at level 20 is equivalent to 600k+ at level 50.

    That isn't how level sync works at all. Your required exp to level remains the same. If you are level 59 and you get level synced to 20, you still require 3,888,000 exp to obtain level 60, not 56,600 (exp required for 21). If what you think was true, people would only run Sastasha to level as you can pretty much get a full level every time you run it.

    How to say this...

    Nope. You're wrong.

    You are basing your statement off of personal preference. The XP you gain in a leveling dungeon from killing the monsters isn't significantly different than what you could make via other means in the time that you save. Of course, this is moot since it seems that the quicker grind is to queue for your daily leveling roulette, then queue for your daily trial roulette, then queue for your daily main scenario roulette, then queue for your daily guildhest. An hour well spent (with a tank queue, anyway)
