[Dev request] Job roulette

[ElHeggunte]

Lately, I've been starting to having a problem if deciding which job I want to play next in expert roulette, and thought wouldn't it be nice to have a job roulette to pick for me for dungeon #5628? Can we please get a job roulette kinda like mount roulette, but it only picks on what's in the equipment sets, or has someone already made a macro of this?

Step 1: Find an empty tissue box. Or any kind of opaque box with a hole in the top.
Step 2: Write down the jobs you're able to play on little slips of paper. Put the paper in the box.
Step 3: Shake the box.
Step 4: Reach in the box and remove one of the slips of paper. Queue as the job you drew out.

There's your roulette.

so what? On LV 60 the difference is so small, most people won't even notice.

But while you're at it, don't forget people like me who select none of those but take the MP instead

Are you saying you put your bonus stat points into piety..?

Am i reading this right?

[YGSLlew]

well, let's be honest. This whole attribute-point system for level up is not more than a good-for-nothing proxy system to give a "I have a choice!" feeling. Nothing more. It's worthless for all classes, given the numbers in your attributes, you reach at lv 60 anyway.

all these people complaining about SCH with INT mustve never actually played SCH

Wo wo wo hold on! Your going over board, I wasn't talking revamping the system to make it where you can end up in a dungeon with any random job that you have in your gear set. I talking about something along the lines of and then maybe que for dungeon or whatever.

Ohh.. I see.. so you want the system to pick your job first, then you que for whatever dungeon/raid you like. Well, I thought my idea was more benefitial.. But, oh well. I feel kinda lame now lol.

1. Play a job that has a bonus on DF.
2. Play a job that is Spirit Bonding stuff.
3. Arrange your jobs in order from 1 ~ 13 with Blm & Smn at the bottom and roll a 12 sided dice. Then if it lands on a 12 flip a coin, heads =Blm & tails =Smn.
4. Pick one you invested time onto being good at.

That makes more sense. Isn't it possible to make a macro that could randomly change jobs outside combat/dungeons/scenario? It would have to work off the saved gear sets so how would it avoid randomly changing you to a Craft or Gatherer job or tell it to random you by level? If its a random button for the gear/job presets you make how would it filter them by ilevel or by War/Hand/Field types. It would just cycle and pick from whatever gear set you saved regardless.

Well, I guess instead of hitting the roulette button until you get a DoW or DoM job your just going to be stuck going into the dungeon with a Culinarian job. Hopefully, your souffle can help save the day.


But, in all seriousness you just keep hitting the button until you get something you can run a dungeon with, kinda like if you don't get the right flying mount, and get stuck looking up fat chocobo butt. (Shiver)

Honestly it doesn't sound as bad as people are trying to make it. When you save your gear set the ilv is saved to that as well. Let it pick the class and decide the role needed for that dungeon, picks the role that matches the required criteria and minimum ilv, done.
