This all being said however, Alexander was a horrible raid tier in terms of balancing. Omega with any luck will actually be balanced propperly this time and the first turns being entry tier. Even then though in hard content its still better to take the best options available to you when there is limited spots, its also more prevelent in this game as you can level all jobs on one character so you can refuse to take a WAR for example and nobody would really bat an eye because then anyone who actually wanted in to the group would simply level and get good at what the group is looking for, in other MMOs its not quite so simple.
