Please Reconsider MSQ Changes

[Krotoan]

I told him how you had to sit through the the cut scenes, and he immediately did no want to bother with.

I'd say that's pretty sad for someone that's only been playing a month.

I'd say it's pretty sad that someone was disappointed and trepidatious that they had to watch a story in this story driven game.

A small story:

Yesterday I suddenly got a tell from someone I dont even know. They asked me if I can help with the MSQ roulette since the time to wait for this is over 30 minutes and they want to finally reach 70. It was late at night and one of the MSQ dungeons so I said no. I did sent him the question why he is not running another dungeon but got no true answer back. So it seems that the waiting time for DDs has already increased to 30 minutes, at least in that case.

I haven't done much msq in the last year.
Increase exp to 2x what it is now,
Increase tomes to include new tomes. Say 200/100/20.

They could just make the cutscenes skippable when doing both dungeons unsynced. Then those who want to rush through it can do so with the help of a friend, and those who want to experience it the intended way can wait in queue to do so. Additionally the MSQ roulette should count for the newest tank mount achievements. This could speed up the queue times a bit.

Only if it'll give you two ticks for the achiev because you can easily run 2 other instances that count for the same amount of time spent in there. Maybe more depending on content and how capable your party is. For instance, you could probably run 3, maybe even 4 Susano or Lakshmi ex runs for the same amount of time.

The XP increase would have to be double of what it is now for me to go back in there. Also more gil would be required as well for me to go back.

The MSQ roulette is just nothing but spamming button to get through cutscene after cutscene when they should have just made it 2 solo instances.

I dont think more experience points will be enough, in the end everyone will reach max level with their class. A better solution would be to add the newest tomestones and both gathering and crafting scrips. If SE finds this to much, then add a new currency that players can trade in for minions, mounts, glamour, newest tomes, gathering and crafting scrips.

This way there will always be an incentive to do this roulette. I only have Ninja left as battle class, the moment she reaches level 70, I will stop doing the MSQ. To lure players like myself, SE needs to add stuff that we want.

I'm avoiding Main Scenario queues now simply because of this change. 5-10 mins of actual fighting with new players still unable to keep up to fight the bosses, 1 hour of cutscenes. I don't care about the increased reward, this is total garbage and solves nothing! I don't even want to do them on my lower level characters that could benefit from the xp.

Hate it. The option to skip before was better. I'll take the devil I know and would rather have the option to experience all content with a faster queue pop, rather than feeling gated and waiting over 40+ minutes to play a crucial part of the story. Someone said it before, but the "bad ass" moment you had when you completed this old raid was more prominent when this game launched - people's item level nowadays murders all the mobs so quickly the "epicness" is lost because you don't even finish dropping your dots. I look forward to the fix incoming

Just went in Main scenario without realizing this change... had time to browse internet, get drinks and make food. Unless they increase the amount of exp you get in there I don't think I will be doing that roulette xD
