    [REQUEST] Oversized party in duty finder

    We already have undersized party for those solo and un-synced players so it would make sense to have an oversized party feature those who want to learn what it is like to be in an 8 player raid environment. Will also help those who haven't done end game raiding a feel for what it is like to run older/newer raid content and learn the rotations for things like tank swaps and buff management.

    Then take them to a old raid?

    Really 4 man dungeons is no where but for 8 people so things like tank swapping wont be needed.

    It would be for the casual players who are somewhat interested in raiding so they go from Casual to Midcore raiders. And the duty roulettes should also be allowed oversized parties for the speed runners that want their daily rewards.

    The point of the roulette is to try and get players into older content to help newer players to progress. Not a speed run for tomes.

    Otherwise new players would be stuck for ever if players could simply unsync msq roulette and smash it at 70.. or clear sastasha normal in 3 minutes in a lucky levelling roulette.

    If you could undersize oversize roulettes new players and there queues would never fill up meaning theyd be blocled in the story

    I said "OVERsized" not "UNDERsized" and the is huge difference. OVERsized would still be synced but with more people, while UNDERsized is for those who just want they clear from older content because they couldn't play the catch up game.

    currently in the game duty finder duties default to synched with echo enabled meaning that this already exists in the game by turning off the undersized option. you can even default to a minimum i level requirement to do all instances when they were first released it just people don't use these synch and minimum ilvl modes cause they want to get in and get out most of the time. i can only see the oversized option from what you posted meaning your lvl and the bosses lvl are the same thus it recuires the player to still do mechanics and get hit hard by said instance which is what i originally thought that was what unsynch was going to do back in the day. this and legacy mode (minimum ilvl no echo) is what i think should be in the game to be honest.
