Skipping cutscenes in MSQ Roulette

[Fynlar]

Honestly, some of ya'll are pushing really hard on this - do ya'll really want the old skippable version with the old rewards (that don't make it worth running much either) that much? Or do you actually think they'd let you skip but keep the boosted XP and tomestone reward?

I don't really give a rat's ass what they do to MSQ roulette at this point (I did it only rarely before, I never do it anymore), but that roulette is not the only one these dungeons appear in, and therefore I still have a stake in the matter.

The cut scenes don't make old players not run off and leave new people though. (replying to a much older comment). #feelsbad

All this thread has done is show how much the mentor system needs to go, and have the mount and crown deleted. Absolutely disgusting. You CHOSE to be a mentor, smart one. You knew what you were signing up for. Dear lord. Mentors guide new people. Apparently, you lot need to learn the meaning of the word.

That's exactly what mentors do, and why they're not needed in Praetorium/castrum. Call us when a bot couldn't fill the slot.

I like running MSQ to help out still. I see some interesting conversations, catch up on some shows, or literally make food lol.

I just remember running MSQ Pra for the first time a couple of a couple of months after 2.0 launch and missed out on the fights. As soon as the cutscene was done and I try to catch up, the next cut scene was up, and so on. it sucked. I remember one run in Pra where a new person asked if they could slow down so they can watch the cut scenes, poor person got yelled at. So yea MSQ Roulette is just that, a way to help run it. You need Poetics, go run CoB unsynced with a new person. cut scenes are skip-able and you get the bonuses still for unsynced and way more poetics than MSQ roulette.

Wow. The attitudes of the mentors in this thread. You ARE misusing Mentor and the roulette, especially since it forces your crown on. You're expected to help in ANY duty it gives you, even if that help is just to occupy a slot, and finish it. Stow the selfish entitled attitude, or stop using the Mentor Roulette, as you've missed the point entirely. You're not good mentors, you're not even good people.

please elaborate on that. if you normal queue for this duty and you happen to have the mentor crown unlocked, but not displayed on the status, does this duty force it out (even thou not displayed,for the duration of the duty it is displayed?)? or is it just a mentor roulette thing?i haven't notice it displaying mine..

It only forces your crown on if you pull this out of mentor roulette.

I can tell you every single time I do MSQ roulette, which is daily for the Genesis tomes, there is a new player. Tons of people are catching up or just starting prior to ShB. So it's unfair for these people to be rushed through it. Now, it would be nice if the game had a way to flag who had not completed the dungeon before and could queue them together, but not sure that is really feasible.

I do think for the TIME it takes, the MSQ Roulette should up the Genesis tomes to 100 from 50. However, I will say the fact you can get around 4 million XP per run makes it worth it if you are trying to level quickly.
