Alliance Roulette problem

Do people really wipe constantly and vote abandon WoD? I have never seen that. I rarely see any wipes there at all. Most WoD runs only take slightly longer than the average LotA.

I’ve seen a handful of them. Usually people not going into Cerberus’ stomach or people playing chicken with the fetters after the stomach phase—seen it more than once recently where they try to time it to the end of the Reawakening cast, but end up losing the chain and then can’t get it back to him in time (hello, 16 stacks of Haste). However, I still see wipes to Ancient Flare in LotA because people want to try to burn the boss. So it’s about the same. Haven’t seen a WoD Vote Abandon in a long time—at least, not on Aether.

Personally, I’m sick of Crystal Tower every day. So I’d be all for enforcements to prevent item level cheesing.

Personal experience is that, due to not knowing/following mechanics, roughly 1 in 3 fail outright, and 2 in 3 have at least one wipe. I've had two Orbonne runs since it became "old content" (aka 5.0), and both failed at Cid. And I've seen dozens of similar complaints on reddit/discord.

Never experienced that myself.
Never had a vote abandon in WoD, worst I’ve ever had it was 1 wipe to Angra Mainyu, followed by success, and 1 wipe to Cloud of Darkness followed by clear.

Orbonne is a bit trickier, had abandons a few times, but majority of the time we complete.

Its rare to see any wipes in World of Dankness though usually its a bad sign if theres a wipe on "Anger Management". Occasionally on Mhach too if theres wipes on Derpguise! Orbonne on the other hand you'll expect wipes and quittings because it takes much longer for minimal benefit. Also have to remember lower roulettes will be more common as the lower you go the more have it unlocked as opposed to higher level ones.
