    It's interesting that you had fun with it. Is it because you've not played this job much and you're engaged in trying to learn it? Because any time I bring a DPS job to a roulette I'm bored out of my mind. It's the exact same thing every run. Almost down to the GCD.

    Healer roles, at the very least, have some variability in the amount of damage you must heal, depending on your party.
    I've done countless level 50 alliance raid roulettes as MCH, well after I had learned its rotation, and after I had gotten it to Max level. While it wasn't the most fun I've ever had, it was more fun than SCH at level 80. Just something as simple as having timers on things like drill, bio blaster, and hotshot/air anchor, a proc when your gauge hits a certain percentage, and trying to get stuff off in wildfire, while all simple things, are enough to keep me engaged, at least for now. You're right, maybe halfway through the expac, and have done every roulette 200+ times, even that will get tiring, but I at least have fun for awhile even doing the simpler things. On SCH I am bored to tears as soon as my first run through. Every dungeon in shadowbringers, when they were all new and sparkly, was boring me because I had nothing to do, the only place I enjoy it at all anymore is Savage, and even that is only because of the way the fights are designed and not scholar itself. I bet if I went in on a class like MCH or SMN I'd be having way more fun than I am on SCH, because at least those classes have somewhere to go after the fight is learned. Shame I signed up into my static as a healer while healers were still fun, so I'm stuck with this for now.

    Should also be noted I did countless roulettes as SCH back in SB as well, after I had hit level cap with it and played it countless times. Sure it wasn't as fun towards the end as I was having at the beginning, but I still found even level 60 dungeons at the very least somewhat engaging, because there was always something to do other than spam 1 button.
