Thread: The potential problem with low level Roulettes in 6.0

I think it just feels reeally slow because the skills are spead so widely that that until level 60...you just have so few buttons to push! Of course people should not compare ff14 compat to BDO...they are fundamentally different and I am personally quite happy that ff14 does not have an action combat system

Even though an interesting idea it could be difficult to balance. Unfortunatly I never played Everquest so I have not really witnessed a system like that

I would love new paths but i fear it would be too much work. BUT more dungeon achievements in general could add some fun! Like maybe little hidden collectables or riddles. Sometimes they hide little lore, snippets...maybe they could create little riddles with that Just a fun little idea...or some basic stuff like..kill Boss XY without getting hit by a certain mechanic. Little stuff.

Ah, I should clarify that I don't ask for adding more skills! Just a change in distribution
