Deep Dungeon Roulette

[FarelTheGecko]

Deep Dungeons are active upon release, but later on, they become forgotten, and new players struggle to find help.

Palace of the Dead is especially bad, since everyone runs stuff from floor 51, with 1-50 being ignored. Many players have to rely on Party Finder to get 4 people together, and together run through 50 floors in one go. This is very annoying for them, as well as any players who would actually help them out.

I feel like there should be something like a Deep Dungeon roulette, or at least Mentor roulette should let Mentors join in.

I realize Save Slots are a thing for Deep Dungeons, and there's required gear levels, but the current system really hurts newer players, and I feel like this could be worked around.

Wait... So when you que up what are the roulette options you could be put into?
Just... randomly match you with a party from one of the two deep dungeons?

Full runs can take hours and hours. Would there be a way for a party that had previously been matched to meet back up to do the next leg of their run?

Would you do something to try and incentivize people to do something other than just run early floors for exp and then disband?

And why do you think a roulette would be more successful than just adding more rewards to the deep dungeons themselves?

I realize my idea isn't top-notch.

We are not talking about parties trying to reach PotD 200 or HoH 100. I naturally understand that this would be ridiculous. I'm talking about PotD 1-100 and HoH 1-20. Both are the storylines for said dungeons.

You can que up for these runs and get matches with random people for every 10 floors. It's not about going through everything in one go. You could beat 10 floors each day, and eventually be done. The problem is that as of now, the only people who you'd be matches with, would be those who run the same deep dungeon, and there's very little of those.

Adding new mounts/minions would only last till people would get it. This would make the devs have to come up with new stuff every patch, when in reality, a regular roulette inclusion would do the job.

Once again: I don't see this as an easy solution, but I do feel sorry for all these casual players who just want to see some of the story, but are forced to get lucky and get a 4 man team who'll stick around for several hours.

Today I spend a few hours escorting 3 sprouts through PotD to floor 50, just because they all need it to unlock Heaven On High. It feels pretty bad they had to do that.

Ohhh... I see.

But if you're with a different group every set of floors... how does the game decide what the groups pomanders look like?

if you queue with randos pomanders are lost. if you get matched parties for every set of floors its honestly not a big deal; especially when thats how most players did it when potd came out
