    The Uznair Challenge - Portal Issues!!

    Greetings!

    I hope the dev team reads these forums, it would be my luck that they dont.

    For the Uznair challenge you have to make it to the last floor of either The Lost Canals of Uznair, The Shifting Altars of Uznair, or The Hidden Canals of Uznair.

    Well there's 1 problem with that. Sure, the level 60 maps are unaffected. But when doing level 70 or 80 maps when you get a portal 80% of the time it's that damned roulette wheel. You hardly ever see the dungeon anymore.

    Will the rate of getting the dungeon instead of the wheel be increased during this event?

    So don't do the 70/80 maps? I see no problem there.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    That would make sense and be to the event's benefit.
    It would also be nice to actually SEE those other dungeons again.

    Shifting altars info Uznair is the name of the roulette duty, so getting to the end of that counts. So no problem.

    Pretty sure you have to do the storm blood maps. I believe the lvl 80 maps are a different dungeon set entirely, which is why the gazelle maps are selling for WAY more right now. https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Treasure_Hunt

    This. Lost and Hidden Canals are the dungeon-like structure; Shifting Altars is the roulette wheel. All three possible outcomes of the Stormblood maps are included in the challenge.

    Probably the frequency of the roulette duty (for both Uznair and its level 80 counterpart) is because it was bumped up when "new" and nobody thought to turn it down again later.
