Stop Gating Behind Older, Less Popular Questlines and Raids

Would be so easy to fix that : lv60 to 69 ? gotta be at least ilvl 230 to use the alliance raid queue, (70 to 79 > ilvl 360, 80 to 89 > ilvl 490) Basically you have to equip the minimum ilvl to do the last raid of your current tier to queue don't remember the exact number it's around those line.

You can partly blame the dev for allowing players receive the same amount of roulette reward regardless whether they get CT raids or Mhach/Ivalice/NieR raids & for allowing such loophole exist for a very looonnngg time.

They really should tone down a bit the reward from CT series & raise the other expansions’ ARs accordingly.

Are we actually sure there are other raids other than crystal tower in the alliance raids roulette? I am starting to believe this is all a.....conspiracy. I have not seen anything by crystal tower for two months now no matter what class. You would think it would prioritize level and go down from there. I would wait 30 minutes as a tank or healer for anything other than crystal tower.

There were times I had a full party for leveling roulette forgot to tick the preferred leveling option and it decided yes all of you level 70 what you need right now is copperbell(this was pre change). I don't mind getting content that has a fresh sprout going through the story, but the fact you can still get Titan, Garuda, Ifrit and super low dungeons that give no xp past a certain point in the first place makes me wish they would fix the roulettes. At that point your just going through with no reward. Maybe I did the math wrong but I didn't even get a quarter of a level because the roulette was a roulette all right. Just copperbell or 4 man trials roulette more like alot of times. Maybe the roulette gods are all troll meme lords.

I get a good mix in alliance roulette, felt like there is a resurgence in nier raids which I assume is because people leveling jobs to max can now be in range for nier raids again because of increased max level. Tower at paradigm's breach was an especially fun experience when I realized the person who quit out at the start and took the 30 minute penalty got to queue up again before I was out of the alliance raid normally.

Overall the roulette is insanely stacked in favor of crystal tower and there is no way to prove that ilvl cheesers are affecting that. It can easily have the opposite effect
for individual players where ilvl cheesers are pushing others towards other alliance raids because they are forcing themselves into all the syrcus and lota raids. It's just for a roulette to give you a raid someone needs to queue for it unless you have a party of 24 rouletteers.

not a conspiracy. i have gotten everything from HW to ShB alliance raids in roulette.

I don't mind Ivalice, Crystal Tower or Mhach, but I dislike Nier. So currently I'm not queueing into MSQ roulette and instead use that time to queue Myths, which I like a lot.

[Anhra]

I think the Ivalice Raids on release days, where the biggest fun ive had in any 24man content so far, and i still enjoy running them even after having farmed all the Glamour for my collection.

The only thing that really annoys me are the People queuing into Raid Roulette naked just to get freaking Crystal Tower which is at this point of the game, just a no-brainer.

[Darthgummibear]

People like the Ivalice raids, you just don't see them as often because a bunch of rejects game the system queuing naked to get crystal tower. They really need to do something about that.

To be fair, there's usually just as many players who are queueing for CT at any given time specifically in order to progress the story. But yeah, those cheesing the item level aren't helping. I can't be bothered to do Alliance raid roulette anymore. Sorry sprouts, but I've seen enough CT for a thousand lifetimes.

Agreed about seeing CT way too much. Which is why I feel they need to massively change how alliance roulette works. Make it more akin to how Expert works, where you have to unlock everything in it to be able to run it, based on character level. That way, as long as you are level 50-59, sure you will only get CT, but once you hit 60, you have to unlock the Mhach raids, same with 70, 80, and now 90. And change the item level requirements to be completely level based. No more queueing naked to get that one series, you will have equal chance to get any of the others.
