Put Crystal Tower into MSQ roulette

People would just cheese the next alliance raid.

Honestly, just fix the item level sync so we're not horribly outgearing LOTA and ST and see how many people remember any of the old mechanics. Or how many people remember Glasya Labolas has mechanics at all.

Obligatory "look at how they massacred my boy" here, Glasya was my fave boss in ST and now we never see the bouncy castle part

On topic otherwise, I'd like to not run CT Roulette and actually get something else while I'm leveling alt jobs so I can actually learn rotations past lv50. I'd be down with this so it's not just "will we see Livia, Gaius, or the Ultima Weapon today?" and have a little more in there, or at least make it less annoying to get something other than ST or WoD constantly.

Most often it’s CT or Void Ark.

It's frustrating that I only get ct but putting it into the msq roulette makes zero sense. No, they must find an alternate solution.

I haven't seen a single LotA or ST since I'm back from my break, which was a month ago. I got a lot of Nier lately.
Does it mean we have less sprouts and refugees? Or I am just insanely lucky?

I don't think sticking three 24-man alliance raids into the 4-man MSQ roulette queue will solve the problem as people will just find ways to cheese that. The solution is to rebalance Crystal Tower, and even the Heavensward alliance raids to an extent, so they take as long as Ivalice and newer raids do. Since Endwalker has released, the 50/60 alliance raids are easily twice as fast as the other alliance raids which is why people are abusing the system so much.

By far not the only reason CT raids happen more often. Preventing ilvl cheese will have far less of an impact than many people wish for.

They would just do exactly what they are doing now. Only in this case, they'd get a huge XP buff for doing it, because MSQ roulette gives way more XP than Alliance roulette.

It's not fixing the problem. It's shifting it from one roulette to another.

Like I said. If you can't change gear while in a raid, they have to run the raid naked and likely get vote-kicked as a result. That's a better solution.

You can put low level gear, queue and get back to your real gear before entering.

You can abuse loot/combat to avoid kick in Alliances raids very easily.

The solution would be to actually level synch you. The current version is a joke.
