Crystal tower raid fights could use a rework

[Avatre]

To an average brand new sprout, the CT series is simply overwhelming. Castrum and Prae are vastly improved for a level 50 player in level 50 gear, same needs to happen for the similar point in the story.

It needs a rework, and removal from the constraints of a full Alliance where you have all those geared level 90 destroying the content before you can even get off a single spell.

Leave that until 500 or so quests in the future when your gear has caught up a bit. But right now, CT isn't that much fun for an on-level player, and it's not like they will see a single mechanic outside of "A: All in the belly / B: Belly time / C: Can we join you in the belly?" which they are likely dead on the floor for anyway.

Just force minimum ilevel in them, and that would solve a lot of the level 90s destroying everything before new players know what is going on.

How do you check if no one forced lota or syrcus through legitimate means?

It's almost impossible unfortunately. Unless you're able to see all their achievements and such for having cleared it.

Which would be solved if the lvl 50 raids have very strict ilvls and some very notorious boss mechanics that you would prefer to avoid (idealy causing several wipes to happen when its a lot of newer players). People would not cheese anymore to reduce the chances of facing those bosses. And while the newer players might struggle a lot here, the echo would eventualy help them enough to get through it (not to mention them slowly understanding the mechanics better and failing less on that).

Idealy the lvl 50 raids should be more difficult than the lvl 60 ones in order to make people not want to cheese (and it doesnt mean they become extremely difficult either, they just have to be 'anoying' enough).

And when its a proper challenge, i wouldnt care if it shows up either. Its a lot better than the dull 20mins of sleeping.

I'm someone who advocates for them treating Alliance Roulette the same as Expert Roulette, where in order to access it you have to have all things contained within not only unlocked, but cleared at least one. Remove the ability to ilevel cheese it, and then it would be a true roulette and not CT roulette.
