    when will this lazy devs fix the alliance roulette?

    even after the """fix""" they did its still only tower raids.
    just move them to MSQ roulette and let people that want to do alliance RAIDS more that 3 extremely badly made ones.

    They applied the fix that everyone said would fix it.

    Some people feel they get the other raids more now. Some like yourself feel they don't. So what more is there to say? If you don't want to do alliance raids then don't do the alliance roulette.

    Also, you said the first 3 were made badly. They were not. They are really great raids, our item level just outgear them and make the mechanics irrelevant. If you ever did them in ARR or minimum item level, you'd understand how sophisticated and full of mechanics they are and how they can actually wipe, or near-wipe, the whole alliance.

    It's so funny that people just see FFXIV as a chore game to blast through. Any inconvenience is a "waste of time". What does that say about the quality of the game? This is the same mindset as that other MMO--you know, the one that turned into a toxic cesspit. No wonder devs are dumbing everything down. People want the least amount of content possible so they can log off and resume their other games.

    And that’s how we end up with regular dungeons that are just a single tunnel with 2-3 sets of adds that are all pretty much the same in between bosses, normal raids that have lost their environments and that are just a single square or circle arena with a boss in the middle that nothing really differentiates from trials except that they have a savage mode instead of an extreme one.

    For raids, it wasn't really the community causing arenas to be a square or a circle. It was a design decision because it allows mechanics to be spread evenly and not have terrain issues like Twintania. It also allows them to be spread evenly. A similar issue was recently addressed in frontline PvP where some teams had an advantage based on the terrain so it was made into more of a triangle.

    But I think they can do it the way they did it in P7 or P10.

    I just would like it to make sense why it's a circle or square. For example, having rubble around it that isn't a square, but the invisible wall just being a square, or being a town center or a temple.

    I'll correct that for you: people want the least amount of content possible so they can afk in Limsa or take screenshots for their 5 TB image folder while also looking for people with Mare. If a Lala with heterochromia and Lolita fashion didn't give you that away Idk what else will do.

    And this is coming from a Miqo.

    next to the rest of the raids in the relevant patches/expansions they are really badly made.
    as for the fix its clearly did not fix shit. they need to move this 3 raids to a different roulette.

    The fix was not to prevent CT. It was to prevent it being selected when it was not the highest level raid their job could access due to unequipping gear.

    So why are you doing an alliance raid roulette if you don't want to do alliance raids? I personally avoided it since the roulette started existing except when someone wanted me to do it with them for the very reason that I don't want to be caught up in really long alliance raids, nor really boring ones that are no longer fun due to item level.

    If they synced them all to Minimum Item level it would be a lot better, but I don't know if it would make me do it much because again they can be quite long regardless.
