Thread: Patch 7.0 Notes

The requirements to register for Duty Roulette: Alliance Raids have been changed.

Players must meet the highest item level requirements among the alliance raids they can enter at their current class or job level at the time of registration.

I think this means they are finally taking into account which raids people can enter based on their MSQ and raid quest progress, which is great for people who are still going through the story. Veterans with everything unlocked will still be unable to item level cheese.

Yes! I'm very curious if this will fix the issue where someone can outlevel the MSQ and get locked out of alliance raid roulette because of alliance raid ilevel requirements for a raid they can't even unlock yet.

I know I ran into this issue as I got more and more jobs to 90 while still doing Heavensward, and I was pretty much forced to buy every single complete set of Diadochos gear across all jobs lest I got stuck not being able to use Alliance Raid roulette until I reached Endwalker and could earn/trade for gear there.

Of course, they also decided to put Dynamis on lockdown (so no data center traveling for a couple of months) so I probably won't get to do Alliance Raid roulette (or much of any other kind) anyway, lol.

Yep it's pretty rough for Dynamis players. My alt is 90 and almost to Endwalker so she'll be free soon but it does kind of suck because since she's 90 I can actually gain tomes toward her future gear as I go along from that roulette. Well, if I could run it, lol. It's an alt I raised apart from my main so she's not swimming in gil so I've held off trying to buy anything and will just make it for myself when I get there.

looks like they've officially dropped "tribe" quests,

can't say I like "Allied Society" but they really weren't even tribes anymore

Do they have any curly hair option for males (hyur)? I didn't try the benchmark so I'm not sure what all they have changed but currently they only have one curly hair option, and it is a curly hair mohawk (literally never seen a curly hair mohawk lol).

I am devastated at "High Level Roulette."

I was wanting to be playing, 10 years from now, and doing 50/60/70/80/90/100/110/120/130 Roulette with my kids, and that dream has been snatched away.
