    Something wrong with MSQ Roullette

    The problem is simple: The game keeps giving "The Praetorium" as the MSQ roulette. Six times in a row. SIX TIMES IN A ROW! It refuses to give anything else but Praetorium. That can't be a coincidence, can it? 6 days in a row it's given Praetorium. Is there something wrong with the RNG? If it gives Praetorium one more time, I'm going to bail out of the duty, then go back in, just to see for certain if it's stuck on Praetorium. If it gives it again after that, I'm never doing MSQ Roulette again, and I'll just give up on the extra EXP and gil and tomestones. ;-;

    There's only 3 that it can choose from: Meridanium, Praetorium, and Decumana. You will only really see praetorium and Decumana when someone has intentionally queued for them (aka is at that part of the MSQ).

    That's just the nature of randomness. Sometimes you hit a bad luck streak. I keep getting Ultima Weapon.

    Also Prae has the highest poetic output out of all these, so if someone's running it for poetics, that might be the reason if they don't have access to or don't know about The Aetherochemical Research Facility. I know as a sprout when I had no means of gaining poetics I queued for prae and watched smth on the side (alternatively passed out during Nero's speech).

    But yeah if you want tomes and don't want to suffer much research facility might be better, if you want that juicy msq roul exp, you just take whatever it gives I guess. You'll only get Castrum more if there's a moogle tomestone event going. This is my observation anyway...

    The default behavior of a Roulette doesn't involve any RNG; the system simply matches you with other players who queued for content so that you complete their party. So if you're getting put in Praetorium, it is probably because players are manually queuing for Praetorium.

    There are only 2 edge cases where roulettes use RNG:
    - you queued for a roulette with a full party
    - everyone in the pool signed up for roulettes and nobody manually queued for specific content

    I’m at 25 days in a row of not getting Alexandria in the expert roulette so it isn’t unexpected

    It’s just luck of the draw

    As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.

    I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess
