    Crystal Tower raids need their own queue.

    At this point, Alliance Raid Roulette is just a Crystal Tower roulette, with other raids in it. I used to enjoy these raids, but I see them almost every queue pop. I don't care what the solution they choose is, I would just like a little more variety.

    I assume that it pops the most, because its required for the msq, while all other raids are optional

    also everyone thats new to the game has to do those quite early

    Maybe putting those in the MSQ roulette would be a good alternative, given it's possible to put in 2 different duty sizes into the same roulette.

    People need it for MSQ, as mentioned.
    Story skippers are only going to have that one unlocked.
    Alts are probably only going to have that one unlocked.
    Anyone on a job under level 60 will only get that one.

    What really needs to happen is the other alliance raids need MSQ requirements too.
    Not only will that make the roulette a little more varied because more requirements to unlock, but we get the added bonus of those characters being able to come back during MSQ for some fun adventure or whatnot instead of solely being regulated to their side story and promptly forgotten.

    Putting Crystal Tower that are 24 men duties together with the current MSQ roulette 4 men duties would make Crystal Tower queue be terrible.
    Like how the 8 men Guildhest almost never pop from queuing because the system fill people into other 4 men Guildhest as soon as there are 4 players with the correct roles

    They could bring back the system they used for Frontlines that was able to switch between 8v8v8 and 24v24v24. It generally waited a little to see if there was enough people trickling in, but if there wasn't, it decided to pop the 8 player mode instead, which happened all the time during the day before evenings in particular.
    The leve one is just outright bad.

    Nah, I don't think the answer to forced inclusion is forced exclusion. The answer is forcing the player-base to unlock the other raids. If players don't want to do the raids, they shouldn't want to do the roulette.

    Would be nice to not get them so often. I had a really nice streak that’s come to the end now of every other one but ARR’s ones. Now I’m stuck in it it seems. I stay as sometimes especially on the chaos sever it will pop and people keep withdrawing not once not twice but up to 5 times I’ve had it. So I stick it out. The only condolences to getting it is it’s quick it’s easy and you can move onto something else. But it would be nice to have something in place that meant you wouldn’t constantly keep getting crystal tower when queuing for the roulette. That being said you end up in the Shadowbringers ones and so many people will leave.

    a change is highly needed.
    as it is now it only drives away people from the roulette... people who will fill nobodys alliance at that point.
