Instead of Leveling roulette, the current relic should've used Trial roulette instead to incentivize participation. All Leveling dungeons have duty support now I believe(?), so there wasn't as much a need to re-incentivize it. And Trial Roulette rewards are already pathetic in comparison to the other roulettes, especially as they add ilvl sync to trials, making them take longer than say Normal Raid.
There is nothing for the trusts to "understand". The fights are scripted and when 7 out of 8 characters are AI controlled programming their reactions shouldn't be any harder than treating them as part of the mechanics themselves. They only have to code the trusts' choreography for it.
At worst they would have to include conditionals based on what role the player has.
