Yeah I'm just running ex dr if I'm not leveling. I only run 5/6/7/8 if I'm desperate for uncapped tomestones which is basically only right after an expansion drops. Honestly it should give 90 capped tomestones just like exdr, not like they are any other level of difficulty.

I think they're referring to the Level 80 Roulette, which will come back as the Level 90 Dungeon Roulette once we get more 90 dungeons.

I forget that even exists because the rewards are crap. It really doesn't make sense in light of how they've changed how they do dungeons. It worked in ARR because every patch was 3 new ones, so the number was over whelming. Now by the end of an expansion we might have what...8 dungeons at cap total?

I'm aware of the other max level roulette that exists once dungeons start to rotate out of EXDR, I would just prefer if they were all under EXDR instead of split into two roulettes, especially when EXDR is the one with the better rewards for running it.

With dps queues I just run the one with the most rewards cause I'm sitting on my rear end for 20 minutes.

I'd like it if the 90 MSQ dungeon would appear in EX for a while because I've run it literally two times. EXDR keeps giving me Stigma like, every time.

Yeah, this. Generally the only reason I run any roulettes is for the capped tomestones, so getting a bit more dungeon variety instead of the (eventually) two expert dungeons would be grand.

Regy Rusty posted:Right, people are complaining about there not being enough variety in the max level roulette, but that's why there's two of them. There is no reason to do the other roulette because of weekly caps. You only ever need the expert one. So if you're only running one dungeon every day it might as well come from a pool of 8 rather than 2.

I wouldn't want exdr to contain every 90 dungeon even if there will only be 8, because I want to get the newest ones for the glamours. Plus, if I'm running exdr over the course of the expansion I'll end up seeing the early ones way more total. I'd rather they just make the level 90 roulette (and also the 50/60/70/80 one) give better tomestones.

I ran nothing but the 90 msq dungeon for literally two weeks after I cleared story, not even picking up the other two dungeons, for the minion. I would be very happy never to see it again. also the strobing lightning effect in the middle part was very hard on my eyes

What's the prevailing strat for the color jails in P1S? It better not be tank sac. Doing it right is very easy. You do personal clocks for all of them except in one variation where a tank and dps swap while everyone else does clocks.

The third alternate strat of everyone rotating clockwise looks nice on a diagram at least.

RME posted:Some of those strats and arguments really seem to belie the fact that there’s only two patterns ever I’m pretty sure you can literally just do clockspots every time provided your party is paying attention to where they need to move for the second burst and are willing to take personal responsibility for mechanics. It’s a mechanic that each person has to react to anyway, just tell people the rules and it gets done. I’ve been doing the thing on and off the last few days and the strats that involve like, swapping positions feel entirely unnecessary.

One requires a swap somewhere to keep it happy, the other does not. Whichever one you get first you'll get the second one later.

Sounds like that's the tank parse sacrifice strat. P1S dps check is really forgiving at least so it won't really matter.

I experimented around with crafting rotations some more and came out with a macro set for extreme budget melds that gets HQ on 70** crafts very reliably. You pretty much just need a single HQ mat to guarantee it the majority of the time (roughly 950-1000 base quality), though you can again go for two HQ mats if you really want to guarantee it. Stats are 3224 Craftsmanship, 3272 Control, 673 CP.quote:[Macro 1]

It feels like its worth it with the daily bonus but not worth it without. Although, it does have the upside of having no duds like how leveling can put you in Ifrit/Titan/Garuda fights that give next to no xp.

But 5678 with daily is worse for xp then just running your highest available dungeon. But it's probably worth running if you want uncapped tomes. I'm also using it as an excuse for a daily umbrite and progress towards the tanking achievements.

One additional motivation for 50/60/70/80 Roulette is if it potentially ticks a box in Wondrous Tails. It's not as direct as running a specific dungeon (especially unsynced) but it's potentially a nice bonus if you also want the Tomestones

So what y'all are saying is once I get my Bard to level 50, it's faster to just run my highest available dungeon repeatedly than it is to do the leveling roulette once a day?
