===Additional Information===
===Upcoming changes===
Owing its lack of an [[Item Level|ilvl]] sync, the [[Crystal Tower]] [[alliance raids]] (with the third at a lesser extent) have become tediously easy duties that are often completed with little difficulty, to the point where mechanics on several bosses are ignored or outright skipped. As a result the guides includes mechanics that players will normally not experience unless on Minimum [[Item Level|ilvl]] mode. Owing to this, players have developed a technique to deliberately lower their ilvl in the Alliance Roulette, so that it would select a Crystal Tower raid by default. As a result the developers decided to implement [[Item Level|ilvl]] restrictions for the {{questlink|dutyroulette|Duty Roulette: Alliance Raids}} in [[Patch 6.5]], as to increase it's diversity.

Main article: Duties
Duty Roulette in the Duty Finder

Duty Roulette is a feature for the Duty Finder first introduced in the patch 2.1. Duty Roulette allows the player to participate in randomized duties. Since patch 2.1, various additional roulette modes have been added or changed to reflect the changing state of the game.

Duty Roulette is divided into several categories: Expert, Level 90 Dungeons, Level 50/60/70/80, Leveling, Trials, Main Scenario, Guildhests, Normal Raids, Alliance Raids, Mentor, and Frontline.

Players must use the default Duty Finder settings to queue for a Duty Roulette, with the exception of "Join Party in Progress" and "Limited Leveling Roulette", which are allowed to be enabled. If role requirements are met, Trials, Normal Raids and Alliance Raids roulettes allow one to eight players to queue as a group, and all other roulettes allow one to four players to queue as a group. Players must queue alone for Mentor roulette.

Rewards

The Duty Roulette offers a daily reward that give the players a combination of experience, Grand Company Seals, Cracked Anthoclusters, Cracked Dendroclusters, and Gil, depending on the type of duty, your job depending on what is currently needed, and the level of job when entering the queue. The type of Allagan Tomestones available for each roulette changes with even-numbered major patches (.0 .2 and .4).

Duty Roulette: Expert

Duty complete check mark (added in patch 3.5)

Duty Roulette: Expert places the player into one of the newest light party dungeons that are at the current level cap. Dungeons are added and removed to this roulette as the game is updated; only dungeons released in the current patch and last major patch are in this roulette. There will always be at least two dungeons in total. This roulette will only become available after unlocking and completing all of the dungeons in the roulette. You can verify which duties have been completed with a green check mark at the top right of the duty image (see screenshot).

Players must also have an average item level of 605 or greater to register.

Duty Roulette: Expert currently consists of the following dungeons:

Duty Roulette: Level 90 Dungeons

Duty Roulette: Level 90 Dungeons will put the player into one of the dungeons at level 90 that have been rotated out of the Expert Roulette.

Players must also have an average item level of 575 or greater to register.

Duty Roulette: Level 90 Dungeons currently consists of the following dungeons:

Duty Roulette: Level 50/60/70/80

Duty Roulette: Level 50/60/70/80 will put the player into a random level 50, level 60, level 70 , or level 80 light party dungeon. As of patch 3.1, experience is now also awarded on the defeat of bosses and for completion of the duty if the player is not at level cap, and with patch 4.0, access to this Duty Roulette requires unlocking a minimum of 2 of the included dungeons.

Players must also have an average item level of 45 or greater to register.

The following dungeons make up the Level 50/60/70/80 Duty Roulette:

Level 50 Dungeons

Level 80 Dungeons

Duty Roulette: Leveling

The Duty Roulette: Leveling will put the player into a random light party dungeon or light party trial that the player has unlocked which are not included in Duty Roulette: Level 50/60/70/80. Level 16 is the minimum level to use Duty Roulette: Leveling.

To unlock Duty Roulette: Leveling players must have completed both Sastasha and The Tam-Tara Deepcroft dungeons in the A Realm Reborn Main Scenario.

The daily reward for Duty Roulette depends on your character's level at the time of signing up. Players not at level cap will receive experience points along with Company Seals and Gil. These players will also receive additional experience based on the difference between their actual level and the level of the dungeon or trial completed, with a further amount given based on the character's actual level.

Players who are at the level cap will receive a daily amount of Allagan Tomestones. For those whose level cap is 60 (i.e. free trial or Starter Edition players), Allagan Tomestone of Poetics are awarded.
As of patch 6.0, the following dungeons and trials make up this roulette:

Dungeons

Trials

Duty Roulette: Trials

Duty Roulette: Trials will put the player into a random trial that they have unlocked. It is unlocked on completion of two or more trials in the roulette.

Duty Roulette: Main Scenario

As of patch 6.1, the following duties make up this roulette:

Duty Roulette: Normal Raids

Added in patch 4.3, an 8-man normal-mode raid will be selected at random from among those you have unlocked.
This notably does NOT include The Coils of Bahamut

Duty Roulette: Alliance Raids

Duty Roulette: Alliance Raids places the player into one of the 24-player alliance raids. It is available once at least two such raids have been unlocked.

Upcoming changes

Due to its lack of an ilvl sync, the Crystal Tower alliance raids (the third to a lesser extent) have become tediously easy duties that are often completed with little difficulty, to the point where mechanics on several bosses are ignored or skipped. As a result the guides includes mechanics that players will normally not experience unless on Minimum ilvl mode. Because of this, players often deliberately lower their ilvl in the Alliance Roulette, so that a Crystal Tower raids would be the most commonly selected duty. As a result, ilvl restrictions for the Duty Roulette Duty Roulette: Alliance Raids will be introduced in Patch 6.5 to increase its diversity.

Duty Roulette: Mentor

See also: Mentor System

Introduced in patch 3.2, Mentor Roulette allows mentors to join duties that are struggling to find members. This roulette does not necessarily prioritize matching with players who are new to a duty. Rather, it prioritizes queues that have been waiting the longest for a match. Players can earn exclusive achievements from clearing duties using this roulette.

As of Patch 6.3, players using this Roulette must be level 90 and have at least an average item level of 615. Similar to Duty Roulette: Expert, the required level and item level increase with the release of new content. Players also have to be qualified as Battle Mentors. Unlike other roulettes, Duty Roulette: Mentor only allows solo queuing. Players who queue into a duty through Duty Roulette: Mentor will have the Battle Mentor icon Battle mentor status icon1.png displayed next to their name even if they previously had it disabled.

The following content must have been cleared:

This is essentially everything except (Extreme)s from the current expansion, (Savage)s, (Ultimate)s, and The Coils of Bahamut. In other words, everything that is listed in all the previous roulettes may appear, plus all (Extreme) trials from previous expansions.

Dungeons

Guildhests

Trials

Raids

Daily Challenge: Frontline

Daily Challenge: Frontline places the player into one of the Frontline PvP maps. As there is only one Frontline map available each day, it is not truly a roulette, but grants daily rewards in a similar fashion. Players must be equipped with a Soul Crystal to enter this challenge.

Possible duties in this challenge:
