So, this may be an unpopular opinion, so I am totally understanding if people are against this. However, I really feel that these new raids and trials should NOT be added into the roulette immediately after you complete them.
While I understand from the perspective of making sure parties can be quickly filled and keep the queue moving, it can really throw a wrench into your dailies and honestly, I don't think the tomes awarded make up for the frustration.
Since completing Ruby Weapon and Eden 5-8, I consistently get 2nd Phase Ruby and E8 in my roulettes, and usually parties that have wiped multiple times, and are already salty beyond belief.
For me personally, trial roulette should not turn into an all-day affair, especially for the few tomes I am getting for it. This weekend I got Ruby for trial roulette and wound up in a party that kept dying during the 2nd Phase DPS check and after 30 minutes I was the only one left, then when the party refilled they wiped a few more times and my gear went to 0% and I had to be the one to leave after all that time wasted.
While of course, if you get these new trials and raids in roulette you have the option to just leave, but then I deal with the penalty and I am almost guaranteed to get them again when I re-queue.
I just feel giving people time to learn and understand them before throwing them into roulette where it is like SURPRISE and you're forced to contend with it.
Anyway just my two cents. I mean at this point I could just skip both of these dailies, but I hate to lose out on my tomes.
Also, I am not thinking it should be a major delay, like add them into the 5.21 patch 2-3 weeks later. I would also like to add that it has become regular routine since the new content dropped that when Ruby or the new Edens pop in the roulette, half the party just automatically leaves anyway. I can understand why, especially for the Edens. If I have already got my one piece per raid already, doing them again is really just pointless.
