GuardianX, that's what the commendation vote is for. People that do that are only going to lose those votes by being an idiotic ass. I haven't seen that problem yet as a healer.

My main is a whm but I recently started to level a tank. I have all DL gear but only a level 55 GC, weapon. I purposely use duty finder low level to learn how to tank in a group. Rushing things doesnt help people like me learn a job. We all know fates don't teach anyone anything about their jobs. I understand what your saying about the commendation votes but it still doesn't solve the problem of how are people suppose to learn their jobs if others are in a hurry. Learning how to dps and heal is easy but learning how to tank is hard with lots of pressure. I don't feel it would be fair for me to learning tanking in a level 50 dungeon. I understand why there is a high demand for tank's and why many won't do it.
Try running AK with two bards. We couldn't even get passed the first boss.
I understand the low level dungeons and trials, I have no problem with those and helping new players.
I think the high level dungeon should be a bit more restrictive, group make up, and gear.
BTW, the two bards were in full Darklight and could not get it done on the first boss of AK. Could have been the tank too, but after a few wipes I had enough.
Desythe, I've ran AK with 2 bards before a couple times, did it fine without a problem for the whole run. 2 bards in full DL must have been doing terrible then as there's no reason why they couldn't get the first boss down. Duty Roulette is there for a reason for solo queues, and that's to help the low level players get through the story dungeons which they would wait for at least an hour or 2 before getting in before 2.1 came out. The bonus is there to make it enticing so that the high level people would do them to help out other people. If you want full group, then queue directly into the ones you want and miss out on the bonus. Can't have it both ways. The bonus for going in as a group is that you get to be with friends and enjoy your time, while roulette is bonus stuff to compensate for your time for redoing the low level stuff that most people don't need to do. Nobody is forcing you to use roulette if you don't want to end up in a random group :) So please don't use the word force lol. Nobody is pointing a gun at you and ordering you to do it. You have a choice. By the way, with the high level Roulette, you only need to do that like 5 times a week with CT and Coil and Primals and you get your cap easily. Or you can grind out myth the long way by doing it with a full group. Take your pick.
I love how DR is currently working, please do not fix it! I get to meet a lot of people I normally would not have the chance to meet and adventure with! IMO (opinions of others may vary), it is the greatest thing to happen to Duty Finder up to date. Party finder is nice and all, and I'm glad it was implemented, but DR really makes DF fun for me. Its no longer the boring spam of Garuda HM with the same people for 2 hours...
This is embarrassing to admit; I am having a lot of difficulty seeing the issue here.
Is it that you want the rewards of roulette with your friends? That you want a random queue for groups? Both? I am baffled.
1 or more of those Bards must have been a bad then. Did you see 2 Venomous Bites and 2 Windbites up on the boss? Did they keep multiple buffs coming up onto themselves at several times during the fight? If the answer is no to either of those, then you know you have a bad Bard. We don't have many actual attacks to cycle through, so those DoTs need to be kept up at all times to keep DPS going, along with us reapplying our attack buffs whenever possible just so we can keep up the DPS on par with other classes (and even then we fall short).

Q: Will you be able to use the Duty Roulette when forming a party with 2 or 3 members?
A: We’ll be improving the Duty Finder extensively for 2.1, but I’m afraid the ability to participate in parties will take until 2.2.
Honestly I wish they'd leave it solo queue, someone who has 2 or 3 people can easily make parties on server and be golden.
It's new and they can't do it, cue your typical MMO hyperbolic screeching.
