I guess it will slow my Dragoon leveling down quite a bit though?

Your going to be leveling them seperately so yes, any time you spend on your tank or whatever will be time that your not getting exp on your dragoon. This isnt bad though, its nice when you play with friends and need a different job to complete something and you are able to change class real quick to help out.
Personally I play a PLD, BRD and working on my CNJ right now. They are all fun, at least try each job up to lvl 10-15. Even if you dont feel like continuing you will have their starting abilities to use crossclass and help out your main class.

My suggestion is to level a tank and dragoon together.. Essentially this will slow your chance of reaching end game soon but if you are not in a rush then you will be fine.

Alternatively, you can level lancer exclusively until 30 and use crafting/fishing/DOL as something to do while waiting for a queue. Just remember for you to be a dragoon you will also have to lvl Pugilist to at least 15.

I actually plan to level all to level cap in this game, seems interesting with the cross class skills :) Can I have multiple jobs though? Like, is it possible to have all jobs on one character? The way it's worded on sites makes those specialisations seem a bit more exclusive..

Yes one character can level all classes/jobs to 50. There are no need for alts.

Due to work and life commitments my available gaming time is less than that needed for these events.

So you have less than an hour straight to play the game at a time? Seriously?

There are 2 reasons for alts: Different Starting Out City / Main Quests, and Differing Grand Company Quests.

Expect long ques if you play dps. All MMO's share this same problem.

I think these are like match making where they get all the players from all server into that event only, after that they go back.

I could be wrong.

I believe the issues with the length of wait times on the duty finder was explained in Yoshi's most recent post/apology and that along with the server fix's within the week, they're working on the fix for the duty finder as well.
