There is nothing wrong with the queue times

Nothing at all!

Nothing at all!

Nothing at all!

But seriously, one of us clearly the liar here, but who?!

On the bright side, I love how your UI is set up Flo :)

All see is instant tank Q times, and a bunch of bads refusing to offspec/reroll tank to get things done.

Nothing to see here.

I can't help it, I'm suffering with a toaster for this game so I have to play on minimum res.

That sort of vision; explains why people can get so judgmental about others on this forum.

Can't even make a joke about the differing ETAs...

Yeah it was a total pain when I was levelling THM for Swiftcast. If the it wasn't for Cocobusi's story I almost gave up on it.

Even now I never play my SMN side of the ACN because I'm so scarred from trying to get into something as a dps.

It's bizarre, I almost never have bad luck with que times and only play DPS really. It's not usually instant or anything, but if I try to fill the time with gathering or daily quests there's never enough time to do very much... Maybe the Primal data center is just different...?

Well, you are queuing for 8 mans... And if your are trying to do Ifrit Ex as your quest log indicates, well.... Those Exs aren't run often.

You're complaining about a 45 min wait time? I remember a time not to long ago where there were no randoms and waiting for Garuda (Easy) or Cape Westwind could easily take 2 and a half hours. This was especially fun for Garuda because you'd get in there and spend 45 min wiping before the whole group gives up and you get some more quality time waiting in the Duty Finder.

The high level tanks have moved on to work on other classes as there is a shortage of tank classes to level in the game. Once more tank classes are released, then queues will get better...

The amount of tank/healer classes in the game are SO outnumbered compared to DPS 2T/2H/6DPS (including nin/nja), if it were 4/4/6 it would be smoother. I personally like Tanking/Healing over DPSing but I play the other classes as I'm trying to slowly lvl my 32 PLD to wait for another tank class before I hit 50 with it like I did my WAR. I have a 50 SCH and a 46 WHM.

Since a week after Hunts were released, my queue times, as tank, have skyrocketed. Where I can wait hours. Before hunts? Did not matter what I queued up for, what time of day or night, it was extremely rare I waited more than 20 minutes for anything.

Yay hunts.

I was working on bard atma books this morning and had a 90 minute queue trying to get into Lost City. I then 90k'd, got back online and pestered a healer friend to help with the queue. We managed to get in to the dungeon after about 10 minutes.

Oh yeah, and then the tank bailed before the first pull.

Looks like part of your gripe is with that average time OP. Need to remember that that IS an average and if what you're queueing for is not a heavily run instance or you're queueing out of prime time for that server then the sample size the game is using for that average could be VERY small making it extremely inaccurate. Also possible a partial was queuing multiple times getting a few DPS queued fast. Every 8 man is 4 DPS. Partial queues up...4 DPS get like <1 min queues and drive down the average wait somewhat artificially.

Ranged and Melee DPS have separate queue time estimates.

Tank for hire, anyone??? :)

You could say that the server database you are on, is void of tanks for what you are trying to run. Put up a PF, might take a while, but it's better than DF.

Melee DPS have faster queue times to ranged DPS. My BF and I are witness to this, his queue time on DRG is 10 min max and my queue time on SMN is over 30 mins >.>.
