What is your longest Duty Finder wait time? (DPS)

I hit a personal record of 120mins wait time on a required dungeon for the main story on my only job high enough to do the dungeon. I eventually gave up and went to sleep. What are your wait times?

Screenshots more than welcome!

I hit about 2 hrs once while leveling nin for low level roulette a few days after Nin came out. But that's not really a shocker.

All wait times count!
If you paid to wait to be able to play the game, it counts.
If you are unable to complete the objectives of the game because of wait times caused by the games design, then it counts even more!
Every hour of life is deducted from your total before you die, I am curious what other people playing DPS are paying these days.

around 160ish minutes or so, can't remember the exact amount. was late night on my server when most ppl are asleep in my time zone. during prime time though around 90-120 min while lvling nin was pretty common.

Was first time entering Battle on the Big Bridge as healer, i don't know how long to wait but when I wait while leveling Carpenter, I grind it from 28 to 38 and finally enter. (Never use PF before)

I know someone that queued up for T1 on DPS and ended up falling asleep. He woke up about 5 hours later with a 300+ minute counter still going. The DF popped for him about a half an hour later. This happened about a week ago.

I must be lucky! XD The longest for me was 45 minutes.

You seem to be angry, shall we sit and talk about what has caused such a post?

I waited another 11 minutes after I took this screenshot before I got in. I'd been waiting for Wanderer's Palace and watched tanks and healers both queue in and give up and leave off and on the whole time.

lol pretty sure thats what this thread is all about... Talking about everyones wait times while we wait!

As a white mage my longest is 25 minutes, but that was because it was for a story thing and it was like 3am. It's usually instant and even when it isn't it's still less than 5 minutes most of the time. You guys should level a class that isn't overpopulated. I don't know how you can stand to wait hours.

i waited four hours on PUG once. My first duty, in fact. I gave up.

If it takes longer than 30 mins, I go do something else.
I leveled WAR specifically so I could get my roulettes and such done faster.

For some reason, in Hyperion, it doesn't take that long. It must be because the primal datacenter is crowded with Legacy servers, which are really populated. I should say 20 min average.

Well I can't compete with you guys but my longest wait is 46 min.

Took a break from my SCH to level BLM, and I gotta say, I've been getting parties within 20 minutes of DF. Not bad at all, but maybe I'm just lucky.

Se seriously should have released Drk 1st zz. The game was totally short on dps players =_=

When ARR first came out wait times were always 100min plus.... My longest was about 3 hours. Can't remember what I was waiting for... Watched a movie...

What I mean here is healer's waiting time in Battle on the Big Bridge is same longer with DPS too. (Yes I tried waiting duty as DPS too for "fun" stuff and it took bit longer than my healer's waiting time.) Have you done Hildebrand's quest?

Yup. Duty Roulette made such a difference to queue times it's ridiculous.

Stone Vigil took me three hours to get into in 2.0. Only to fail it 85 minutes later when we couldn't beat the last boss because the healer would eat the AoEs every single time.

90 minutes is the longest I've waited. Longer than that, and I give up and log off for the night.

Little over 70 mins for Copperbell HM and then the healer DCd. Waited 5 mins for them to come back, then 10-15 mins after kicking to get another. Never pulled the first trash and abandoned the duty.

Thank god I usually assume it will take forever and find something to do in the mean time. Kindle works nice to watch things while waiting :P

This was a while back, but I'm pretty sure this was for AK

Longest i've waited was 7 hour's before. This was for the Lv40 Guildhest Solemn Trinity As a DPS. Luckily i was doing fate's ect for seal's whilst i was waiting for this. capped twice whilst waiting for the duty to pop, i actually gave up and slept after this.

Hence why i re-rolled a healer as a main class. Cant play the game when the que time's are this long :\

90-92 minutes. I'm still waiting for a Dzmael Darkhold party on Chaos Data Center that isn't a 50k EXP / speedrun of the first mobs for mt Book Completion. I keep re-queue'ing every now and then.

Already tried shouting, party finder. No one wants to do it even during normal EU hours.

Roughly 50 minutes as a DPS. I don't just stand around and wait though. I run FATE or continue with the main story line. My only complaint (and not much of one at that) is I can't use my chocobo during those times :(

Had a 4 hour wait not too long ago for an Ifrit ex. Was fun

Must have been around 174 minutes. It was during the Ninja craze.

My longest wait time as a DPS was about 2hrs.
My longest wait time ever was this:

447 minutes. Just a few days ago. Qarn. Average wait time was Less Than 30 minutes.

It kept jumping between tank ready, and healer ready constantly. One second there was a tank, the next, there wasn't. It really was quite hilarious.

An hour and 20 min on BLM, which is why I switched to SCH. Gotta love instant queues.

350mins++ as DRG to Ifrit Extreme.. I gave up before it popped..

Currently sitting on this one...

Someone queue up already!

Though this is not exactly a normal DPS queue, I was queued up for frontlines one night as Dragoon. I waited around for maybe an hour and fell asleep. 9 hours later after I had woken up I decided to go harvesting in this game. About an hour later in the middle of harvesting I suddenly had a queue pop up, it was the frontlines queue from the night before. That was probably the longest queue I ever had actually finish XD, so I'm guessing 11-12 hours.

3h as a SCH ! tu enter.....Ramuh EX

generally as a SCH it takes me between 20 to 40mn rarely I can enter right off, exception Roulette which is mostly instantenous.

Mei

I've only tried leveling a bard as my 1st DPS and had to wait about an hour and twenty mins. D:

Ifrit Extreme - 240 minutes
average wait time was 18 minutes...
