AUS DC queues

If there ever was an argument for extending squad or Trust to the StB era, it's this:

These are the queue times I used to experience when doing the MSQ on a tank on other data centers.

Well, what time is it there? Late night?

It's like, 2am according to Google... That's why queues suck lol...

If you switch to a tank or healer role, does it happen too?

:D



Cheers

The queue happened at 22:00 AUS time, and I was a Summoner.

Honestly, it's only slightly longer than what i'm used to on Primal DC.

Keep in mind you are also queueing for a specific dungeon which always increases queue times as well.

I see this time to time on Excalibur, which is a Legacy server, while queueing as a DPS. It's nothing new. This is where being in an active FC comes in handy.

This is not really specific, as there is no one 'Australian time', as Australia actually has 3 main time zones (Australian Eastern Standard Time, GMT+11 hours for Sydney, Canberra, Brisbane, Melbourne and Hobart, Central Australian Standard Time; GMT+10 and a half hours for Adelaide, Darwin and Alice Springs, and Australian Western Standard Time; GMT+8 hours for Perth, not including the states that currently have Daylight Saving active which confuses things even more. Thus time zones can vary up to three and a half to four hours between east and west.

Also, there is only the one data centre for Oceania at the moment, where other regions have multiple data centres, thus they can draw in more players for duty finder than what the AU data centre can.

Incidentally your character information under your avatar says you're nearly level 90. If you just need it for your main scenario just run it solo unsynced, as a level 90 should be able to steamroll it pretty much, even as ACN/SMN/SCH, given it's level 70 content. Or find another level 90 person to run you through it, again unsynced (the Party Finder, not Duty Finder, is ideal for that).

Number of data centers doesn't matter, as df isn't cross DC, only servers within a DC. But AUS only has what 5 world's? So that's part of it.

Trust needs to come back through Stormblood, or Squads need to be pushed to the end of it (might be better).

I've been trying to run 10 to 15 dungeons a day there as healer and tank there trying to help keep queues in check (and earn materia X), as a lot of friends have. Hopefully you can get the Burn done soon!

You can also try a partyfinder ad and see if that helps, I am hitting a lot of those on classes in need.

A large bulk of players are just reaching Ishgard too I notice so those will be coming up soon.
