So me, my GF, my brother and a friend are playing this game at the same rate and we would like to enjoy instaces with a group consisting of the 4 of us. I play a marauder, my gf plays an arcanist, my bro plays a gladiator and my friend play another gladiator.
Currently whenever we try to access an instant via duty finder it says that we do not meet the requirements even though we are all in the same quest for the instance. So my take on it is that the game automatically assisngs you a role based on your class and in the setup we have the game sees 3 tanks and 1 dps. I try to enter the instance through the entrance but it just pops the duty finder.
Is there a way to either choose the role you want to fill in the duty finder or at least let us enter without having to go through the duty finder?

Wow, the game is really helping you out here - those instances would take FOREVER with three tanks and an ACN!

08-31-2013, 02:28 AMCelekairiWhile I agree with that, this is not the OPs point. We should have the choice to do instances with wathever combination of classes we desire. Also, wouldnt mind getting this question answered as well:Quote:

dont use the duty finder, if you have the full party, walk to the dungeon entrancen and go in, doing it like this you can go in with all healers if you want.
duty finder is for when you dont have a party set up. -

08-31-2013, 02:40 AMSaccharinMy guess is your a relatively low level considering your unlikely to be able to manage with that combo later on. Do arcanists even heal. Your Glads will take aggro from eachother it'll be chaos. Do bosses have enrage timers like the Trial primals? Like it or not but Glads are tanks not damage dealers.Quote:

Well the best solution to this that I can think of is have your friends (or you to another) power level up a Conjurer and whatever other DPS class (there are many) the the level of everyone else. Alternatively you can all just change classes over to DPS, DPS, GLD/MRD, CON and start from level 1-desired level (this way everyone is leveling at the same pace). This way you can all just switch out the rolls that you want.
I play with two friends and between the three of us we all have a tanking class, healing class, and a DPS class. We just switch to the composition that we want and find the remaining jabrone to fill the void. -

i think your level is to low... or one of the members in the party is below level

That's Kinda not Smart to do an instance with 3 tanks, who can't really DPS that well. The reason this is happening to you cuz a lot of fight are designed for 1 tank a heal and two DPS. You guys are in for a lot of heart ache trying to roll like that cuz some bosses are on timers and rape if you don't DPS down certain things fast. Plus tanks are rare by rolling an instance with 3 tanks you denied like 6 people that are queued a chance to do the instance with your friends as tanks. You really don't meet the requirement cuz you don't have a real healer like white mage or conj a anch aint going to cut it. Tanks get into dungeon when qued like instantly cuz they are so rare. Srun the dungeons separately then talk about it after its over and share the experiences :P

? If you have a full 4, you can run dungeons with whatever you want. I've ran dungeons with 2 tanks, 2 healers and 3 healers all in different dungeons.

IIRC, if you manually put together a party of four people and then queue up for the instance via the Duty Finder, it doesn't even check your roles. So you can go in with whatever weird group comp you want.

Its denying them cuz they know that make up of a team isn't going anywhere. So stop it. You guy need to agree with me so they queue separately so I can get a tank for my instances. ^_-

Got this message before, one of your members does not meet the requirement. I know for a fact you can have any combination of classes you want as long as you form your party before you use the duty finder.

maybe one of them isn't attuned to the instance, tell them to quest more

Hmm we did a party last night through just our field company / irl friends, and our healer was our Arcanist even though they can't queue as healer. Suggest to me that some other reason is preventing you from queuing, because if it was based on class requirements we should have been denied.
