    Whats goin on?
    It's because you're queuing as a DPS. the line for DPS is a mile long.

    Queue as healer or tank and you'll get a group faster. Simple as that. You're doing yourself and everyone else a favor.

    It can take 30 minutes+ to get into an instance with a pre-made party on some server groups - stop using the "YOU'RE A DPS!" excuse already, that isn't the reason by large.

    Even queuing as a healer it still takes quite awhile at times because again, based on the server grouping, certain ones are just so full or no one is doing it (lower end ones.)

    When was this. I have never had a pre-made party ever wait more than near instant. Even when we go in with 1 tank 1 healer and 1 DD already set it never takes more than 5 minutes.

    To top that off I always go in as a healer, and my wait is usually very short if at all. I have tried tank once or twice (not to good at it and don't plan to do it again due to the fact that noone works with a tank who wants to be better at dungeons, and just harass the hell out of a tank who is not perfect).

    I know a lot of people also don't like healing due to the fact that when a party fails they will jump all over the healer (although that happens rarely if at all in my experience).
