    Thought duty wait times had been sorted?

    I think that it very much depends upon what class you are in the queue as and also what you are in the queue for

    Exactly, a storyline feature that works great only for certain classes. even now I am hearing comments that people are not making new characters, so low level areas are becoming a waste land

    The wait times ARE a bit ridiculous its almost always above 40 minutes for me on Diabolos.
    It's not that nobody isn't making new characters, they are just focusing more on their main class as of now until they start a new class.

    If your a DPS.. you'll always face long wait times for any 'duty finder' missions..... its just a facet of being a DPS. There's about a billion of us all fighting for the same spot.

    As a Tank my DF pops instantly. Never have an issue with it. Its all about supply and demand, as the others have said. Tanks are in short supply compared to the amount of DPS classes. Healers are also hardly available. While I don't agree with it, a tank can pick and choose his DF groups. If he doesn't like his group, he can find another fairly easy. A 15 minute penalty is not very long for us, considering the DPS wait times.

    What people should be asking is for SE to try to make tanks more desirable. While I love my class, not everyone shares my love.

    The longest i have had to wait so far is 5 mins as a tank. DPS always have long wait times, its almost better to try and make your own group, or even join a FC and do runs with them.
