Solution to long dps queue times

[Archona]

PLD is one of the most played classes...there are people playing as tank, they just don't want to queue in duty finder. A geared and knowledged tank doesn't need to queue dungeons anymore aside from myth capping (4 AKs a week) and maybe making gil, and as far as those two go, you can either join in-progress runs or make your own premade and finish the runs quicker. That leaves the small group of ungeared and/or unskilled players who have just reached level cap and are still like learning the basics and finer points of game mechanics, and they're the ones queuing in Duty Finder. The presence of these types of players even further deters the good players from queuing solo.

The reality is, no tank really feels like constantly carrying the masses of scrubby DPS and reteaching fights over and over again.

The solution is to make your own premades in Mor Dhona shout chat, linkshells, or free company. You can also level a tank class so you can myth cap easier, or simply pay a geared tank 5-10k to queue with you instead of expecting random strangers to just be your best friend forever.
