    the current raid make up is just fine imo, far better then CT

    Wait times are present for every role and unless they can eliminate wait times for everyone, then its fair as is.

    What needs to happen is a penalty for multi-withdrawing, that can easily and frequently does double wait times.
    Equally i see dps pull out before timer..and healers and yes tanks just as often. Place a limit of 1 withdraw/hr...any more then that and you receive a 1 hr debuff so you cant sign up again until 1 hr has passed. It would affect legit reasons to withdraw but finally deal with those that more often then not,...abuse to find an in progress run.

    Weeding out the df withdraw abusers should have been implemented long ago, its a core underlying problem that affects all roles queue times. At the very least they should try to fix and revert back if no improvement noted.

    Its not a total cure for the issues but there needs to be an attempt made by SE imo.
    just my 2 cents

    The most likely reason why people withdraw is that they've unknowingly selected more then one instance to enter when queuing and the wrong one pops up. And preventing players from using the duty finder is going to make wait times worse, not better.

    This could easily be fixed by having the penalty take place if someone withdraws more than once in a 30mins period when the instance pops, not when its still searching for players.

    This way people withdrawing when they notice its not a run in progress get punished and those who withdraw after queuing wrong instances or because the instance isnt popping, dont.

    After that if you queue more than once for the wrong instance then the penalty will teach you to pay more attention to what you're doing.
