DPS Queue Times

[Mikki]

Why not take up crafting or gathering if you haven't already? The quests for them are actually really great imo and I find them relaxing and fun to do. Plus it's fun to challenge myself to make a certain amount of gil each day! Around 4.1 I was challenging myself to make at least 1 mil a day, which was a lot of fun. Also, market board pvp is intense.

You could also hang out in the golden saucer. I love to sit around there and participate in GATES. You can get exclusive emotes, mounts and gear from there. Beast tribes are also fun and you could do hunts as well.

As for queue times, there's not much for it if you don't want to queue up as a tank/healer. Best advice that is always tossed around is to get an FC and ask people to run stuff with you or to get a tank or healer friend to queue up with you for a faster pop. Sadly that's just how it is... But tbh 9 - 20 minutes isn't that bad. But must feel so after those insta-pop tank queues. You must feel like a peasant in the DPS queue line. xD

Exactly, I miss the instant pops as a DRK. I just got tired of playing as a tank...plus the glam for casters is so cool. lol

I have taken up CUL and MIN both are in the high 50's. I may go back into it or maybe try another crafter. I don't go to the Gold Saucer much after grinding for the Gambler's Set. I do like Chocobo Racing though.

I usually alt+tab and use Facebook, YouTube, browse the forums, etc.

I really wouldn't bother queuing for dungeons as DPS. At all. Queue for your dailies, but if you're grinding specific dungeons it's better to use the party finder.
