Incentivize More People to Queue for Leveling Dungeons

[Metalwrath]

If they add incentives for group content I think it should be on encouraging players to find others to play with regularly so they don't have to rely on DF filler in the first place, rather than just finding ways to fill the queue with more bodies.

Like bonuses for queuing with FC - playing with friends should be the most rewarding, literally and figuratively.

Your suggestion is to encourage players to queue as a group and slow down queue times for new players as a result.

New players are capable of joining FCs, and I think they should be encouraged to find groups to play with and make friends. I guess I don't see how this wouldn't also benefit them more than the current system unless they refuse to play with others, in which case that's a choice but not the general point of an MMO. Solo options would still exist and are super convenient, but I think the incentive should go to groups.

It's pretty rare that I'm getting a new player bonus when I do leveling roulette so I doubt queuing as a partial group is slowing things down for them overall. What's more likely to be slowing things down is a lack of sufficient tanks or healers to fill roles, or the instance servers being so full the number of groups being formed is throttled (which seems to be happening a lot lately).

The best way to speed up the queue for new players is to group with them before queuing for the dungeon instead of random queuing solo trying to get a match with a new player.
