    Right, you budget your time when you're playing a MMO or any game. You prioritize what's most important for the time you have available.

    There are a few possible solutions for you to use:
    • Stop queuing for duties when you want to be doing quests and watching cutscenes.
    • Stay in the job that you used when you queued for the duty if you're going to be watching cutscenes.
    • Abandon the quest after you get out of the duty and restart it so you can watch the cutscene while you are not queued for another duty.
    • Ignore the duty so the game will automatically withdraw you after 60 seconds. That can happen twice every 24 hours without penalty. If it happens a third time, you'll get hit with the deserter penalty. This shouldn't be happening enough on a daily for you to reach the point of getting hit with the penalty.

    Some players arn't what some would consider "casual" and can put alot more time in than others.

    Everything you suggested is everything wrong with the system and can be fixed with a simple Quality of Life update. What exactly is wrong with updating a feature that does literally nothing bad. Instead of suggesting a "work around" to a faulty system, tell me why "Commence duty as queued role" is a bad idea & how it wouldnt benefit players?

    It's FAR more efficient to be able to queue for duties while doing job quests on the side. Makes ZERO sense how it isnt. THAT would be managing your time better.

    Queuing for DPS then waiting 15min+ DOING NOTHING sounds "real" time efficient...
