When FFXIV was released, it seemed to me like there was a real shortage of Healers. I was happy to already be lvl.50 WHM. Queues were instanteneous! Now there's plenty of healers and a real shortage of tanks.

I have since taken up the sword & shield and even the 2-handed axe.
Queues... Instantaneous... LOVIN' IT.

I don'T understand why there aren'T more tanks, it'S a really fun class, paladin or warrior. Not to mention you are usually greeted as great champion/hero/celebrity* when you join. It's a great class if you enjoy leadership roles. And maybe this is why there aren'T many tanks considering there can be alot of pressure as a new tank.

-You gotta memorize the map
-Prioritize/Mark the right mobs (When applicable)
-Explain Sub and Main Boss tactics
-Be generally gallant exercising patience


I rarelly have any trouble having talented DPS or Healer**


I don'T know if this is factual or not but, whenever I use the duty*** finder, I always tick "Join Instance in progress" and I click all four language options. I think it does help giving you more chances to join an instance.

I wish there was a way help people of my server only if I choose with the DF. It would help make lasting relationship or create bitter rivalries... Either would do.
