    How to fix the duty finder

    First off, I think Item Level should not be forced, it should be the decision of the people queing up. To do that SE should make a better Duty Finder Options Menu with a better filter on it. E.g....

    --Player Filter
    Language-> JEDF (can select multiple)
    Player Type -> Casual, HardCore (can select both)
    Cutscenes -> Enabled, Disabled
    Average Item Level -> 55, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, etc (Can select multiple)
    Number of Tanks -> 1, 2
    Number of Healers -> 1, 2
    Healer Spread -> Check box "Prevents two whm, or two sch, etc"
    Tank Spread -> Check box "Prevents two war, or two pld"
    --Gear Filter
    Need Disabled -> Checkbox, for gearing out alts

    I agree with

    "Player Type -> Casual, HardCore
    Cutscenes -> Enabled, Disabled
    Average Item Level -> 55, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, etc"

    The other stuff seems like it'd be better off just shouting your own party as it would cause a huge enough separation you might never get in a party.

    Who care's about the waiting time, it's the duty finder... It would only be bad waits for the people using it. If you don't want to wait, check all langauges, all item levels, and both cutscene boxes and que as fast as it is now.

    Options don't make life hard, they make it easier. If your only option was to work 100 hours a week in a factory would that make your life hard or easy? If you were a programmer and your only options was to write code in notepad would that make you more or less efficient then if you had an IDE?

    What it is, is people are lazy. Oh no, I had to click 3 things I don't understand, this is soooo harddd.

    You shouldn't get so defensive about people critiquing your system that will never be implemented, its a sign of bad character. Also if you knew anything about why match making systems are implemented in any game you'd know that it has nothing to do with making your run the way you want it, it was introduced in games to make it quick to get into an instance. The limit being added (ilvl implementation) is going to be exactly how it is in every other game which is the minimum amount of gear needed to complete the instance (usually the ilvl closest rounding down to the ilvl gear that drops).

    There is another way to fix duty finder. Get gear before you sign up. Fixed.
