    [suggestion]A fix for the waiting time on low level dungeons

    The group dungeons are a mess. If I join as a healer I usually take from 1sec to 5min to start. As a DPS it goes forever. The solution would be simple, though. SE would just need to add a 3rd DPS in the group.

    Yes, don't worry, it would make things faster not slower. because each healer/tank would "serve" 3 DPS instead of 2, cleaning up the DPS queue faster. Obviously the the difficulty should be made harder and they should give up more loot accordingly.

    They're never gonna do that...
    Think about it, with 1 DPS more you would wait, what, 5 mins less?
    And they should modify the Light Party from 4 to 5 members, make every dungeon harder and modify all the loot tables just to make you save 5 minutes.
    In Cerberus in every low level dungeon I have to wait from 50 mins to 2-3 hours, as healer or as dps.

    It would actually decrese it by alot. But the question is if we want that party dynamic? I like the 1/1/2 party dynamic here. ALOT more than 1/1/3 that I have seen in WoW. It makes each DPS count alot more. You can not simply suck and get away with it.

    In my FC, they always try to get a Tank or a Healer to run the dungeon with them. And, if possible, fill all the roles with free company members.

    The way things work, long queue times are an incentive to get you more involved with your FC.

    He doesn't mind us conducting trials so close to his bazaar, so long as he's properly compensated... Yes, Portus, we pay him in sorcery-blasted bird flesh. - Cocobygo

    I know what you mean, but my FC still being not that small (at least compared with few others I checked) doesn't get more than a dozen people online, usually half of it.

    Regarding the light party, I know it isn't the best solution gameplay wise , but it is the one that would allow DPS to join dungeons and other random party activities in a reasonable time, when right now it may be simply impossible to join them. It is simple math. Going from 2h as a DPS to 1 sec as a Healer to join is way out of proportions. SE really should do something.

    Unless it's because the game is still young, thus not many people started to make healers as cross-classes yet. Once people start growing more healers it may change.

    I just wish they would make dungeons an optional way to get better gear instead of making them a requirement to continue your quest line.
