How long is the healer queue now? Pre-50 and endgame

[MirielleLavandre]

Hi,
I am just wondering how the healer queue is these days? I know in the beginning of the game, healers had almost as instant queues as tanks, at least until lvl 30 when it got a little longer due to another healer being available. How long do most of you either leveling up for the first time, or already at endgame running WP/AK usually take to get into an instance?

I ask because I run a 'new player' LS but my main is a bard, so I am leveling both a PLD and WHM to be able to really help my LS, but am not sure which to focus on and/or which would really be more helpful in helping newer players, as well as which is faster to get into instances. Any insight would be helpful!

To Duty Find non-prime time I can wait up to 30 minutes. Prime time, instant to 15 minutes.

If you are leveling a job for faster queue times I would roll a Tank.

The 15-30 dungeons were all instant for me a couple weeks ago. It slowed down at 30 because SCH became the other healer, so more competition for that df spot.

Now at 50, I get instant queues for all the HM primals, and instant-20 min for WP/AK

Except, Dale Tanking isn't for everyone and healers enjoy the 2nd best queue times after tanks so that makes a lot of sense.

As a white mage I was waiting for half an hour for Sunken Temple of Qarn with a dragoon friend last night. Don't know how long it'd have eventually taken to get in since we forgot summoning our chocobos would remove us from the queue.

It seems to be slowing down for everyone, though, because I've been doing the 15-30 dungeons with a lower-level gladiator friend and we waited about 5 minutes for Toto-Rak yesterday, about mid-day Eastern, and we ended up giving-up on our first queue for Halatali this morning. We tried again a couple hours later and got in but it still took a few minutes.

I seem to average about 7 minutes for WP queues (when I queue - usually run with FC)

[Itchyness]

5-10 mins here for ak/wp. Ofc, I usually run with my fc though.

It gets better as you are higher level, it seems, at least it is on my server. Lower levels can be as long as an hour due to the fact that there are almost no tanks there (a few times I saw DL geared tank running low level dungeons for their FC friends). But now, at cutters cry at lv40, it is between instant -to- 7 minutes.
