    Is Duty finder time getting worse.

    Its become very noticeable to me ever since 2.1 launched that now i wait anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour for a Duty finder match. Is anyone getting the same thing.

    There you go, CTRL+C CTRL+V it. Remember to give it back after you use it!

    If only this were to be a question... More people are using DF. It may be happening.

    Going toward the start of the week vs going at the end of the week effects wait times. When people are not myth capped they will be running a lot more dungeons vs toward the end of the week.

    There seems to be an issue with DF. Queues are longer, more chances of reserving instance, higher dc drop rates. Sometimes I wonder are those member have withdrawn messages are due to ttolling or it server issues.

    Queuing by myself is a guaranteed 30+ min wait.

    Queuing with a tank = insta pop.

    It depends, what are you queuing for? What are you queuing as? what time of day are you queuing? Are you using the duty roulette? are you queuing for more than one dungeon at once? What languages are you selecting?

    Basically, there is much omitted from your OP to be able to accurately assess your question\statement.

    In return, I can only comment from my experiences and use my own details. When I queue as a tank or Healer, I can get a queue in 5 min or less. Much less if i'm using the duty roulette, and that is any time of the day for those jobs. When I'm trying to level my BLM I expect a long queue time so I go off and search for quests, the odd FATE or my hunting log, or even harvest/craft while I wait because I expect a long queue time for a DPS. Sometimes upwards of 30 min or a little as 10 min. If I use the duty Roulette as DPS I can get a party in less than 10min or if I use the Party finder I can get a quick group. Also, whenever I queue I make sure I tick the "Join party in progress" button and make sure I have all 4 Language buttons selected. I'm familiar enough with the dungeons that I feel I can do them with little communication if necessary.

    Aside from just the DF/PF I try to get FC mates to help me out which makes it even quicker.

    So, no. I dont see the times getting longer at all. If anything, we have more tools at our disposal to make things quicker

    DoL/DoH, make some money while you wait if you want to do roulette/dungeons on dps.
