    DR: Main Scenario Queue Times?

    Hello, friends. I just hit 50 this week on my Bard and I've been desperately trying to run Duty Roulettes for Main Scenario for the past few days. Every time I try to queue, I end up waiting well over 30 minutes. I understand that DPS have really long queue times and that's ok; but I can never get in an instance only for the Main Scenario. I have friends that are DPS classes and are able to get in within 15 minutes.

    Currently, my queue time expired is at 64 minutes. Is this normal? Thank you for any help!

    I usually do my daily beast tribe quests while queued and never notice how long it takes - always manage to get in before I finish all 6. Great way to kill two birds.

    Thanks for your reply! I try to do the same, but it still takes a good amount of time afterwards to get my queue to pop... I'm not sure if it's something wrong with me or if it's normal for people to wait so long!

    It generally took me ~30 minutes for either story or low-level duty roulette. That's pretty much 'good' from my general experience with the duty finder.
    The queue times on other content have pushed me to the point, I'm ready to walk away however...

    Thank you for your reply, too! Glad to hear it's not just me.

    Strange, I'm a DRG and thus should get the horribad dps queue times, yet when it comes to MS DR I never have to wait more than 20 minutes usually. Granted, I end up running them either at noon or in the evenings, so perhaps I'm simply doing them at opportune times, but still.

    As someone else suggested, just try to do something to occupy yourself with while you wait for the queue to pop. It may be annoying having to wait, but eh, queues for anything but tanks seems to be horrible in my experience.
