Perfect Tank/Healer Shortage solution

[monochromicorn]

This option would only happen in Roulettes... you would not be able to pic DZE and do that farming anyway. This is only to help with DPS queue time not everything.

even then, i can queue up with roulettes as many times as i want. with the 50% bonus for having a lv 50, and no queue time, my archer would still skyrocket. i got my tank up to 50 in a couple days, it would be easy to do it with any other class with this in place

You wouldn't be treated as level 50 you would be treated as the same as the class your leveling..

THINK OF just becoming the same level as your class your trying to level.. BUT YOUR A TANK or HEALER NO EXP BONUS.. No nothing.. your just earning exp for one class under a different class..

Quit trying to skew the straight foward idea with all this nonsense.

If you want to queue up a billion times thats fine.. guess what you aren't getting squat in a roulette as a tank for joining the level 10 Roulettes without the daily bonus..

you're*

first, if i levelled tank to 50 in a matter of days, thanks to no queue times, its not going to be any different for any class, did the same thing with my WHM. it took me a week and 2 days to get my BLM to 50, because of work and the little time i have to play, and most of it being wasted in queue, worked on gatherer while waiting(lv 50 btn, 21min, and 26 fisher).

second, they wont take away the +50% exp per kill, because that is something you earned for getting to lv 50 with any class

so, before you want to accuse me of trying to "skew" anything, why dont you just accept the fact that what you have proposed has very basic flaws, and stop acting like im trying to troll you.

And what is exactly wrong with cutting the queue times for everyone? Which this would solve to get their dailies done. Oh i only have 20 min real quick i can do at least a guildhiest.. NO... No you can't its early morning no one around.

Oh i want to do the 8 player one... people stay in 40 min cause 2 high level tanks and 2 high level healers never show up or get queued in with lower level players that dont need that level 40. And the ones that do queue in drop out after waiting for 5 min cause they are used to instant queue.

The system is there so you dont have to bother friends for simple things or Hire a tank or healer.

You "earn" that as soon as you have one class that's higher level than another. The only time level 50 matters for it is when your second+ class(es) are level 49.

i get the 50% bonus with any of the classes, and i got it as soon as i got my monk to 50. it is always useful, not just at 49.

You don't have to be 50 is the thing. It starts as soon as you're able to open up other classes, and is there as long as you have one class that's any higher than your current class. Level 10 when your highest class is 11? 50% bonus. Level 49 is the only level where you need a level 50 to get the bonus, since every level before that, your highest class can be 1 level higher and still get it.

I already run into lvl50 players that don't know how to play their class. Allowing people to level up DPS without even playing it is a terrible idea. I encounter enough subpar players every day, please no more. Just suck it up and do fates or hunting logs while you wait.

it still doesnt solve the issue. the roulette only puts you in the instance with the most people queueing for that needs your role. since not many people ever queue for, like the 8-man guildhest you mentioned, its not going to put you there as a roulette duty. also, imagine all those dps that would then change to healer, just to get fast queue times and faster exp gain, or switch to tanks, for the same reason. it would essentially eliminate dps roles as a whole, because who wants to roll a dps with 45+ minute wait time when you can roll a tank with instaqueue and transfer all that exp to a dps class? getting to level 10 with a dps, opening up the guildhest roulette, granting over 800 exp per run for a couple minutes of effort. you can essentially level a class from 10 to 50, without ever playing it past lv 10. tell me how you learn to properly play a class if you suddenly get every single skill and never have practice with the class at all?
