Suggestion for long Duty Finder queues

[Logue_Windsrider]

As a tank, DF is great. It's fine as a healer. It sucks as DPS. When I want to queue as DPS, the time is often MUCH longer than is indicated. I'm not complaining about times, however. Most DPS have grown to expect sucky queue times but here's what sucks about it: You can't party up meanwhile.

1. Hunts. You need a party to get full credit.
2. Companion. Kicks you out of the queue.

Is there a reason it seems you don't want players getting the max out of their time?

As a result, I often resort to going to a quiet place in-game, turning up the volume, taking a nap or doing some other real life activity and hoping I hear the chime to alert me that DF is ready.

Here's the fix: Same as the duty finder won't let you in if you're not the class you queued as, it won't let you in if you're in a party until you leave the party and are alone or with the others you queued with. Queuing as a group can get hairy, but I'm sure it could be figured out. Please consider this.

I've got it. When queuing as a group, and additional members join party post-queue, what the DF pops, you can simply require everyone to disband and they all remain "bound" through the duty finder so they all just leave the party, ensure they're the class they queued as and are allowed in.

If only this was true because the new system is extremely horrible. Only thing to do is to hide in a quiet corner and turn your volume on extremely high then take a nap.
