Increase DF speeds by setting weekly lockouts per role

[Einheri]

This isn't a new idea the OP has suggested. With the currency caps people argued why should I be punished for having more time to play than others. As the caps are a artificial gate to keep players with time more inline with the players with less play time. The first suggestion usually is well what if the cap is per role or even class. This is just a ploy to get more for time played vs others and yoshi himself has said no to the idea because it would make players feel obligated to do something they don't want in order to keep up.

This lock idea is poorly stated. At first glance it seems the op wants to lock you out of play at cap to force you to change roles to help ques. This seems to be a diversion from the real goal of getting more tomes per lock out period as it is a very poor solution.

I play warrior. I like to tank. A benefit of tanking is que times. Once my gear on my tank is where i want it to be from tomes i gear my whm then smn. The Op suggestion would punish me because if i wanted to gear like i currently do i would either have to play more and/or play a role i would rather not.

This would effectively hurt que times. As i am a skilled and well geared tank i would have to que a less needed role increasing que times and play a role i enjoy less. Because tanking would be useless to me to gear up alt jobs.

Ques for dps are longer because there are more of them compared to tanks and healers. On top of population difference are behavioral.

Tanks especially good ones are sought after. When i que i ask my guild if any one wants to leech my que time. If we dont fill a party i go to the pf. The DF for me is a last resort. So that takes even more tanks out of the DF que.

Best thing for the op would be to use the social tools available to you. Guild, linkshell, friends list, pf and last resort df. this is a mmo and people always seem to forget the social aspect.
