    what do you think is a good solution?
    As i am doing book for weapon atma, i guess a good solution is to be able to seek as healer or tank and be able to achieve the DPS weapon to get the boss count still (puting a weaponcase in the armory to equip the weapon without having any effect ?) .
    It would make people want to seek as tank/healer and get asap in a dungeon for their books.

    It may be not the best solution but it will contribute higly for sure.

    I tried doing tank (PLD, but I am also leveling WAR - because I need to see which Im more comfortable with), and I actually do healer, even if my main ais dps (and I agree queues are longer), but the fact that if I go in the DF as tank or healer (I am not very good (i got better slowly with practice), but hell I do try), and I get bashed for me losing aggro - no thank you (or for getting aggro as healer) so, if I actually do HAVE to tank, I do it when I know the party. And if I need to get a dungeon done as a DPS, thanks god I have friends who have multiple roles like me - so I find myself a tank or a healer or both from a FC or linkshel. But tanking for randoms? Too much stress... I did started as main tank... then I switched out - as I am first to admit I am not a really good tank, but I do try.

    But still, even with my DPS I never got to wait 111 minutes, max it was 80 for CT because people kept withdrawing when it came up.

    Saying this as Tank main

    Maybe they should made some kind of quota or something. Like playing tank in 5 dungeons will put your on top of DPS dungeon queue priority for 1 dungeon.

    Sounds dumb, I know.

    You can't hit yourself in the head with a hammer then complain about a headache. I get it, you get it, everyone gets it, DPS queue times are long. There is a real easy solution to this...... queue as tank. "But I don't wanna play as a tank" , Why? you get Tomes to buy whatever piece of DPS gear you want. ALL DF dungeons are extremely easy to tank and are forgiving to undergeared and new players. you literally can do a expert roulette queue + run time in about 30 mins. Why on earth would you ever wait over an HOUR just to get into a roulette. My personal favorite is when i get instant pop into a run and the DPS start screaming for "bigger pulls" or run off and agro more mobs and bring them to me. You will wait over an hour to get in, but heaven forbid the run takes 5 minutes longer. It is true for Animus books that you have to do the dungeons as a specific job, but not for Novus alex map quests. Broaden your horizons, learn to heal and tank. You can do it, I promise you no one is going to make fun of you. It is a game and you should be enjoying it.... all of it. I'm not saying main a tank, I understand you love to pew pew big numbers, I'm just saying DF a tank job and you will see the time spent waiting for DPS queues will instantly vanish *poof* /rant

    The solution is to get together with three other people having the same problem (shouldn't be too hard to find) and run dungeons together in sets of four. You each get two runs as NIN (or whatever other DPS roles you're trying to level), one run as a healer, and one as a tank. That's a lot of DPS leveling with no queue times, in exchange for spending part of your time on other classes as well. Just because you want to main a DPS class or are focused on leveling that alt class at the moment, doesn't mean you can't mix in some others as well. (Especially when you can get in four dungeon runs with a group in about the time you spend waiting in queue for just one.)
