The longer a person is spending in the old content where less and less people are, the less time they are spending in the new content. I had just talked about this with some people in my FC the other day. It seems they could make a really easy change now that would aid in this problem.
    I think the devs want to make the pre50 dungeons (all or only some) soloable with hired Grand Company NPCs.

    For a quick fix for this they could easily just remove the once a day limit to the low level roulette. Give players the ability to do it as many times as they want with unlimited chances for xp bonus rewards for completing it. People would level up faster. There would also be more people joining the queue so wait times would likely decrease.
    i'm sure with 2.51 more people will do the low level dungeons again, if the bosses drop good Triple Triad cards. It don't need unlimited tokens.
    Also for unlimited roulette reward most people would just queue as dps again. What it need is better "role in need" reward. Give the tanks something to do the dungeons as tanks.

    The mercs idea seems like it would be tough to actually do given some of the mechanics of the fights. Either they would need to make them super buffed to be able to stand in effects or smart enough to move in and out when needed. Seems like either would be significant challenge.

    Yes, I am sure that a lot of dps would be in the queue, however that is only because there are more dps jobs in the game. Compared to the other archetypes, there are double the amount of jobs.

    As per the triple triad thought, it seems like this is a band-aid fix. Sure it may bolster the numbers for now, but it does not seem like a long term fix.
