    Actually I think that ability to queue up for duty when you have your chocobo out would make the queues shorter than adding another DPS slot.
    Right at this moment there are probably hundreds of people who rather decided to take their chocobo for a casual stroll over the Eorzea than queue up.

    Definitely. This again is a self-perpetuating thing - it's quicker and easier to grind out the higher levels via FATEs, and it's easier to do that either in a group or with your chocobo out, both of which prevent you from queuing in DF. Apart from the daily roulette, I don't think I queued for a single dungeon from 30+ on my PLD, because in the time it took me to run through a dungeon with a 90% chance of getting horrible DPS that took forever to clear the place, I could just farm FATEs and get more XP.

    Of course, the flip side is that when DPS are faced with 30+ minutes of queuing while they can't party or get their chocobo out, they'd probably rather drop out and grind FATEs as well, so it probably regulates both sides of the queue as much as each other...

    Very much this. Doing stuff with your chocobo while qued would solve many annoyances and personally I have never understood why we can't do that. Just have the choco withdraw when everyone has accepted the duty. Another things was those quests you had do alone, just make the choco act like the player is in town when you enter one of those and we wouldn't have to constantly summon and withdraw him when doing main story.

    For WoD I queue as a DPS, because I can get in much faster than if I went as tank.

    I'm all for adding a third DPS for future dungeons. Current dungeons shouldn't be adjusted though.

    No it wont. It will make them longer for dps. Tanks/healers don't have this problem since they don't have to wait for a queue most of the time. The queue up when they are ready, no need to pull a choco out since it won't be long. This will just add more to the dps poll then the others. That said I still hope they allow us to queue with a choco, I just don't see it helping queue times. It will just make them more tolerable.

    que times

    played one mmo that fixed the problem. they made all dungeons have a solo option to them. it made them easy to do but downfall you didnt get any items from them. they did it so you could complete a quest and for leveling.

    I agree, but for a different reason. I've been playing this game for almost a year but when I first watched my friend play, I was really annoyed by how LONG it takes to kill mobs in dungeons, especially low lvl ones.

    Add another DPS in, if only just to lower the amount of time we spend killing random monsters.
