    I however, enjoy the randomness that is the DF and will typically solo queue over going as a group. I'm only around 1900 dungeon/trial clears, but I can count the amount of times I've seen toxicity in the DF for normal DF runs (not counting EX primals) on both my hands. This tells me that the DF isn't really that toxic, just that people report on their bad experiences more often than they do their good ones.
    As a tank (which is my main but slowly going dps), my runs last about 20 to 25 minutes tops (the main issue is the gating, rarely the dps), and as a dps my runs are pretty much the same.
    DF and premade can pretty much last the same time and considering I've done above 3k dungeon runs (according to my achievements at least: does mentor status help proving it?), I never ever felt the need to do a premade.
    Except for raiding and fast queues as a dps.

    And to be very honest, I hardly met toxic people in my DF runs, mostly because they are silent and hardly filled with Drama, which happened more in premades, so much that is my main reason for quitting the raiding scene.
    Infact in all of my gaming time in this game, I only had ONE bad time in DF and it was more amusing than stressful, but when it comes to premade...oh boy, let's just say that I could compare it to my raiding experience in WoW....post wotlk.

    And with that said, end of the offtopic: this thread is about parsers.
