    Msq shinanigans aside, you could have 9 tanks and healers and 3 or 4 dps, and most players would still play dps. It's a pretty solid fact that most people don't want the stress/complications of playing a tank or healer. Especially when they tend to get blamed for any and all problems in party situations. So most play dps to just fire away at enemy's.

    Yes, another healer and tank or 2 *may* help a bit. But more than likely it'll be current tanks/healers testing out the new tanks/healers.

    Also, as a few others have said, I'm a healer. I play sch. But I'm currently occupied getting Sam up as it's an amazing class I've been waiting for. And I probably won't touch my healer much outside of friends asking for help with lower stuff that Ill run

    I've never once waited that long. Longest is like 40 something? Not great but there is so much to do while waiting it's not even an issue.

    I can't say I've really noticed a problem with queue times.

    Man of course the Queues are even longer for a DD now.. Since the new job classes which are leveled now by 90% of the people are damage dealers only.

    There is no new healer or tank class. So of course the queue should be higher than normally for a dd so shortly after SB launch.
    You will see this is going to be back at normal in one / several week(s).

    Though the dd queue will ever be longer.

    And there is an other solution for you: get a guild and group up with them. Problem solved.

    I've never understood the anxiety over tanking, it's never been insanely hard, and I've not once gotten criticism in about thirteen years of doing it except sometimes when I'd get carried away with some huge pulls.

    People should give it a try, it's fun and you generally get to set the pace of the dungeon

    Most people don't like leading, and there's the chance that you get assholes who either berate you for not pulling enough or berate you because you pulled too much and caused a wipe.

    I have no problem tanking for friends though.

    A problem I had not foreseen...

    Because the new jobs start at 50, and the 50/60 roulette exists, low level queues have been all but nonexistent. My husband waited as a tank for over 45 minutes on an alt. I tried to queue for leveling roulette on a baby healer alt and waited a similar time before I had to simply withdraw because there were other things demanding my attention outside the game at the time.

    Just need more people willing to step back form DPS and try tanking/healing. Then again, when they put new awesome DPS jobs, it does make it hard for people to want to do that. I can see why healers and tanks are needed for dungeons, unless they make story quest dungeons not need healers and tanks, I doubt they will take off the restriction. You could find some people to join up with, and try it that way. I'm sure there are some people that would be willing to help.
