I am so happy I didn't level to 70 as a DPS!

Nah, this can't be right. Yoshi P said there would be no increase in queue times because tanks would keep playing tanks and healers would keep playing healers!

that's only in reference to roulettes/raids in "endgame". players who can tank/heal at level cap will switch to tank/heal for short queues. he knows it will a problem for leveling, hence adding XP to PvP and the FATE XP bonus.

It pays off. it might suck to level a DPS now, but the moment they release 24 man raids it's going to be 12 DPS for only 3 tanks and the roles will be reversed. Tanks tend to suffer a little bit on the end game on the long run. I still remember the chaos it was for my tank friends to be able to get into some Savage farm parties because there's no tank spots left.

Designing a whole new job, quest lines, artifact gear, weapon itemization, all just to address queues? Doubtful. They still have considerable balance issues to address for the jobs we got now. The only "easy" thing they could do is buff the HP of all critters in current instances to accommodate for 3 DPS per Party in dungeons instead of 2. That would cut DPS queues times by 50%.

I'm a level 64 rdm I did dailies and potd until 60 and then I hit level 63 in the first dungeon because I got side tracked doing fates and side quests while doing msq. Tbh you can even do it this way with the dungeon wait and you'll rack up decent exp too Longest I had to wait I believe was 40 mins.

What they really need to do is stop designing encounters that require the tank to be the end all/be all. I tanked up until now, but I just can't do it anymore. It is just too much work in this game. You have to know every last bit of every dance required for each fight. I can wing it on nearly every fight as a dps and definitely as a healer. Kill the adds, don't stand in the bad stuff, click on the clickies, assist the tank works for the vast majority of DPS responsibilities in dungeons without knowing specifics of any fight. Just those things in mind will keep you alive 99% of the time as a dps. Healer is completely braindead. Don't stand in bad and cure effects when possible is all you need to know. As a tank you have to know every ability and every sequence and execute perfectly or everyone dies, there is no winging it on anything.
