    Let's help the DPS queues

    Since SAM and RDM got announced we knew that DPS queues would be bad, and as predicted they are. I am a tank and have found myself having instant queues and I have been using this to help my fellow DPS friends through content.

    I wanted to make this thread for people to pledge their support, for tanks and healers to offer themselves as available to queue up with newly made friends rather than using the DF, and for DPS to find people on their world that they can queue up with in order to progress more easily .

    As a community we can help this problem until it gets ironed out over time.

    If I have it unlocked, I'm willing to offer my services as a tank to the Louisoix server. But, remember, it can also be done datacentre wide (for that I think we need datacentre-wide Discords, I'll start promoting the Chaos one in a bit), and so, if someone from another server on the same datacentre needs me, my services are also available. I don't want to charge for it though, so I like the initiative this presents.

    As I'm sure you are well aware, it takes more than one person to be able to kick a player from a duty, so in all those instances there were at least two people agreeing they'd be better off without you tanking.

    Nope. I try not to team up with randos. One bad rando DPS ruined it for the rest of them by forcing my to pull multiple groups in a leveling dungeon.

    Implet a time limited(as long ques are sooo terrible..) Weekly quests - that gives a fair amount of exp! for example: in 15mins Steps. max. 150mins! Every 15mins wait time on DF should give 5% of needed exp of the class you currently registerd on DF! o_o At minute 105 - You gain a one times bonus by 10% of needed exp, at limit 150: its 20% bonus!

    If they don't like the queues, how about they just roll tank or healer? I know I won't be tanking for them.

    I will que as many times as it takes to get me to 70 for all my healers. It is not my job to drag people through dungeons I get 0 from.

    That said, I am always willing to drag leafs through leveling style dungeons, but full blooded long term players? No, you knew what you were getting into.

    Sounds like you have what someone referred to as Tankiety. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...u-deal-with-it this thread may help you get some tips on how to deal with it. Good luck out there friend.

    as much as I'd like to agree to that suggestion i just cant, theres a lot of tanks i noticed before stormblood came out who are just....... crap, wouldnt surprise me if they didnt learn it off of others too. If they have previous experience and can tank properly it would be great but otherwise it might be more of a hindrance.
