Open Discussion: DPS Qeue fix ideas

[Jybril]

Your input is appreciated though I must stress that this varies by server group. Mine averages at 30-40 for dungeons and 25 for trials. I don't particularly mind waiting , but I know lots of people playing dps with limited time do.

Depends on Data Center.
I guess here in Aether you got like 80 things up as we speak. :/
Tanks and heals come pretty quick in PF since we host the biggest servers here.

I do think adding a 3rd DPS in party would help as Alpha says.

I don't understand why this game only have 4 players group especialy since they went the hyrbide way (DPS with utility deal less dmg).

Having spot for 3 even 4 DPS in a group would not only lower the queue time for DPS. It would help balance for DPS class IMO.

A lot of buff would be more usefull while grouping if groups weren't just 2 DPS with a queue mechanic favoring having 1 range and 1 melee just to be sure some buff goes to waste.

That does suck. On my server I usually get into Expert in less than 15 minutes, Leveling around the same and Trials in less than 10.

I actually like having a bit of downtime between queues as it let's me do my daily hunts or level a gatherer or something.

Honestly I was all for the idea of potentially doing it as 1/1/3. After all if more DPS are going at once, that is more people getting through all together. May not be a bigger influx but if you have 1 tank/healer and 3 dps, every two pair that go is one less tank/healer needed to do the same amount of dps. Assuming I am even wording myself correctly or to a point it is understood. I wouldn't even expect it to be done for all dungeons, just from here forward.

SE revolves this game around light parties of 4 and parties of 8. they wont make it 5 man dungs because of this. it would throw off the entire balancing team from dung to 8man primals to 24man raids. its all about the 4s and evenly balancing all the content. but if ur sick of DPS times you could always level a tank. they are piss easy to play.

1 healer, 1 tank, 38 DPS.

Honestly the moment SE decided to not just stick with the trinity, but ENFORCE it as well, was the moment this was going to happen. DPS has been and will always be in any MMO, Hero Shooter, MOBA or otherwise the most popular over-saturated, overpopulated role period. The old school mentality is just that, old school ... However do you know what would happen if they dropped it and started working on Hybridization? Everyone would then complain about hybridization and that they don't feel special anymore! So coming back to this "frustration" DPS feel that they can't get pugs, super-fast and super-now: Use PF instead. Oh I know it involves work and a little bit of interaction with other players and that might be "hard" and "annoying" and "stressful" but you know what? It will be better than you waiting for half an hour complaining that you can't get a party when everyone and their grandmaw who DPSes are trying to do the same darn thing. Or you know what? Pick up one of the other 2 roles if you are so bored.

i dont know, maybe a new healer and tank class for Stormblood!!?

no, seriously. i think that is what they should be focusing on right now.
