    Increasing xp gained by dps classes in leveling dungeons

    This would at least make up for the discrepancy in queue times, putting the leveling ability on par with tanks and healers.

    I know there are lots of ways to level dps classes outside of dungeons, but the game is basically dungeon based. Using other leveling methods effectively hampers dps skill set at end game.

    Thoughts?

    Find an FC, make some friends & acquaintances to run content with, wonder why you ever thought dps had que times.

    FC, make friends with people who play healer and tank. We don't need preferential treatment for DPS just because there are more of you then healers and tanks.

    You want faster XP then play healer or tank, you have the same opportunity to have fast ques.

    I'm quite tired of the "join a fc and make friends" answer. People play at odd times, or just don't want to pester anyone or whatever.

    Tanks and healers don't need to join an fc to level fast. Why do dps have to?

    Btw. I main pld i332 and whm i320. Im not asking this strictly for myself to level MY other classes. It's a problem for a lot of dps. Having to beg in pf or pester fc members shouldn't be a requirement

    I'll be honest, dungeon exp is already pretty decent. It's also better to pair it with roulettes. PotD is technically a dungeon too, which will net you a decent sum. Pre-60, PotD will get you there pretty fast. Post 60 the dungeon exp is just...insane. Probably better than PotD. PvP is also decent provided you win. This is all coming from someone who mains a dps class. Queue times vary depending on the instance, but 20-30 min for a queue really isn't that bad. Just do other things while you wait.

    If you can't find someone or multiple someones, list yourself in the party finder or simply queue up. Problem solved.

    It's not a requirement. DPS can just solo queue just like healers and tanks do.

    Try making friends with people who play at all sorts of hours. I only have three DPS classes left and I just manage to use my time better while waiting for dungeons to pop. I get a lot of fates done at night.

    And if you really want EXP but don't want to wait? You can always do Palace solo since it's pretty easy.

    In regards to just my DPS classes:

    In A Realm Reborn, I had BRD, DRG, NIN to Level 50.
    In Heavensward, I had BRD, DRG, NIN to Level 60.
    In Stormblood, I have NIN, SAM, RDM to Level 70.

    Point is, it honestly really isn't difficult to level a DPS class. Few people realize it, but some xp is better than no xp. That said, I find myself spamming the roulette even after I did the Daily. The Roulettes are kind to DPS classes except Leveling Roulette.

    But if you're under Lv50, Palace of the Dead is your friend.

    Do something else while waiting for your queue to pop. FATEs or leves or whatever. That way you'll level at a similar pace to tanks and healers.
