Increasing xp gained by dps classes in leveling dungeons

[BorisDaBlade]

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.

By that same logic, you could say we don't need "Adventurer in need" bonuses for healers and tanks either.

We really don't. I hardly notice the bonus exp and the cracked cluster is nice, but I get them from hunts just as easily.

The adventurer in need is for...the role that is in need. It is neither tank nor, more so, a healer bonus. The fact that 99% of the time it goes to the tank and that 1% left it goes to the healer is a direct result of DPS flooding the roulette. If people would flood the tank and healer role, then DPS would get the bonus. And that bonus is for the sole purpose of shortening queues by incentivizing people to change to the less-played classes. And you are equalizing it to something that does the exact opposite, being specifically a bonus for DPS, to incentivize flooding the roulette with what is already in a vast surplus, hence guaranteeing an INCREASE in wait time?!

And what happens if we get so many tanks and healers that dps' are a rare thing? Hm? Que times are a bad joke and things like "play healer/tank" are not helping.

But the whole point of this thread is because he want xp on a DPS duuuuuuh.
Seriously, did you really think about what you write or..?

"I'd like to hit lvl 70 faster with my drg !"
"Level up a healer or a tank then"

Otherwise, it's nice to say "yeah, have a FC and friends".
But your friends don't always play the same time as you do, these friends may not have the same lvl of the class you want xp for.
I won't do Stone Vigil with my healer friend if i have the level to do Shisui, there's absolutely no gain from this...

Tank and healers have fast queue and Cluster.
Dps could get a little +10% xp.

It's absolutely fair.

Faster queue is just a result of having less people in the queue, not something given to a specific role. The Cluster is not given to tanks and healers because of their roles, but given to the role with a shortage in supply.

Hence, to be aboslutely fair, that +10% EXP needs to be given to the role with the longest queue, meaning that when there's a shortage of DPS, then the DPS gets the fast queue and the Cluster, while the tank or the healer, whichever has more people queueing, gets the +10% EXP.

Now that is fair.

Whether it would actually help with the long queues, is another matter altogether.

not really, the bonuses are worthless, so i would be really salty someone getting a bonus who can sit around and do nothing while i have to work more ( I say work because most people make healing stressful)
is 1k gil worth anything to you? a cluster is worth less then that to me right now. (hoping 4.1 changes that and allows me sell off my 60 odd clusters)
