    [Suggestion] - Queuing for Duty Finder

    I'm not sure if this has been suggested before and explained if it can't be done but I thought I'd put it here anyhow.

    While queuing for Duty Finder would it be possible to implement a system that allows you to queue as multiple classes. Currently if you're trying to do something that isn't run very much you kind of have to guess which class might get you in quickest and it's not always the "tank queue is best".

    If you could queue as multiple classes and it lets you in on the first one needed I feel it would help people through queues faster. For example I want to queue for the Lighthouse so I tell DF I can queue as a WAR, MNK, RDM and WHM and it'll pop for me when one of those spots is available, I change to the correct class and click in to the duty.

    I think if it let you queue as something in the same role (tank, healer or dps), that would be fine but if you could queue for multiple roles then players could easily change their mind and back out or end up giving an unrealistic wait time for the finder. Like I know some players are happy to queue as anything but the game kinda rewards you for queuing as the Adventurer in Need.

    It could maybe just be you only get that bonus if you queue as just that role, if you opt to queue for multiple classes then you don't get the Adventurer in need bonus that way you can choose to queue for time saving or bonus.

    I'd hope though that people would only queue for something they are happy to play in that instance though you're probably right, people may queue for everything then get a class they don't like to much and back out. Maybe tank, dps and healer would be better options.

    I hope that the scaling of items on the dungeons will be removed because that's how collecting better items does not make sense if you do not feel that you are stronger.

    I agree with the gear scaling otherwise a level 70 DPS could take agro from a lower geared and lower level Tank who just simply can't keep up as of the damage output from the DPS. I do think we should keep all of our skills though. I hate going into Sastasha Normal as a level 70 Monk and only having 4 moves. I think lower level dungeons would be much more interesting if I could do my full rotation still just obviously doing less damage so the tank can still keep agro. Though there are agro dumps just in dungeons some people don't think to use them. :S
