Tank queues for the 24 mans are awful, actually. You get faster queues as a dps. But that, along with what you described, are exactly why a token system would work better. Want to grab glamour gear or upgrades for your tank but don't want to be in queue for half an hour? Run on your geared dps or healer, get a token that you can use for tank gear. Or in the situation you described, run on your job that meets the minimum ilvl, but use the token you get to trade in for ninja gear.

And if you do try to get the gear, it can easily lock you out of other content as you spend the entire week just running the raid over and over, passing on the same items again and again. Not leaving time for anything else.
Yes, you get it. That's actually partially what prompted me to write this. I really want the tank gear for glamour but between the tank queues being awful and then there being a good chance tank gear won't even drop, I just feel like my time is better spent doing anything else. The fact that the gear drops are set up the way they are actually is discouraging me from running it more than once a week, not encouraging me to run it multiple times.
