    Que?

    So having a good time leveling my conjurer so far, first few dungeons have proven really easy. Just cure the tank when he starts to get low and cast stone.
    Anyway my question. How is the que time for healers? Will I be welcomed quickly into groups or will i be stuck in que for a while?
    Reason I am asking is that so far groups are 1 tank, 1 healer, 2 dps. That leads me to think 8 man groups will be 1 tank, 2 healer, 6 dps. So seems like dps would have the fastest que?

    8-man groups are just 2 4-man groups. 2 tanks, 2 healers, 4 dps.

    Up to level 30, healers have pretty quick queue times, but tanks are fastest. After 30, tanks stay very fast, healers drop to the middle, and dps keep the slowest queues. Because dps outnumber healers and tanks by far more than a 2:1 ratio, and healers outnumber tanks.

    I thought this was some spanish thread or something. lol

    The word you are looking for is "queue".

    DPS > Healer > Tank on queue waiting times.

    He doesn't mind us conducting trials so close to his bazaar, so long as he's properly compensated... Yes, Portus, we pay him in sorcery-blasted bird flesh. - Cocobygo

    1+2+6=9

    But no, Healers will always have fast queue times. Not instant like tanks but still ridiculously fast when compared to damage dealers.
