[Poll] Party Size Increase?

[Riviere]

A fifth slot for a dps would be nice. While it may not make a huge difference in DPS queues, it should help a little bit, better than nothing.

4 is fine for a light party.
changing this would involve reworking all of the mechanics and would also change a full party to 10. All current fights are done with the 4 and 8 member party in mind. The leeway on a lot of mechanics would go away (which people who think the game is too easy would like but...) and the bosses would go down even easier than they do now.
4 is also the traditional max for most FFs
Also, queue times would increase, despite what you may think about more space=shorter lines, this also means you actually have to FILL those spots.
In other words, this isn't going to happen. Ever.

I like DC Universe's version of the Duty Finder. You can have 4 DPS in the run (you have the option to set if you want this to happen, though). Worried about healing? No problem. As long as the group stick together as one unit, you get a nice Regen effect. Still need to use healing items, though.

I have to deal with 2 dps that more often than not have straw for brains. Now you want me to deal with 4 of them?

wow
how nice....not

good thing all roles have terrible players huh...seen them all hundreds of times...equally "dem tanks"

At any rate, I would love to have anything to decrease df timers for dps but tbh I kinda like odds of finding only 3 other "humane" players..not 5.

Not a bad suggestion though, never hurts to see what ppl think and more importantly what SE thinks

DPS queue will never change as far as time goes. Some folks don't want the responsibility of tanking or healing.

Even if it's broken into TANK, HEALER, MELEE DPS, RANGE DPS, it will still be slow due to the number of BRDs, BLMs, and SMNs out there.

Remove the melee/range role order then.

With a new tank and healing class incoming, queues will become amazingly quick for quite a while even for DPS classes. I would wait and see how the cards fall after that before planning any more major changes. I can only speak for myself as to why I avoided playing either of those classes but I can promise it was not because of wanting less responsibility.

It was because paladins and warriors are as generic as can get as far as tanking classes go, they are not interesting at all to me just like they were not very interesting in WoW which is why I made a druid tank and a DK tank instead. A DRK tank in this game interests me so that is why I plan on making one and not making a tank prior has nothing to do with responsibility.

No its already annoying to find groups as a tank. Espically for a lot of EXs where people want to single tank, garuda, titan, rahmu, shiva. Makes it very annoying to try and join pony farm on a tank because they already filled that spot so fast.

Only way I thing this works is if they introduce debuf/buff class.

This!

From my experience, you are correct. Heck, even some groups do solo heal, so that shuts out me going as WHM.
