I actually see a lot of DPS who don't follow marking. Target one does not equal Target two! And when they smack it and steal hate... Frustrated Idiocity does not mean your tank sucks for 'not holding hate'. And if you do it enough, I'm probably going to let you die.

I don't really get bothered by dps queues because I avoid them entirely (I just don't go in the first place unless I have tank or healer available). Still gonna complain about the most annoying queue in the game though.

Amdapor Keep: The full group queue. They have too few instances for that dungeon so in primetime you can sit in queue for nearly an hour with a full premade! It is ridiculous!

Oof, no excuses for this. SE and their apparent inability to use appropriate server infrastructure strikes again...

I've been itching to make a conjurer for this reason exactly, only problem being I can't decide on an appearance or name for the character. ;_;

I think people are avoiding queues as DPS because I had to wait 5-10 minutes go get a DPS for Titan (story mode) when grouped with a healer and DPS from my LS (I am tank). Once I hit 30+ content, I also had to queue a while as white mage (my 1.0 job)! I must have been competing with all the scholars.

This might show how much of a nerd I am but whenever I get into a queue as a DPS, I go and craft, do leves, and listen to podcasts while I work.  Usually it's stuff like "Stuff Mom Never Told You" or "Things You Missed in History Class".  It keeps my mind occupied.

I've also been known to read a book in queue.

It usually takes me half an hour to queue as DPS in eastern time evening.
Protip: convince a healer or tank friend to queue with you. It significantly shortens the wait.
I also usually ask around my LS's or FC if anyone wants to join. Since we all suffer this at one point or another, people have been pretty nice with helping, especially if it's for story-advancing purposes.

Ermahgerd!

Leveling X'chail, I've done all my dungeons with premade groups where I ran heals as an Arcanist and had no problems. What do Conjies have that I don't anyway!?

Then I started leveling my pure DPS alt and am sorely lacking for contacts on Gilga, so I queued as DPS. 2 hour wait, at 9am on a Wednesday, for Copperbell Mines. And then the tank left and the healer didn't speak English... Thanks but no thanks, I'll just make some friends instead.

How nefarious Square, forcing me to SOCIALIZE on your multiplayer game!
