GROUPING DESIGN ON PS4 REALLY BAD!!

Just started playing ESO being as i have a ps4 the game was on sale thought id pick it up great game i enjoyed it up to the 6+ HOUR WAIT for a dungeon as a dps still never entered ... WTF im interested in which person at zen has never played a mmo before clearly they missed something with mmos even more so wth the console ports!!! Im not quite sure that the devs understand that dps ALWAYS out number tanks and healers!!! with no chat and i dont have friends playing this game makes grouping even worse .. JOIN A GUILD you say ummm how!! Do i just message random ppl through psn looking to join a guild i hate when randoms just message me wanting to be friends etc .. ive read some charge fees to join or sell stuff !! BAH!! so really my only hope is to advertise for a guild on the forums !! what a joke!! Now i understand some of these things will be fixed text chat is comming for consoles etc ... I wonder why this wasnt added at the start is it a mmo for pc mac and a shared experiance for console players DESTINY springs to mind ATLEAST there grouping works better there ... I see all these mages running around in low lvl zones alot of noobs not unlike my self are they really aware they have wasted there time being dps because the grouping is such a mess?? with no class change and low exp gains they have to start a tank or healer class just to get a dungeon run!! FIXES SHOULD INCLUDE!! More incentives for tanks and healers to do lowbie runs because clearly at 6 hour waits the lvl adjust is just a joke!! Text chat NEEDS to come and come soon even a party finder where you can advertise for ppl for groups which will make less clutter on text chat windows.. more room for rmt but hey its a catch 22!! :) IAM ALSO WONDERING IF THE FIX FOR GROUPING PATCH IS DLC ONLY COSTING ME CROWNS TO GET BETTER GROUPING??? I dont understand why these things were not added from the start.. FFXIV ARR has these things and while dps classes get the longer queue waits ( NOT 6 DAMN HOURS ) its eased by SMART options and ideas!! In the end i have enjoyed this game but not being able to get groups and waiting for so long and still not getting a dungeon run has left a very bad taste in my mouth.. P.S wtf is with allowing a dps to queue as a tank or healer???? admittedly i did get into 2 groups when i queued my lvl 11 dps as a tank or healer needless to say we failed and the group broke up!!! SO WHY ALLOW IT??

    ouch.. wall of text... paragraphs are your friend.. well at least a friend to our eyes..

    As far as LFG system.. the system is totally screwed up... example.

    I qued as a DPS, VR3 for the daily... 3 and 1/2 hours later I got in to a group.

    My brother a DPS VR2 also qued at the same time for the same daily but different faction (not that it should matter)... he got in group in 15 mins.

    Next day same thing happened but I was in que for 6 hours and never got a group and he was in a group in less then 30mins...

    My only thought is I have the stupid friends list bug where mines always blank and its effecting my group times.. though your issue is on the PS4 and Im on the Xbox not sure if that bug is on the PS4 as welll.. but something is not right with there LFG system.

    Yeah the grouping system is horrible, best bet is to find yourself a guild and do dungeons with them.

    DPS have always outnumbered tanks and healers. Been rough forever, especially without chat. But coming soon we will have chat boxes which should help some.

    Best bet will still be to find a guild though. Good Luck!

    ya but when 2 dps only 1 level apart both que for the same dungeon at the sam time and one person is in que 3+ hours and the other is only in que for 30 mins.. there is a issue out side of the dps out number tanks and healer argument.
