How do you successfully queue for a dungeon? Before the system was completely replaced, queuing as a tank, healer or a group of two or more would get you a dungeon within a few minutes at most. Since then, it has varied, but seems particularly bad queuing as a group of 2-3, with healer + DPS and healer + tank what I have tried most often. It’s hard to know where the problem lies — maybe there are more queuing as healers for vet dungeons and I should switch to DPS? I wish I knew. Then last night I was grouped with a friend for a random normal for well over half an hour with no pop. That doesn’t seem like it could reflect who was queuing and for what content, does it?
I don’t mean for this to be a rant (although I do miss the old group finder!) but rather would like to know what other people have found is and is not successful so I can adapt and actually run dungeons when I want to and don’t have a full group (and I really do enjoy PUGging, even though like anyone I’ve had the occasional frustrating group, it’s all learning opportunities!).
Thank you!

✭✭✭✭✭Now this is purely anecdotal, but the problem of interminable queue times seems to happen most often when queuing for a random dungeon or for a pledge dungeon with a partial group (most times queuing as healer + DPS). Last night a friend and I queued for pledge dungeons plus City of Ash (for gear) and to my surprise, after a bit of a wait, CoA popped first. I did the pledges later on my own and didn’t encounter any problems queuing solo. 🤔0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Not enough tanks.
OP says they have even queued as a tank with a healer so this is not the case.
To OP, I have queued as a tank well before the GF was changed and had to wait in rare occasions.
Edit to clarify. I have queued as a tank with a healer and DPS and have had to wait before Zos updated the GF.Edited by idk on December 20, 2019 5:14AM1
