Call to arms dungeon queues bugged?

So I queued up as tank as to get the “Crystal Satchel of Cooperation” from call to arms…
I was in queue for 17 minutes and it said average wait time 31 minutes…so I canceled
logged on to my monk and saw the new call to arms was healer so I queued up for that and accidentally queued as dps as well and got almost instant queue as dps. I canceled and queued only as healer then it said 8 minute wait time

I’m confused I thought call to arms meant there’s a demand for that spec yet both tank and dps call to arms had ridiculous queue times while dps was almost instant?

Yes. When it’s call to arms, more people of that role sign up, increasing the queue times for it. So basically, unless you queue right as the satchel becomes available, the queue can get pretty long. I think it’s exaggerated for tanks/healers because there’s only 1 per dungeon group, so spots fill up faster.

I see…
but I think I did queue up right away for the healer role…because there was no call to arms for healer when I was on my pally then I logged over to my monk and checked and there was a queue for healer…so I queued and got an 8 minute wait time…must have been like 10 seconds between logging…I guess in that 10 seconds a lot of people queued for heals?

Dunno.
I can’t imagine there are tons of heroic dungeons going anyway, so it wouldn’t take that many people signing up to throw things off. Or maybe something is just a little wonky about the LFG queue times. /shrug

yea I think something is likely messed up lol

I have NEVER seen the tank queue, especially when it’s call to arms, say 31 minute wait time

eh, used to happen to me pretty often a few expansions ago when I still bothered going for them. I’d usually just give it like 10 minutes and then go do something else instead.

I’ve gotten 5 instant ques and satchels as healer today. No issues.

On different characters ofc
