Is…. Is this a real problem? Do you even know if it’s the same person missing the queue over and over?
Look, I mean it’s annoying, but sometimes I sit down for a queue and then have to “use the facilities.” At that juncture, I have other things going on. You’re also put up higher in the queue, so eh. Either deal with it or, I dunno, play with other people you know?
How do you know if they are? And why does it matter? You’re put back at the front of the queue.
And that isn’t going to be the same person who missed the queue.
Thats just humanity. The vast majority of people want to feel dominant in some way. They’ll often tell themselves its only other people and use hyper-rationalizations, but the effect is the same. We always hear horror stories about fascist regimes and secret police but most of them only used their secret police to weaponize the people’s desire to rat on and control each other.
the change they need to make to these trivial holiday bosses is to not require a traditional 5 man. just turn them into 5 man scenarios, let 5 people of any role join and tune accordingly.
it’s stupid to make people wait for a traditional 5 man comp when you don’t need that comp to kill the boss.
A DPS missing ready check should not put you back in queue.
It wouldn’t be too hard to implement a button to pause the queue without losing your spot. It’s a design flaw.
Also, yeah, it’s almost never going to be the same person in your group finder, unless you’re grouped with them ahead of time. That’s silly to think otherwise.
Just a symptom of healer/tank drought, which is pretty much always lol.
Although, I guess if I think about it, during the peak of this game, queues for everyone were a lot shorter. More tanks and healers in circulation per dps.
Even I was playing a tank back in Wrath, and only put it down because I didn’t keep up with the PvE.
Tanks have to be the most knowledgeable and I was tired of being hassled to look up guides when I could just queue on my DPS that had never done it before, and not get questioned at all.
Now, it’s like 1 healer per 2.5 tanks, and 50-100 dps per healer lmao. Ratio.
Ehm… this already exists in the game
At times when I queue as a tank I am still in the dps mindset of “It’ll take forever” so I go off and do something like prep for dinner later and then come back and no queue, and on at least one occassion I managed to do this like … 2-3 times in a row by mistake and yah’
The timer exists, you cannot queue for another … 10-15 minutes IIRC
Last time this happened must have been back in BFA or something like that when I still did queued content but unless they removed it … what you are requesting is actually in the game already and been in the game for a long while at this point
Checks queue: average time in queue 27 min. Your time in queue: 9 minutes
Colon: Now is the time
Sits down.
Duh dah duh dahhhh!!!
Me: Really?
I thought this was about ready checks. It’s not.
It can be a problem, lets say you waited 15 min for a tank then someone finally signs up then a dps has fallen asleep and missed the pop then all of a sudden the tank is gone. But yea first world problems
