How to get into a Random Group faster with a DPS
Submitted by EpikPhailure on Fri, 01/08/2010 - 6:06am
Tanks are the most demanded role for dungeons. Healers are often a close second, but what about DPS? DPS are the most played role in the game, so the wait time for the new looking for group can be much, much longer if you only check the DPS role in LFG finder. However I have discovered a small cheat to get you in a group faster.
Group with a tank (and/or heals) before you enter the queue, of course the tank and heals will have to queue with you. As soon as your group is ready, have the tank (and healer if they are along) not accept the run, if they don’t want to go with you. Your group will fail to form, but you will be put at the front of the list for the next run.
I tested this out the other day with my hunter as DPS.
1st queue: DPS, by myself, took 16 minutes to get a group.
2nd queue: DPS with Tank, group was formed in less than 30 seconds, Tank canceled, my group was formed two minutes later.
3rd queue: DPS, by myself again, 20 minutes before my group was formed.
4th Queue: DPS, with Tank and Heals, group was formed in two minutes, then Tank and Heals canceled, my group was formed four minutes later.
5th Queue, DPS, by myself, 18 minutes before my group was formed.
6th Queue, DPS with Heals, group was formed in eight minutes, after heals canceled my group was formed in two minutes later.
Of course it is only a matter of time before Blizzard fixes this, but use it now, while you can.- EpikPhailure's blog
