Suggestion regarding queues

Private stays as is.

Public - removes requirements and just fills with whatever is in the public queue.

Optimizer - works as public currently works. Will pull from public queue if requirements are met. (Group needs dc, will grab dc from Optimizer or public queue)

Simple solution to a problem that has made pug tiamat/demo next to impossible.

Or, as many have mentioned before, don't solo queue.

PUGs are usually a failure. Why suggesting something that was intended to improve PUGs? That doesn't fix anything at all.

Yesterday I defeated Tiamat twice, and the groups were a mix of ilvls; which I think is a really good thing cause it helped those with low ilvls pull this off. And this is what we actually need: high geared people making groups where they take in low geared players to help them advance.

I pug all the time and more often than not it doesn't end in failure. Or I should say, it used to not end in failure.

The new queue system does make it much harder for people to pug. It takes too long to queue up since the queue system has specific class requirements.

I'm in a guild so I can queue up with guildies when I want so not a huge issue for me. I do feel bad for people not in a guild because this new system just does not have them in mind at all.

I don't see why making suggestions that could improve pugging is a bad thing. If you don't pug it shouldn't be an issue to you.

Rarely does queueing result in failure. You might not score as high add you'd like, but it takes a lot (or lag/dc) to actually fail entirely. From what I have seen, more common than failing is not getting in. And I pug quite a bit, as our guild is still small. Isn't always someone on doing what I am trying to do. Not to mention, I've seen quite a few groups running bubble + gf instead of bubble + dc, something that currently requires private queues for most things. All I'm trying to suggest is that if a pair of clerics want to queue up together without having to hire the rest of their team, that should be an option.

I think the problem is actually the fact that every dungeon requires a DC and no one wants to make a DC. If they want to solve the queue issue for good they will need to create dungeons that can be played with any classes configuration. Until then we will continue to be loaded into a guaranteed loss or doomed to sit around waiting for the one DC that is on to queue.

Some paragon paths are pointless because of new queue system. A dps GF can't queue with a bubble pally because both are "tanks". Please fix this.
