Random Dungeon Queues Take Too Long

#1 - Jan. 14, 2011, 12:59 p.m.

In WotLK, at its peak, or when new content was released, new dungeons etc, I only had to wait 5-7 min to find a random group, sometimes, very rarely it took 15min but I could run lots of instances.

So far in Cataclysm, I wait at the very least 40min.

Is there some sort of technical problem which is causing this? If not, why am I having to wait so long?

One thing that's helped me is to group with a few friends first, especially if they're tanks or -- if I'm not healing myself -- healers. The traditional method of creating groups is always available.

The thing that helped me was marrying our MT.

Now she's our main healer, with tanking offspec, ALWAYS an instant queue, and all the extra perks irl are nice too ;)

Priceless! It's always great to hear things like this. Congratulations!

Uh, once you've grouped with 5 people you can queue for a random together, no?

Yep.

Edit: Ahh, I see what I did wrong ;-) I was still thinking of a previous thread! I'll edit it.
