WotLK RDF queue prioritize system bugged?

[Prawl]

Hi,

I'm playing on Frostmourne and i've noticed that if a tank or a healer leaves a dungeon, and the rest of the group puts themselves in the queue again, you'll never get a replacement. If a dps leaves it's no problem, you will get a replacement, but if a tank or a healer leaves, there's no chance. It's not just that they are harder to find, it's like they cant join an already started instance. So, if any of those leave, you have to vote kick one and then the rest can leave without getting deserter. Would really like to see a fix for this, prioritize system, or what it is.

Also, when queueing alone as a tank, its almost always instant queue, but if you invite lets say a dps and let him queue with you, the timer is often more then 10 minutes. Something is scuffed here aswell.

Thanks,
Sqn

It is because they are harder to find. Timer with a DPS in party is increased because when searching for a group you search for one with 2 DPS and a healer instead of usual 3 DPS 1 healer since there's too many DPS queing.
Nothing is wrong with prioritization system.

It doesn’t work like that. If I am searching as a tank with one dps in my group, people who are solo queuing, like a healer, should be able to get into that queue right away. Its not like the system is searching only for another group, its searching for people solo queueing aswell, so that theory does not make sense.

And, if you say that there’s nothing wrong with the queue for a tank/heal replacement - you never tried it. Go ahead, try it out. I’ve been testning it and been sittning in queues for over an hour. Nothing.

It's called a queue and I'm 98% sure it works just like the queue works. You get put in the back of the queue once you leave and join.
When joining the queue it checks from the front if a group requires your role.
So now, you have 500 groups with 3D+H, 500 with 3D and others with <3 D.
Joining as a tank you get he first group that's been waiting the longest.
Joining as a tank + Damage you fall down through the groups missing a tank and those missing just tank and a healer (since they have 3D) and wait fall down bellow groups with 3D waiting.

So now, your group that's got everything except a tank has fallen back to the back of the queue once you've left and joined again. No saving spots, no line cutters.
