I play a druid so when I queue for the new LFG I always queue as healer/tank/dps figuring this will get me a group the fastest. And it does. If I just queue as dps or healer is often takes 10 minutes to find a group. If I queue as tank (or as healer/tank/dps) I always end up in a group within seconds (as the tank). Has anyone else noticed this inbalance.
I think the reason for this problem is pretty simple. Every 25 man uses 7-8 healers and only 2-3 tanks. But in 5 mans you need an equal number. The result is that there are generally 3 times as many healers as tanks which causes a buffer problem where every group is LF tank.
I'm really not sure how blizzard could fix this problem, besides requiring more off tanks in raids. Any ideas?
