In patch 4.1 we'll be introducing Dungeon Finder: Call to Arms, a new system intended to lower queue times. Call to Arms will automatically detect which class role is currently the least represented in the queue, and offer them additional rewards for entering the Dungeon Finder queue and completing a random level-85 Heroic dungeon. - Blizzard
First let me say wow, I wasn't expecting this to come in 4.1! It's the patch that keeps on growing. Seriously, when are they going to release this thing? I thought for sure that it would be out a few weeks ago. I thought that blizzard's new design philosophy was to have smaller little patches, but they keep adding things to this one to make it bigger! Anyway on to this controversial topic...
I can't believe people are complaining about this. This is a great idea by Blizzard in my opinion to help with DPS queue times. So lets think about who's complaining about it....
Tanks: Definitely not, they will have call to arms probably 90% of the time.
Healers: Maybe...Probably not a whole lot because every now and then they might be able to get some of these rewards. Even if they don't our 5-10 minute queue time should be down to almost nothing.
DPS: This seems to be where all the QQ'ing takes place. But why?
This is designed to HELP DPS! If blizzard gave these rewards to everyone, then that would defeat the point of the rewards as all roles would queue more often. Do people not want shorter queue times? Blizzard can't push an easy button and make it happen. This is entirely a player problem, and short of them hiring tanks to go do 5 mans or turning the game upside down, they can't solve this problem.
Also, any rewards the call to arms people get can be acquired elsewhere, they aren't getting anything unique! As a healer main with some dps alt's I love this change even though I will probably never see the rewards myself. It might even encourage me to try to tank on one of my alts, which is what the system is designed to do! I hope the player-base doesn't QQ enough where blizzard does a 180 on this change because it will really help the game I believe.
