The problem right now is it is very difficult to login to the game. If you can get queued up to login, you are golden - but during high traffic times that is difficult.
I'm on PC and run a simple AutoHotKey script to press the Zero key every half second to attempt to log-in.

Granted that all fails if it fails to find your server pool, but it worked for me a few times while I'd go take a shower. They're going to have a long maintenance on Tues/Weds that will hopefully fix a lot of this as well as start booting AFK players. My IRL friends went to JP servers but even they are having problems logging now. Hope they offer server transfer as soon as they get things under control.

Yeah, the Duty finder is terrible for DPS classes. I'd say if you need to do dungeons for story, just shout for a party as DPS. Early on you can get away with an Arcanist to serve as a Healer and/or tank. If you want to farm dungeons, definitely level a tank/healer class. And no matter what class you are, farming fates is the best exp gainer...and don't forget to do your hunt log.
