also please fix the 3 exp per mob killed in dungeon it needs to be brought up closer to outside outdoor exp and maybe like 70-80 percent per mob compared to full exp outside.

    They NEED to fix this. Dungeons is something I love... no, this doesn't ruin the entire experience but it does make it a lot worse. So basicly I either have to choose between being a troll myself and take all the loot which I hate being, or don't get good loot at all just maybe if i'm lucky with the bosses I kill... which I barely get any experience from at all... zenimax why

    To be honest, propably the only solution is playing with people you trust.

    This guy is a moron. If you want to loot chests for gear, there are far better places to do such than a dungeon.

    You do dungeons for the specific loot that drops off of bosses, specifically jewelry and weapons (you'll notice most of dungeons don't drop armor). Not for the chests.

    If that's the case, then these dungeons aren't worth the effort. I've done two different ones, killed a total of ten bosses, and I've gotten one non white leveled item from a boss. Next to no gold, one soul gem, and a white item or two off of each boss.

    Generally speaking the first 16 dungeons are, essentially there, to rank up your Undaunted line. For example around unique dungeon 13 (single runs only) you gain Undaunted 3 which gives tanks Inner Rage which is pretty boss for tanking later on (since now your taunt is magicka based allowing you to dedicate your stamina to blocking entirely and never lose aggro because you blocked a big attack when Puncture wears off). They are also handy for skill points, but not really worth re-running as the XP is terrible in them. Whatever loot you get, you get.

    VR5 dungeons aren't bad, but the difficulty isn't that much lower than VR10 dungeons and truth be told there's a few encounters in them that are just a huge pain in the ass to deal with till VR10 anyways. When you could double enchant the jewelry they were boss, but now it's pretty much one and done.

    The real good stuff comes out of Veteran Rank 10 dungeons:

    1. Weapons that drop from dungeons, such as the VR10 purples off major bosses, are the best weapons in the game currently damage wise. They can also be upgraded to Legendary making them the best weapons in the game even over Crafted weapons.

    2. Some of the sets that drop off major bosses are also pretty amazing if not bugged currently. For example Savior's 5 piece bonus is a 25% stamina regen increase for your group. There are also some weapon sets that are pretty decent as well, including Volendrung.

    These are the major reasons to do the extremely limited dungeon content, over and over, trying to find the set pieces and the good weapons till you got all the ones you want. The BOP sets are pretty RNG and trying to get 5 pieces would take a very long time (especially cause they're BOP).

    Half that video the guy *** about chest loot but truth is there's any number of vastly superior places to farm chests in this game. In fact once you hit Veteran content, the dungeons you are doing have chests in them that scale to the original dungeon level (so Spindle drops level 14 chest loot).

    I really don't think that's the point. If I go into a dungeon, regardless of level. I expect a level playing field. I don't expect to have an environment that promotes troll behavior. Even if we forget about the chest and say, "hey, we're having to 3 man this dungeon because this guy is being a scrub" that's a problem in itself.

    Dungeons are normally a pretty big part of MMOs, to make it a troll paradise opens the doors to give a lot of people a sour taste for this game. I remember people complaining about this during the beta tests, and si it's not a new problem. Just proving to be the problem people predicted.

    Yes but some players in group may get items they cant use, so you need roll system and need before greed system the group leader can toggle on like other MMO's!

    If you are talking about BOP items then i'll agree with you. For BOE items, like the ones we are getting now, ins't really a bad thing getting items you can't use if the game has a good market where you can trade them, which, in my honest opinion isn't the case.
