    I think the problems is with the cool down time they introduced in the game for dungeons.

    If you leave a group and and try to queue again you have to wait 15min before you can join again.

    And I usually leave group if I see people with all 3 roles ticked thinking they can dps tank and heal -_- and I'm sure many other people leave groups for the same reasons

    Just started leveling a new alt which is something I do fairly regularly.

    Before the DB release, group finder for the 9 first dungeons has been working pretty well for the past few months.

    Now I'm leveling a healer and queuing as healer + DPS and I'm not getting a group in more than one hour in the queue... during NA prime time.

    I do believe they broke something.

    personal i don't think anything has gone wrong with the group finder, i think it has more to do with the elite behaviour now with people on cp points, i think they just are not queuing anymore

    Cant find a damn group at all.

    Have to agree here.
    Probably been queued a total of 15 hours or so since DB release. No group yet. I even gave up trying to specifically get the dailys and just went random. No joy.

    It is a good thing i am really enjoying murdering random people.

    People with pre-built groups are having problems getting into dungeons. There is a problem.

    I also seriously doubt that entirety of the player base is no longer running dungeons. Myself and many others have spent hours upon hours waiting for dungeons with the most high demand roles (tanks and healers) and have not made it in. The group finder just isn't working properly, and it very likely has something to do with the new finder changes.

    Behavior continued last night as well. 3 nights in a row the random dungeon finder refused to group myself and my RL tank friend.

    Gonna put a huge stink on our normal routine this weekend.
  • richardjameshillb16_ESO
    Same here no group (as Healer) in 3 days,

    Also when trying to join as a group of 4 I get the "you don't have the DLC error

    Kind of a major problem It need more than just "looking at"

    How come there are still "random veteran dungeon" queue, by the way, if there is no longer a veteran level? Could something have slid by someone's attention there, causing an incompatibility with queues?

    I've gotten into one dungeon since launch. The rest of the time has been waiting in a queue.

    The "veteran dungeons" are still a separate instance with different quests/bosses/difficulty. Now the check would be that you have to be level 50 to access them, rather than being vet 1. So no, that's not the issue.

    As others have stated, queuing up for a random dungeon does not put you in a group even if you know there are complementary players out there looking too. Forming a group and then queuing will put you in a dungeon almost instantly, with the exception of the DLC bug. If you have a person in the group that does not have IC, they need to be leader so that the group finder excludes those dungeons from the "random" list.

    Food for thought: the queue is instant with 4 people. Like press the button-DING

    Maybe they broke it fixing group of 4 time?

    Someone in zone chat was saying they had a group of four and they couldn't get int. But if they dodged a dungeon and were on the 15 minute penalty then that would explain it. Maybe they didn't know about the changes?

    At any rate, group finder is definitely broken. Haven't been able to get into group since the patch, regardless of queueing and requeueing for hours. And that's as a tank.

    Yeah i can't imagine this can be seen as some small issue... the dungeon finder is solely responsible for a significant amount of content being run every day, and though i realize it can be circumvented by putting together groups the old fashioned way, a ton of people are certainly not going to, and will do other things in game, or just play something else.

    No sir, I don't like it.

    It worked perfectly the first day of the dlc. Very quick queues even as dps (maybe it was all the people rerolling DKs). And then the next day all of a sudden everyone went elitist? Im not buying it.

    They dont delay releases to fix bugs. Seems its company policy.

    We're in luck! We've found the issue and are testing a fix.

    @NewBlacksmurf - This will be fixed for the Dark Brotherhood console patch since it's hotfixable.

    Don't suppose that fix is going to solve the problem with the Group Finder forming large groups also? Waited over two hours for a group to form and ended up getting this
    qs1s9l.jpg
    Now since we can't all get into the dungeon I decided to drop out (and that's on me I know). Still, it's a bit much that after waiting all that time I end up getting an inappropriately sized group and a 15 minute penalty. I mean talk about double whammy... :s

    So someone has to ask....

    Since it's hotfixable does that mean it's getting hotfixed.... or at least in Monday's incremental? o:)

    I'd consider this worthy of a hot fix, especially seeing how this will be the first weekend after a DLC. There's going to be a lot of people on, and I'm sure more than handful are going to wonder why they can't run pug dungeons.
