Dead VR zones.

Winterstrife

With the release of Craglorn, it seems that the other VR zones mainly VR5 onwards are becoming ghost zone, I can hardly manage to find anyone around or even crap a small group up to clear some WB/Dungeons/Dolmens/Public Dungeons.

Some of you might say solo it, but when a WB hits you for 1k dmg every time she casts a spell (looking at you Lady Solace in Grahtwood ) its impossible.

Any thoughts?

Wait for primetime hours.

VR content is still not where the majority of players are, but I had no problem finding WB/Dolmen groups in all the VR zones. It took a little longer if I was searching for people in the morning, but during regular primetime hours, there's always a group or two running those.

Hey, just wait til you see the Storm Atronach WB in Greenshade who hits for 3k a hit!=D ...well, at least as vet 8 he does, unsure for you.

On topic...there's about 100500 threads more or less about it - people don't like vet, people are fed up with vet trash, people find it a boring grind, people don't want to do other faction's story, people find it unrewarding...lots of reasons, really. SO MANY things that could and should have been done better and not even any real response.

It's sad, really. Well, on the bright side, pretty much everyone who still is alive and kicking in vet 6+ is like godly - haven't seen a single bad player out there, they/we all kick ass now. Unfortunately, even at best times "we" is only presented by like 10 people a zone, and it gets steadily worse with each subsequent zone. I had to duo an anchor a few days ago because there were no people...on the bright side, again, we made it:)

Unfortunately, there's like nothing you can do about it. Well, you can try forming/joining a guild to be able to call for help to your guildmates, I guess, but then again how many of those will be online and alive in vet 5+ zones? Oh, and keep an eye out for zone chat. Ever so rarely someone will actually pop up there trying to form a group/needing help, don't miss those rare occasions. Even 2 people is a lot better than 1 and perfectly enough for most of the content.

To be honest, I think it get less and less crowded for every day that goes by regardless of where really.

I've posted, with no response, for the VR zones to be unphased (or single phased). They might already be this way, but I have a hard time thinking only 2 to 3 people are in the VR zones. I find more VR characters in Coldharbour than I see in a VR zone (outside Craglorn).

This is also now become hard to do even at primetime, plus not everyones primetime is the same.

Yup, usually this is the only way now. At times if you get 3 your lucky and maybe can struggle thru some VR 5+ encounters.

This is not a new. There are tons of threads about this. Some have their heads in the sand about it but the crux of the issue is that VR difficulty is too high and the reward is too low so people are just grinding mobs in Craglorn (or have quit).

I managed to eek my way through the vet zones but that was weeks ago. It was bad enough then so I can imagine it's only gotten worse. My advice is to just skip WB/public dungeons/dolmens until you see someone advertising for a zone group to complete them (or try to put one together yourself). Keep paying attention to zone chat for others advertising for help (even if it's something you did already) and try to join forces with any others that might be there.

Outside of that..you can always just head to Craglorn like everyone else.

Complete all the solo dungekuns and main questline to v10. This will get u to v7.Or so. Join trade guilds at least 4. Spam those before a wb and dolmen run in a zone . Do that and you should have access to 150 or so guildies as well as zone. You will get there this way. Also craiglorn has good xp in group content that is doable at v7
