Fixing low level dugeon que

Maybe make it so low levels only get qued in with 50 < in nerfed dungeons. When they hit 50 they get grouped with 50 > only with cp in regular dungeons when blind queing. Keep veteran dungeons as is, maybe buff them. I am ready to stop queing altogether due to the ridiculous system in place now. When a reg dungeon takes forever to complete because the dps are too low level and the only high is a tank or healer, it sucks. Maybe I should join a guild? Problem with them is they seem to want donations. And yea, buff that.

Just a rant. I been queing as a 422 heal and keep getting people less than level 30 that don't know mechanics or have skill. I am far from great but damn.

    Main problem is that the DLC dungeons don't have level restrictions like the harder standard dungeons have.
    An level 10-15 has 50% chance of getting an DLC dungeon rater than Elden hollow or wayrest
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    At level 10 you have the three base dungeons (Fungal, Banished, and Spindle), and if you're a level 10 subscriber you have those plus the IC dungeons(2), Hist dungeons(2), and soon the two nordic dungeons. It's already weighed in favor of getting a substantially more difficult DLC dungeon if you queue as a level 10 subscriber, and next update it will be 50/50 with the tier two dungeons (15? 20? forget what level they 'unlock' for your random queue). It's absolutely bonkers and unpleasant, makes the random Normal almost unusable for most actually lower level players.
    If you quote someone, and intend for them to see what you have said, be sure to Mention them with @[insert name].

    Yes, but can you explain to me why WGT, ICP, ROM and COS are unlocked before Wayrest Sewers?

    And its so stupid, simply add an level 45-50 as minimum level.
    Once you are in to it remove the level restriction from pre formed group. You will not get it as random, and you can not queue solo but in group you can enter.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.

    No where in the OP does it mention DLC dungeons. And yes I've run ICP with lvl 14s. and even WGT a lvl 19 wearing lvl 10 gear who leveled in the middle and was thus wearing gear at half effectiveness. I've come in on CoS groups stuck at Dranos Velandor and had to pass out food, repair kits and even soul gems because they didn't have any (or even more ridiculous was the person who was "saving" them).

    If you aren't prepared for a truly Random pug, make your group from zone chat.

    There is no 'too low dps' for the first 6 dungeons, only for DLC dungeons.

    You've run ICP with low levels, congratulations, but that does not make things logical. you mentioned you gave them food, repair and soul gems. If it was beginner dungeons, these things are mostly not needed even for low level new players. The DLC dungeons just have a too steep learning curve. The decision that mixing level 10 dungeons and DLC dungeons are BAD GAME DESIGN AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED.

    WOW KEWL YOU DID???

    No reason the DLC dungeons should be an option for low level inexperienced people.
    I'm a PVE roleplayer concerned about my vampires stage 4 skin tone and keep getting load screens so I came here to distract people from major issues with a rant thread about my characters cosmetic appearance.

    Until such time as Zos changes it, you have to accept the reality as it is and figure out a way to reduce your aggravation.

    To reduce your aggravation, change to a different method of grouping: form group from zone chat.

    Isnt it one of the function for the forum? Discuss potential problems and provide insight for the developers? If you want to accept everything wrong the developers feed you, then by all means.

    Forming group from zone chat is an option, but that does not change the fact that grouping tool is badly designed.

    Lol every time Zos tries to "upgrade" the features on the group finder they break it. Even the simplest function "forming a group" is broken half the time and you believe they are going to start locking the dungeons that come from the PAID dlc? To Zos, these aren't noobs, these are customers who have purchased the optional DLC/optional membership. they aren't about to lock money spenders out of content to appease any of us.
