✭Falkreath holdHands down the most time consuming dungeon ever, any new person leaning the last boss mechanics and to dance perfectly need at least 400 deaths and 5 hours, so pugging it becomes a nightmare, if you got the patience.
Seriously don't pug vet DLC dungeons.

✭✭✭Bloodroot forgeFor me its Bloodroot, lots to take care of as a tank during the trash pulls with lots of elites, and the last boss is a fricking RNG fest. WILL YOU WIN? ITS UP TO RNG! Fricking lava pool's spawn in completely random places. Sometimes they box you in, others they spawn super far away and never touch you.9 -

Hard mode? If not hard mode the pool once activated will disperse lava and the adds, it's so easy, did it first try without anyone dying on vet.Pc na0 -

✭MazzatunDon't have lizard or HotR DLC, but I did manage to do a run in Mazzatun during the free ESO+ trial. Therefore I have to say Ruins of Mazzatun because we all know IC dungeons are a walk on cake.0 -

In Hardmode you can't make the lava disappear. And yes I meant Hardmode.2 -

I wouldn't even want to do DLC dungeons with friends or guildies. They are not fun or great in the slightest. Especially the Horns of the reach ones, those are the ones that finally got me to cancel.

To each their own I guess, even through some of the RNG BS its still some really fun dungeons in my opinion. Love all the DLC dungeons with exception of ICP cause its too damn long, I mean its Speed run timer is longer than that of TRIALS.....2 -

An benefit with an new dungeon is that none know tactic.
And nothing I would pug but you can select who dungeons you will run for the random bonus run an normal.Grinding just make you go in circles.
Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.1 -

These are some of the most fun dungeons for me. Wiping until you learn the mechanics is what gaming is about.
If that isn't your cup of tea though, there is always normal mode.2 -

✭Serious? Vet fh shows it's the easiest in the poll?

Not even an hour. He's really easy. Just mechanic stacking can be a beatch, but if he does just vigor/shield and roll dodge.
vFH is easy imo. Then again I won't be elitist as we all find some things harder than other things; everyone is different.Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.3 -

I find it easy too, and doesn't die, but when pugging, everyone is 1st time playing, so you have to die for their learning.
And that takes hours for them to finally get it, in fact I haven't met a group that actually get it.Pc na0 -

✭✭✭Bloodroot forgeI like the fact that both of the 2 that shows as hardest are the ones with HMs being heavily influenced by RNG, the Lava on Bloodroot, and who gets the statue thing in Mazzatun.
@ZOS_Finn Can we please move away from RNG based Boss mechanics, especially on HMs. I mean in Regular veteran both of those fights are really easy and not much problem at all. But the extra mechanics, or removal of them in some cases, where its heavily based on RNG should not be what we should add in future content.8 -
subtlezeroub17_ESO✭✭✭✭Honestly, I think vCoA2 should replace WGT. That dungeon can kiss my ass.
WGT has never been an issue.1 -

I think the hardest one as a healer is WGT. Almost all of the boss fights have the group spread out all over the place running around and its almost impossible to position your heals on the group. Planar Inhibitor when as a healer its your turn to close portals, Adjucator when someone get stuck in the cell burning to death, Molag Kena, the group always gets split up on these fights.Edited by Myyth on September 3, 2017 5:16PM1 -

Pugging often makes everything unnecessarily difficult.

✭✭✭✭✭OtherSpindelclutch 1 last boss, most *** one-shot mechanic in the game xD
I think ppl vote vFH and vBF the hardest since they´re new, not because they are actually "harder"0 -
Hridh✭✭Bloodroot forgeA nice anti-noob wall is also Tempest Island boss, funnily enough, but experiences first hand from pugging daily randoms or pledges... I mean, how hard can it be to roll out and BACK In? but no, pug healers and DD just get 1 shooted for being max range. Maybe i shoudnt show off by just soaking her point blank AOE...
I'll add, just coming out of completing Falkreath HM, that it is though less continual hectic than BF, if the DPS is good enough (which you need for last 20%), you can get screwed by stacking mechanics... like come on, how can I hide behind a pillar when all the fat atronachs are stacked there, and rolling through them would bring me too far?
