Met 3 idiots today in normal dungeon

You don't need a tank in normal dungeon. In fact, you don't need it in most veteran dungeons either.

Most of the normal dungeons are soloable. So lot of dps and good healer is all you need in normal mode.

PUGs = a roll of the dice. Expect chances of fully kitted cp600+, noncp that literally started yesterday, and everything inbetween. Also anywhere from 'moron' to 'genius'.

It's true - you don't need a tank for normals (DLC dungeons it's still a good idea). Most vets you don't really either, but if you let the tank group up the mobs goes even faster.

My biggest peeve is people who queue for dungeons and don't want a tank... yet don't have a DPS add tank to their role. So I get matched and then gripe that my DPS is low and I can't heal. I'm a tank - even if I change a set, my CP isn't set for damage so no, I'm not going to pull 25k.

Quite normal.

The lesson you should learn is never queue for normal dungeons

Do one random normal on each level character each day, during the 2xp event you get 2-3 levels and skill point from quest.
grind dolmens or other mob while queued.

There seems to be a lot of people in this thread that are completely missing the OPs point.

This has nothing to do with the skill level of the players in question and wether or not a tank is needed in normal dungeons.

Posts such as these in this thread should be ignored.

I am never fond of these types of posts.

This is an MMO. Players in all levels of experience (or no experience) are enjoying this world. Instead of complaining, consider offering your wealth of experience...and gently teach.

Personally, I would love to see an option for players that tells others what level of group they are interested in, such as:

Elitist
Experienced
Novice
Just for fun

Now back to chasing flutterbyes.

Generally if the group can beat the dungeon I don't care about the comp. I often queue my DPS as a tank (with friends) so we can queue into and clear faster.
I have done this sometimes with random groups where I take my DPS as a tank and someone else is a healer, however we let people know there will be no "tank" and how the content works in that way.

If it ever comes up a group can't do the dungeon when I random queue (as the correct role) then I just wait for the disband or respectfully leave.

The point of the thread is specifically how 3 players were too moronic to know what roles they should have queued as to guarantee a 3 dps + 1 healer composition via group finder.

They had 2 dps and a healer. They wanted the pug 4th to be dps. Healer queues as tank/healer(both selected) and the system then looks to fill the group with either a tank or a healer as it thinks that the player who chose both roles can fill either. The system ends up finding the OP as a healer and places him/her in the group thus screwing things up as the player that chose both tank and healer is actually only REALLY a healer. So they end up with 2dps and 2 healers.

What they SHOULD have done was very simple. One of the dps queues as tank. Plain and simple. The healer queues as healer and the other dps queues as dps. Then the system ackowleges a tank and healer are in the group and will search for a 4th dps. Problem solved.

OP is correct, they were complete idiots who tried to circumvent the need for a tank via the GFand shot themselves in the foot and blamed the OP for their ineptitude.

*You're.

Normal dungeons can be completed with light attack spam + 1 skill from the dps.

They're made to be completeable by any player. If you are in a group with people arguing about roles for a normal dungeon, I would say it is maybe worth it to leave.
