Suggestion: Trial Queues

I know many people may be opposed to this, but I personally think it is something of necessity.

We have queues for dungeons where we get PUGs, this makes it a lot quicker and easier to find a group for a dungeon [when it's not bugging out like hell]

I think we should have this for Trials too, I understand the opposition to this as people who are woefully unprepared may join, and trials require communication, so I think to combat this a level cap for normal and vet trials should be negotiated.

As I say, I understand the reasons against this, but it can be impossible and very draining to have to go to every zone and guild and advertise a trial trying to find someone, and it's even worse at later hours.

If anyone has anything they'd like to add to what could make a system like this work, feel free.

    I agree. It's so lame trying to get a group for it

    Is it really that hard? I mean I never really tried to pug because I mostly run with guildies, tho craglorn zone chat seems always busy.

    @Milvan As a Guildmaster and a member of Trials guilds, it still can be tiresome.

    People always want to do different trials, and at later hours it's worse.

    Craglorn zone chat usually advertises for Craglorn trials, I've rarely picked up many people for nAS or nHoF and such

    @magictucktuck I think that would work very well.

    I'd still want a minimum of CP160 at the very least for normal trials, and I agree that vet trials would be harder than they already are if people weren't chosen on a by-person basis

    Normal... Maybe.
    Vet... Thats not going to work. Well, maybe for Craglorn trials, if everyone in group knows the tactic (or is willing to listen). Oh and they would need to implement a mechanic that removes hardmode in Craglorn trials, because someone in a pug group might unknowingly break some orbs or statues... ;)
    For any vet DLC trials that would be just a waste of time imo. Well, maaaaybe non-hm vAS could work, but that would alsp require some coordination.

    I never see it and when I do I'll say I'll join but then can't finish the group.

    It's rediculous I just want to do them not spend hours finding people to do them

    How would vote kicking work? How many people would be needed to kick a DPS who keeps pulling the boss, etc.?

    I would imagine it would need to be the large majority, like an election... only a de-election
