    Another update: We're actively trying a few different solutions, and this may cause you to get kicked out of the queue.

    I assume we should ready ourselves for extra maintenance at the least convenient time?

    I solo queued six times. The four tanks got groups instantly and the two dps took about 20 minutes.

    Getting closer to missing out on my 3 event tickets for the day on EU. *Sighs*

    *Edit* Was finally able to get my tickets by standing in front of one of the daily dungeons. Was able to group with two other people, so we trio'd it without using Group Finder. At least we got our tickets (but no boxes, of course, since it wasn't through Group Finder).

    With all due respect, but seriously? You're investigating now? There has been a thread about this in the bug forum for PC EU for months, even a patch was announced:

    https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/431731/group-finder-is-broken/p1

    PC EU
    Just to update everyone, we're planning to publish the fix for this issue in our next incremental patch on Monday.

    Afterwards ppl were still telling you it didnt work, and you didnt read your own bug forums before starting an event that's completely based on something the community has been telling you does not work.

    So how exactly did this come as a surprise?

    I'm not one to get unnerved easily in forums, but this is just extreme, the issue has been one last year, then during the last months again, and it just keeps getting ignored.

    Got an invite to do a dungeon with a group of 4 and got the 3 tickets and mysterious box afterwards, so no need to do it with the Dungeon Finder. I'm on EU server.
    No you didn't, considering it comes attached to the RDF mail at the end.

    Yes I got it at the end in a mail, dungeon award bonus.
    I waited forever with the dingeon finder, stopped that. Asked if someone needed help in a dungeon, got an invite, played all the way through and got the 3 tickets and a mail with the mysterious box. Some crafting motif in it.

    Another update: We're actively trying a few different solutions, and this may cause you to get kicked out of the queue.

    But solution is so simple - this is Undaunted event, event of people who join together to deal with dangerous monsters - i.e. guildmates, friends, not a groups of random people who will queue as tanks on all their chars to get more lootboxes. Or for people who stubborn enough to complete dungeons solo, i.e. who like to challenge daedra face-to-face etc - from lore side. T

    So just connect lootboxes to pledges, maybe to pledge from one leader, Maj for example. Load on finder will be lower, so those people who don't play in guilds or not used to clear dungeons solo will have much better chances to participate through GF.

    And how does that help people who are lower than 45 who cant do pledges?

    Ok. Let's suffer all together, it always better when everyone is poor cause some players purposefully avoid reaching baseline cp160 game level and prefer to stick to low-levels where they are buffed and blessed by game mechanics of tamriel unlimited.

    No disrespect, but what a load of tosh, ive just started on PC, coming from console, im levelling as fast i can without power levelling, i am at 42 currently so i would miss out because i have a real life, a job, family etc because i cant sit there all day everyday levelling a toon?

    <-The corner is there, go sit in it and give your head a shake.

    Lol, really. I don't want to shock you, but 95% of people have real life, job, family etc. And leveling one char to lvl45 with quests and without any knowledge it's 50 hours max. Then you should ask why you can't use group finder before lvl10, just from lvl1 directly from coldharbour prison, why somebody who just created account can't join celebration?

    You have to do something with this ASAP. Either fix this problem or cancel the event or make mysterious box a reward for daily in one of the vanilla zones.. I know many people who have bought character slots exclusively for this event and you have no idea how many loyal customers you have lost today. In fact this issue has been known for over a year, but people naively belived that you are professionals....

    You don't need dungeon finder to get the three tickets, you can solo a simple dungeon and still get the tickets. You will need to use dungeon finder to get the new reward box.

    Not working .Just got in as DD after 5 min wait. Finished Volanfell (which was also a pledge...so what?) and returned to Glirion, got the pledge reward so definitely finished the dungeon and killed final boss but.....no "mystery box" or feathers.

    You don't get feathers that way. You should have gotten 3 event tickets added as currency. Check there to see if they dropped from the final boss in volanfell. If you did a random dungeon less than 20 hours ago, you won't get the mystery box either. It's tied to reward mail for the daily random dungeon.

    If none of that applies, then gratz. You've got bugs.

    Edit: I was too slow, but still check for the currency.

    what a surprise, another group finder event, and the finder isn't working. But did anyone expect it to?

    Yes. I expect it too. This is not private server game with 12 year olds running it. I expect a company like Zenimax who earns alot from this game to have these things working. People pay monthly subs and crowns on top. This is business. Everyone playing this game is the same as everyone buying a pair of shoe. Would you leave the store with only 1 shoe having lashes?
    Of yourse you would not. But that is what ESO is most of the time. We pay them to give us this buggy mess. This is not new content. The Group finder exists since 2014. And always had problems. What is ZoS doing with the money we give them..
    FIX YOUR STUFF ZOS. That is what we pay you for..

    So yes. We all Should expect things to work.

    End of rant.

    You really are deluded, why should someone who pays to play the game, as much as next the player, be left out of an event because they arent at the pledge level? Go give your head that shake..

    And yes it is shocking, that you think 95% of people have a job be it people who play the game or in the world totally, because here is some information for you, In the uk alone 4.2% of the population isnt in work, statistic by the national labour market. Granted they will have family, but the fact there out of work gives them time to do more things(after looking for a job, thats presuming that every unemployed person looks for a job, which they dont) like levelling in ESO.

    The reason a player cant do dungeons until a certain point is because you need unlocked skills to do things, do you play the game?? or just troll?

    It has nothing to do with the population logged in because it affects full groups aswell. If overpopulation was the main problem then those full groups would be teleported in a dungeon instantly. I guess it's a ''can't place those groups in the instances'' problem, not a ''can't form groups'' issue.

    Load is one of the main issues, though. If there's too many people queuing (it absolutely doesn't matter whether they're full groups or not), the DF breaks down. Yes, it's probably - at least partly - an issue of putting groups into instances, but that issue is somehow caused by overpopulation. Why - no idea, ask ZOS. Or rather, don't ask them, they obviously have no clue either. :D

    It worked now - well past 1 am CET. It's the same every weekend - at peak time, the DF tends to give up. Once rush hour is over, it starts working again.

    Feathers don't drop or get rewarded for completing a dungeon, you buy them with event tickets which drop from the last boss of the dungeon...

    I just tried on 4 different chars. 2 chars were fine and i was able to do the dungeon (2 person premade). The other 2 are bugged solo or 2 person premade.
