    The dungeon finder works pretty simple: You queue for 2 minutes. If it doesn't trigger within 2 minutes, requeue. Within 5 times you will find it will instantly get you into group all of a sudden.

    was this a wind up? Maybe that worked for you but it doesn't for me

    This works for me both on EU and NA. Every day, without fail.

    Can confirm, can't queue as a healer since sunday. Before that it worked almost instantly, right now it took 1 hour of waiting with no result for one of the tries and a couple of several minutes tries were unsuccessful either.

    Tried to queue the Random Normal Dungeon with a full group and... It went into queue and never started the dungeon.

    What is this garbage? Do patches like this even receive testing? I can't even queue as a tank anymore. I've tried the queue-for-2-minutes-and-requeue strategy and it does not work.

    My 4 person groups haven't had any issues for weeks now. We get right in. I guess different circumstances and locations, etc., cause different outcomes.

    Tank & Healer group having to wait max 2 mins which, for me, is fine.

    Queueing solo as a DD has been hardest, but still even in off hours longest wait has been 3-4 mins so i see improvement.

    have you queued today?

    so I had a weird experience. Was on one of my max CP characters queueing with a buddy that was on a ~35 toon. We waited for >45 minutes.

    I swapped to a lower level (~level 25) and we got immediate queue pops. In both cases, he was a healer, and I was a tank.

    Doesn't make sense.

    Solo DPS queue is 3-4 minutes?

    What the hell is this sorcery? At the best of times, a solo DPS queue is 15 minutes at best.
    3-4 minute queue is a load of hogwash. Either that, or you are not queuing solo at all.

    Since its such a small amount of time for your solo dps queue, I'd love to see a video of that wait time.

    One thing I noticed myself similar to this is that my queues went seriously downhill the moment my character hit lvl 45 and the DLC dungeons unlocked. Before this at lower levels it was usually pretty quick, even as DD solo queuing.

    Could it be that the somewhat broken system is collapsing hard when trying to determine how to match people based on what DLCs everyone have unlocked? 🤔

    Compared to other MMOs this game sure has a mess of people having access to different things in this regard due to the model chosen..

    Not calling you a liar, just asking you to show the rest of us your unusual good fortune.
    Should be unbelievably easy for you since you don't have very long to wait.

    Maybe. Today we tested it again... Even with someone tht was not max CP (~CP 70), we couldn't get a queue. Both the others of us were below 45. So could be tht.

    I'm having a pretty fab experience. I don't think I've waited long than 5 minutes and I've been on my DPS all night. My average has been about 3 minutes.

    I think out of about 20 runs I only had someone refuse the invite once. Otherwise it's been solid. Hurrah!

    I've had similar good experience in my 10+ runs yesterday. On another note, i see people posting that they wait in queue for 30-45 minutes??

    do what you like, but my friends and I never wait more that 10 minutes for any queue. If it doesnt pop by then we either switch up roles or requeue. None of us have the time to sit and wait for a dungeon queue like that. If 10mins+ then we go Craglorn, Reaper's, Grahtwood and ask for a random player in zone.

    Good experiance up until yesterday. PC EU.

    1 bg run started fast. 2 after maybe 5min after a restart of the que. 3rd took even longer. 4th gave up after 15min.

    Relogged with other char. Instant start. So there is some type of bug there.
    Soon cp1000

    Seems that every single patch server performance gets WORSE. Been disconnected multiple times today, keep getting "Error 304 already logged in" when trying to log back in, even get it if I log off and then try to log back in even HOURS later. This is obscene, there is absolutely no excuse for this.
    This creature called a songbird. What a devious creation! This winged nuisance erodes sanity with its incessant chirping. What a brilliant form of torture!
