Group Dungeon's turned Public (Idea)

✭✭✭
-Through the Undaunted (Maybe)
-Daily & randomly selected (like Pledges)
-Turn group dungeons into public dungeons for a day, a weekend, or an event
-Adds replay value, something different to do, simple content to add
-Gives -non-elitist players- the chance to get that awesome gear they want, but maybe can't get

-Idea origin:
It took maybe a month to get my heavy Zaan helm due to pugs lack of (everything)
More often than not people left the group before finishing the dungeon due to low DPS, or someone not knowing the mecs

    That's a horrible idea. Imagine scores of uncoordinated people rampaging through an undaunted dungeon, waiting for bosses to spawn (out of sequence) and people running circuits to farm gear. Dungeons are designed for instanced group play, they should stay that way. What I would like to see is more public dungeons, however, and better rewards dropping from them, and perhaps a bit more challenge in them rather than just increased mob count.

    We all get that grinding can suck at times, but I don't think this is the solution. Grinding is essential for MMOs, so I don't believe spawn camping Zaan in a public dungeon would be beneficial in the long-run for the game, only you at this time.
