Another case of a well-tested "fix" in a patch... inspires such confidence...

Dear ZOS,
Please call EA/BioWare and get their LFG tool as used in SW-TOR. It'll cost you less than all the money you're spending for labor on a grouping tool that doesn't work.
Sincerely,
The Players

I've been talking with a few Vet players yesterday and there seems to be a confusion which search combination to use? Do you use "dungeon" as your activity and their select one of the Vet level dungeons, or do you select "veteran dungeon" as an activity and then select one of the few Vet dungeons that are listed?

Two days later and 6 hours of testing and still no luck. I am glad to see some of us had more success, but this tool is still not good enough.
Didn't this get tested on the PTS? Or were the patch notes about a fix just a bunch of words, with no real meaning behind them?

Ok, thanks everyone. We're passing along all your feedback.

Now that the appropriate people have received our feedback, what do they say? Will there be any further attempts to fix this, or is it working as intended?

I have been trying to get into Arx (non-vet) for the last few days. No luck at all and I'm a tank / DPS. Ugh.

Problem is, even spamming zone chat I'm getting no nibbles. I'm beginning to worry a bit.

The problem with zone chat is that it offers a severely limited number of players who can respond to your LFG. It doesn't get any better with Undaunted pledges. That's why LFG is so important and the question why it's still not fixed so mind boggling.

The real issue is a big population drop in the game and many new people who do play forget to use the LFG option or just rather quest. The main issue in my opinion is Vet dungeon groups. I feel like most people including myself have faction pride and also after doing the other faction questing in vet levels and making a new character it just is not fun doing the other factions again. The issue is when you hit lvl 50 / vet 1 on your faction and now want to just do dungeons and maybe Craglorn from vet1 -14 you cannot find anyone and nobody used the LFG options. Population drop is the biggest issue though and as much as I want this game to do well and I still will stick around longer because of it, The veteran ranks were a bad Idea. I am positive vet ranks are a big reason ESO population dropped a lot. It destroyed faction pride and having to go to enemy faction zones was a big smack in the face also. Personally I think they should of done 1-50 max level and kept it that way till new content comes out. They also should of made it so if you want to experience the first 5 zones of every faction then you need to play that faction. It also would of made a lot of players have at least 2 alts besides their original main. The real question for me though is when new zones come out like wrothgar is supposed to eventually, they better better be a solo thing for the most part with some hard dungeons like usual and the world bosses like usual as well and you will need 2-3 players for that and the rest of the questing solo just like how they did in the 1-50 zones. If they do not make Wrothgar at least Vet 1 at start then I guarantee tons of the people who would try coming back to ESO to try it again would leave because lots of their characters are only 45-vet1-2. Now having the other zones after the original 1-50 I understand and making all the other content available for all factions to go there. I just think as a introduction to ESO they should of kept it all the factions apart like said above and no going to other factions yet to quest. It would of helped LFG much more as well and kept more people together and confined to their main zones till future content.
