When i use the group search tool, it never find anyone. are there ports I need to open to increase the chances of finding people? if yes what are the ports?
The grouping tool is useless.
Don't waste your time.
Join a Guild that does regular runs of whatever it is you are after or spam Zone like many others.
What I do is I just do quests while having the grouping tool open. The reason I do that is because it takes a good amount of time to find a group, Also the reason why it takes for ever is because the searching tool is looking for what ever you specify you are looking for say Sewers dungeon it will look for people looking for that dungeon that are also around your level. So that's why it takes for ever. Hope you can find a group to play with!
It also depends on what you are playing. If you are playing a healer or tank it normally does not take long, but if you are playing a dps it can take a very long time, because the vast majority of people play dps and the system is trying to pair up one tank, one healer, and two dps.
