Why Did ZoS Remove...?

Group Finder for Trials??
I just can't understand this.. This weekend I was determined to at least try a Trial, only to discover that there isn't even matchmaking for them anymore. I know this used to exist on Xbone because thats how I found a group for my first Dragonstar Arena. I did eventually find a group but matchmaking seems critical for an activity that requires 12 people!

✭✭✭✭✭I don't actually know...
But I'm giong to wildly guess it's because the group finder scales you whenever you use it... and trials don't scale?
Just throwing out idea. Does seems weird to take it away, but if there was a technical issue due to ^ I could see why...Lone Wolf HelpFor the solo players who know, sometimes you just need a hand.PC | NA | AD-DC-EP | Discord2 -

✭✭Its probably more to do with cross faction grouping imo.This one has an eloquent and well thought out response to tha... Ooh sweetroll!1 -
Catblade✭✭✭✭I agree I miss it. No one ever used it but for guys like me who can't use their mic 90% of the time it sucks. People treat me like a third wheel because i can't talk but I outperform most of them. They still manage to blame me although I'm usually the last man standing dying trying to rez their scrubby butts0 -

Because Trials are not VR15-16 so it wouldn't work with the system until those instances are updated or changed. There isn't a scaled equation for Trials...its at level regardless of your level and using the group finder equation would make us all over powered.
Also, when the Trials were in group finder in the past, it actually didn't work per ZOS.

Grouping Tools
Removed Trials from the activity type section of the Grouping Tool as it was non-functional.Edited by NewBlacksmurf on December 14, 2015 6:17PM-PC (PTS)/Xbox One: NewBlacksmurf

That actually makes perfect sense. Thanks for the info0 -

✭✭As per @ZOS_KaiSchober it is because Trials don't scale. Only instances that scale can work with the (current) LFG tool and so they removed Trials. Also, ZOS don't want cross-faction Trials.
Who knows, maybe in the future Trials will scale and they will make a return?Edited by Paulington on December 14, 2015 6:22PM2 -
Peel_Ya_Cap_517✭✭✭✭Thank you for the insight everyone! Hadn't considered the scaling problem...
Perhaps they could just eliminate scaling for Trials and limit it to people v12+N64 NA EP0 -
