Allowing people to blindly queue up for vWGT at 30 cp creates a bad situation for everyone. It's a bad situation for the guy who queued up not knowing the dungeon is far higher in difficulty then he is ready for, and it's a bad situation for everyone else who has to tell him he isn't ready for it.

Please put a recommended CP on each dungeon in the dungeon finder so people know what they are getting into when they queue, and allow us to set a CP minimum on who we get grouped with when we select a specific dungeon.

A poster came up with this which I like better than CP reference.

But your general idea, labeling dungeons according to their difficulty is a good idea in my opinion. It shouldn't be cp related but more a little description for each dungeon in the group finder:
- Wayrest Sewers: Cleaning the sewers from it's undead inhabitants. A perfect task for an aspiring adventurer.
- City of Ash: Only experienced fighters should go on the mission to rescue other members of the undaunted from the Deadlands
- Imperial City Prison: Assisting a dremora on her path to vengeance - only perfectly geared and trained heroes should attempt such a foolish quest.

    Wouldn't matter as queuing for a dungeon using the group finder scales everyone up to CP160 anyway.

    It doesn't work. 12k hp at 30 cp "scaled up" isn't going to make vWGT happen, even more so for vICP.

    I should also add dungeon finder is working too well. It's making 7man groups for a 4 man dungeon.

    please? pretty please?

    So, I agree, people should be locked away from any group content until they can stop being plebs and get on the very least 501 cp to be in my group. Also i want the ability to inspect them in-game, and if they lack any gold gear or maelstrom weapons i demand my right to rightfully remove them from my presence.

    We really need dungeon difficulty and cp indicators. It will not solve the whole problem, but it will solve a large part of it.

    Many new guildies of mine ask about WGT and ICP, thinking it is a good idea to do those dungeons as a level 10 player in looted random gear & 0 group experience, weapon swap or skills levelled.
    - in case anyone is wondering, it is a very bad idea!

    I know this is not serious but just for everyone's understanding none of what I mentioned would lock anyone away from content.

    I had a guy argue with me that he should be allowed to join our Maw run at his 94cp level, he literally got mad at me and called me an elitist when I told him no and that he'd die and we couldn't carry him.

    The content needs to have some indicators at the recommended levels for it, even if it's battle leveling players.

    There just needs to be a third tier of dungeon difficulty. The third tier should be based on a gear score and CP level. Hardcore gamers should have the option to take on elite level content with likeminded adventurers.

    I mean just a set gear and color recomendation for dungeons would be good.

    There are lowbies who are fairly well dressed, but progress slowly because they care about crafting and character development... these lowbies do have a chance of completing a group dungeon with like-minded players with a little struggle, but they can not complete it with players who just grinded to level 10, wears random looted gear, got 0 buff food, soul gems or proper skills slotted.

    I don't mind carrying someone through a dungeon if we can manage it but usually when I PUG, the group I'm with can barely carry their own weight let alone someone else's.

    I've gone from DPS to healer because the healer couldn't stay alive or keep group alive, and I've gone from healer to DPS because the group couldn't get anything down quick enough.

    That's the risk with the pug tho. Can't tell you how many people I've grouped with that were Qd as tank and were really Bow DPS or something stupid like that lol. Good times in Tamriel...

    Aside from ICP and WGT you can PUG with just about anyone and make it through. Those two dungeons are a step above the rest difficulty wise and some kind of indicator of that would be helpful. Removing them from the Random Daily finder might alleviate this issue, or an option to let the leader "pass" on that daily and get a different random dungeon? Trying to do ICP with a lvl 16 healer (brand new to game) a lvl 22 DPS (I assume they were new since they spent 95% of the time eating dirt), and lvl 44 DPS and a lvl 48 Tank (me) wasn't much fun. Needless to say we didn't clear the first boss. It wasn't a lack of skill or effort but more of a simple lack of gear and stats to combat that particular content. Our Healer and DPSs weren't doing anything obviously stupid like standing in red etc, but just hit like limp noodles (my 100% tanky tank did the most dps for cripes sake), and just couldn't stay alive against the amount of enemies. Bump us all up to lvl 50 with blue or purple set gear and we probably would have been fine.

    The sad thing is that new to the game lvl 16 Healer was turned off from dungeons and had a very bad impression of group content in the game based on that. Hopefully they will try again in easier content.

    Yeah I feel like the 30cp guy felt the same. I tried to give him food but everything I had was too high in CP for him. I cooked some trifood for him and mailed it after we quit the group on the first boss. It puts everyone in such a bad position and really gives a bad impression of the game that these new players won't be able to put into context.

    Technically he is qualified for the dungeon, it's 10-160 CP.
    What bothers me more from this was that people said this patch would balance the imperial city dungeons and make the content more easier for PuGs.

    For DPS or healer it's going to matter if they don't have the right gear. Not sure for tank.

    The weird thing is with scaling... when doing normal random runs with non-veteran group members the available dungeons are limited by the member's level. For example if there are 3x v501 and one lvl 12 person in the group the game will only throw you into Fungal, Spindle or Banished Cells. I don't see the point of this tbh, but I could imagine having similar system for veteran dungeons (champion dungeons? - I'm confused). For those it would matter more because of places like WGT and ICP.
