Don't do Random Dungeon Finder on Console

Seberii · July 2016

Our healer was a lv14 DK with a 2H. Enough said.
Let's all pray to the RNG gods that text chat on console isn't bugged next update.

*Turned out fine. Had to craft him a resto staff

I am hoping it is a success. Anyone on Ps4 NA look for me. I will be LFG

boldscot · July 2016

You know it will be, they're going to release another big update alongside a DLC to a game that's already in a bit of a mess. No way it's going to go smoothly.

I did the Normal RDF on Sunday, got a DPS spot in <1 minute and we had a great run through Elden Hollow. No one died, though none of us was low level.
Maybe your level 14 DK didn't understand how to pick a role? I mean, it's pretty obvious but if you don't know...

Because you were born knowing how to play ESO ?

I don't mind grouping with newcomers, I do mind grouping with people like you.

I guess he wasn't paying attention to the tutorial about healing, nor the warning that he was too low level to enter an instance.

Oh....wait.

I'm guessing that your took some time to give the player some tips before coming here and telling console users not to random queue.

I, for one, shall not be heeding your advice. I'll random queue when and where I want....and I'll deal with the good and the bad.

OP doesn't seem to understand that you need to fail before you can succeed.

Seberii · July 2016

I understand this, but it is just very frustrating when someone pics a role for a dungeon and doesn't stand by it.
In the end I had to zone out and make him a resto staff, but we eventually finished the dungeon

Hopefully ZOS don't bug up the Zone Chat for console next update because communicating on console is near impossible!

RebornV3x · July 2016

should be a level limit when it comes to doing random dungeons I'm all for helping new players but queueing up for a random dungeon is not the time or place for that. everyone just wants a quick 100k experience and be done with it. If you don't know how to play the game don't queue for a random dungeon also there should be a recommended level for each dungeon at the very least so unsuspecting players know what there getting into.

aww cmon lol, you shouldn;t need a healer EVER for any normal dungeons once you hit about 200cp. And the guy is a super loe level too, can't even dual b aryet.

i say be nice, i like the lower level players, they're often alot more respectful to their teamates and have good intentions. This opposed to 501cp players that know better, don't care, and I swear actually try to make content much more frustrating than it should be all while calling you stupid and demanding you carry them faster.

xD

I got a soft spot for lowbies, they're often fun to play with. I mean if you can;t play with a lvl 14 as a much higher level that says alot about your skill/mentality >.<

we had groupfinder bug out, and I had to kick this lvk 10. I invited him to a=run whitegold with us after we finished our dungeon. was his first dungeom ever, he did super

So exactly how do you propose that new players learn dungeons?

Join a guild there's plenty granted there's no way to search for a guild in game which is a problem but still anyone that plays ESO has internet the games been out for 2 years theres no excuse for being bad at this game. You can even use area chat/text. Most people doing random dungeons are trying to get a quick 100k exp not teach new people how to play.

Its simple at level 45 along with the Undaunted Invitation you can do random normal dungeons and at CP1 can do random veteran dungeons.

The whole point of random normal dungeon is to group everyone both the experienced and inexperienced together to do dungeons. The lowbie may have been looking for a group to do the first zone dungeon and it might have been his first dungeon. Agreeing to do a random normal dungeon includes agreeing to help first timers. If you want to do dungeons with people if a specific level do random Vet dungeons.

Glad the OP helped out the newbie with a healing staff.

If all they are looking for is a quick 100k then they should probably come in with a plan on how they will get by with out a healer or a tank. Or get use to teaching those healers or tanks that arent so good.

Console text chat will simply get added below group finder in the list of broken things on console. Don't know why they keep pushing out new stuff when they cannot fix broken stuff. I guess new consumers with money are more important than existing customers who have already paid up.

RebornV3x - do not get me started on level limits for group finder - people have to start somewhere. They have as much right to the dungeons as anyone else and owe you nothing for the privilege. I am surprised you had minimum CP1 for vet dungeons, most elitists think you should have CP300+ before you can start playing in their superior realm.

I guess you would suggest people learning to drive should not be on public roads until they are capable of surviving a race at Daytona or a new doctor should be capable of performing open heart surgery blindfolded before he can take your temperature.

Burning_Talons · July 2016

Thats nothing. I had a DPS who was a magic NB with a bow spamming light attacks only to get merciless reslove. Had to invite him to my guild to fix that mess.

This is actually something that confuses me more then anything else. I went through a dungeon with a 45 sorc that never did anything other the light attack.

I can understand not being ready to tank or heal. But who doesnt want to use the cool stuff they have? Even if it is the wrong stuff.

I wouldn't mind grouping with newcomers for as long as ZoS disables the armor damage in dungeons. Due to the high cost of repairing for armor damage has caused me to not want to play with new comers. Do you think that I am a jerk for having this standards? Each time I follow my heart I wand up getting pinched hard. It comes to the point where you need to think of logic instead of your heart.

Like Vaas Montenegro from Far cry 3 would say... "Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is? Insanity is doing the exact... same (Mods on this forum don't like the word) thing... over and over again, expecting... (Mods on this forum don't like the word) to change. That... is crazy; but the first time somebody told me that... I dunno, I thought they were (Mods on this forum don't like the word) me, so boom — I shot him."

And yes. We all had to start off somewhere. We were all noobs at some point or another... but when it comes down to self financing newcomers to enjoy the aspects of the game is where I draw the line.

Props to OP for taking the time to help the poor lowbie out. The newcomers need guidance from the veterans so they can git gud too!

It reminds me when during the first week for the launch of the game I gave someone a vamp bite. At the time we knew nothing about travel to player so I rode alongside this lowbie from Grahtwood all the way to Reapers March

It took like 40 mins because neither of us had a horse!

Repair costs are pocket money, it's a poor excuse to be unpleasant and unwelcoming to newcomers.

It must be memorable to actually do that much without warping... Free exploration is free

sbam66 · July 2016

Even though it's sometimes buggy I've had pretty good experiences in group finder, if at least 2 players know what they're doing most dungeons are cake

Xbox one NA

Asuryan11 · July 2016

"Don't do random dungeon finder on console" well, my experience on the Xbox one is pretty positive in the fact everyone knows their roles. Console players are not any different then PC players to be honest. I transferred here. A very alive and well community on console. If you want to take your one bad experience and base it off of a "console" basis then I disagree. Maybe you should move on to the "master race" so you don't have to deal.

TheUrbanWizard · July 2016

Did the vet city of ash pledge with a bunch of 501s the other day. As I hadn't done the quest abd skill point yet I messaged the host explaining the situation.

His reply? Don't die and I wouldn't be kicked. Well I died once on the final boss, we all did. The relief when we got activity completed was awesome.

The pure annoyance when the mighty host disbanded the group immediately, after me saying I hadn't got the skill point, with one quest marker left, was immeasurable. It must have been a pathetic sight, me running to close a portal (or something) as the the timer removing me wound down!

This was the first time I seriously lost faith in the players of this game.

I would like to ask you where do you get all of your gold from? It can't be soley on the quest due to poor payout at the end. Which elite trading guild are you currently a member in? I would be glad to donate that pocket change if you can hook me up with those elite trading guilds that can help finance the cost of my armor.

I currently play 1-2 hours a day with maybe 4 hours on one day on the weekend and I have no difficulty in making at least 100k - 125k a week on top of repairs and paying for 2-3 horse upgrades a day. If repair costs are too much you are not selling enough of the loot drops and/or not doing the easy crafting writs.

Sleep · July 2016

it's the same on pc. usually it's tank not tanking or healer not healing. and I have seen dd using puncture, or only spamming restoration staff heavy attack.
