Random normal event worst case scenario
Nightfall12
✭✭✭✭✭
Ok
I've been enjoying this event so far. The DPS queue was a little long but less than 10 minutes. Quick and easy run through dire frost. Queue up my healer sweet i'm in in no time flat quick easy run, have some low levels in the group and puts us in Fungal grotto, The tank freaks out and quits before it starts, No problem 2 dps and healer super easy. I'm digging this even if my rewards are lackluster so what I get to nail some heads to my wall! Then one of my guilds start a rotating group and I get a few more easy runs with pre made teams. But it gets late and they all go to sleep…weaklings….I grab one of my lvl 50s this has been easy so far right? Well this toon may be lvl 50 and CP 690, but i do not have all that many skill points or even maxxed many of the skills, so i know this toon needs work, but these a random normals right?
Well
Queue up as DPS and wait for 8 minutes and suddenly the screen shows it
Ruins of Mozzarella……cheese.
The team has just lost its DPS and they are at the second to last boss already. And he's to much to handle. It takes like 10 minutes after using the portal just to reach them. Quick team wipe Tank quits……at this point i'm hoping the others will call it quits because i know i'm not getting any reward for this, but i'm to stupid to abandon peeps.
So what I'm saying is this event SHOULD NOT place you in a dungeon that is already under way and count as your daily if its going to deny you the box.

✭✭ZOS didn't make a new system for the event, they simply add the event box into random grp finder reward.
I thought you won't be put into a half-way grp if you queue as random grp finder?
If that happens and after you finish it doesn't count as random grp finder...well that sucks0 -

Nightfall12✭✭✭✭✭Honestly having a low level on the Nomal at least makes them much easier because you don't get stuck in the hard dungeons. so at least the lower levels are able to contribute accordingly. May not mow through like some people do but they are fun.Ummm stuff… about stuff…or something.2

✭✭✭✭✭to get a random dungeon daily reward (and the mystery box with it) you just need to kill the last boss. so had you been able to finish, you would have gotten a reward box.dirty worthless casual.

Nightfall12✭✭✭✭✭Ok so they changed it! Originally they announced you had to kill them all. So thank you for pointing that out i checked the dev tracker and found the update….so thats good to know, still rough to get put in that dungeon when the group is already fraying thoughUmmm stuff… about stuff…or something.3

This, so getting in on last boss in an weak group is nice if you can carry. No you do not have to be able to solo boss you get help Have finished plenty of dungeons on my healer simply by migrating the damage because of fake tank or low dps.to get a random dungeon daily reward (and the mystery box with it) you just need to kill the last boss. so had you been able to finish, you would have gotten a reward box.
This work pretty well in normal, now on harder veteran dungeons all have to carry their weight.
Grinding just make you go in circles.

This, random dungeon is for xp, specific dungeon for loot or pledge.Personally I like this function. I only ever do a Normal daily for the XP. If I drop in on the last boss it means that juicy XP mother load is onLy a few mins away, sorted.

Stop the grind! Get rid of stupid events and daily-quest gallore. Get rid of "have a chance of 1 in a million to get a piece of 1 in 30 to get a stupid motif or pet... wtf..."
And at this point just remove all classes and have everyone choose their set of skills. then balance accordingly to skills always used vs. skills never used.1 -

✭✭✭✭I've honestly been dreading that exact scenario that you describe - after 5 runs of Fungal I (in all lvl 50+ groups for the most part, no less), where I was on characters that I would be confident running any normal on - I am terrified that as soon as I queue a character with CP140 gear and in need of a respec that I will end up in RoMGM - Ghost Sea Trading Co - NA PC

It does count for a random as you only have to kill the last boss for it. And getting a dlc dungeon isnt that odd, as everyone is running the event now, with a lot of people on eso+.Huyen Shadowpaw, dedicated nightblade tank - PS4 (Retired)
