Asking in my guilds' WhatsApp and discord to find a group to run dungeons with, usually people join to level undaunted on some of their chars as well. We usually pick a time during a Saturday or Sunday afternoon when no one is raiding, and we'll do dailies and then we just do the base game dungeons. Veteran with Hardmode, Speedrun, no-deaths etc nets you a lot of undaunted XP, so with a good group it's not too bad.

The bolgrul dailies and pugging dungeons is much too slow, because pugging vet dungeons is such a pain and the normal dungeons don't level undaunted fast enough.

I queue up as a random DD then specific dungeons I still need while running the other combat and crafting dailies. I can usually complete all of the Undaunted tasks in the time it takes to do all of the other stuff. Oh, I only do normal and didn't find leveling Undaunted to be anywhere near as onerous as the Mages Guild.

Roll with a known crew, hit L50 then burn through vet, HM, speed run, no death at same time. A few of those a night and you done in a fortnight.

I fully leveled the undaunted line doing only the daily solo quests.

How many does that take???

20 per level. So a lot.

Run with guildies and return the favour when they need a healer/tank to level their DPS.

Edited to add: Just having either a healer or a tank queue with you will make the queue pretty fast, from my experience.

I’m trying to level my first stamina dps and the queue times are terrible. I’ll try the daily delve.

I was also thinking about asking someone if they wanted to trade, I’ll heal them in one dungeon and then dps in the other.

Reason why there are so few healers is pretty obvious too. A lot of dps have terrible attitudes. Especially those under CP300 who are new to the game and came from WoW, they expect easy mode and get pissy if they die from doing something dumb.

At first it upset me, but now I think it’s hilarious, but dps attitudes are definitely the problem.

I just grab a couple guildies that need Undaunted on their alts and run through some dungeons.

Daily delve quests from lvl45, group sharing the quests with guild members. When I reach lvl50 I do the normal dungeon quests to get skill points and some bigger Undaunted achievement points, maybe farm some vet ones for achievements if I need to.

But I don't use the group finder anyway, so "other" was my only option.

I pass my tank gear along to the next alt and tank it. Taunt it, position it, pull it, survive it. I love tanking.

I create tank characters and then Zos nerfs non-dk tanking in some way and I have to retire them to overland dd.

I’ve tanked on nb (was my favorite obsession for the longest), Sorc (worst one), Warden (favorite), and now I’m going to tank on templar. I missed the boat on the blazeplar meta unfortunately (and now they are messing up time stop for pve) so he’ll only jump in to tank on guild activities (for the dungeons he can’t solo).

The one character I made to be a dd from the start is a stam dk who leveled his Undaunted with my warden’s tanking gear and Pierce Armor on, no other changes.

My main/crafter is a standard healing magplar, as cookie as the cutter gets except his race. He was made to be a healer from the start so he doesn’t apply to this poll.

You need friends

Do people still queue as dps all alone?

buying drinks, doing delve dailies mostly. i do tend to mostly play healers nowadays, so queueing up is not as bad, but I also try to get it out before they hit lvl 50. because i have come to rely on orbs far too much nowadays and can't bring myself to queue up for later dungeons without having acess to at least morphed version even if its still in process of leveling up

It depends. I try go to as tank as often as possible. For one as you said because the time in queues is a lot faster as a tank. But sometimes it's nice to go as DD, less pressure. But if you have say an archer, hard to tank as an archer. Not much to do then but to just practice patience in the dungeon queue.
