QoL suggestion for public dungeons

jommerryrth · September 2023

in normal and vet dungeons we have the ability to port to them from the wayshrine.

How about adding this feature to public dungeons also? esp since public dungeons are part of endeavors frequently...

seems reasonable to me.

Greetings,

After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic, as it's about dungeons.

Thank you for your understanding

I was going to suggest that it might be related to the fact that dungeons are separate instances. I'm not sure whether public dungeons are separate instances from the zones they're in.

But then I considered that we can teleport directly to wayshrines (for a fee) and to the exterior of player houses, so now I'm not sure it has anything to do with instances.

Although maybe it does after all, because if you queue for a dungeon or teleport directly to one from the map, exiting the dungeon puts you back where you were before.

The same is true when you queue for a battleground, or for a campaign in Cyrodiil or the Imperial City-- exiting the instance places you back at whatever location you were at when you accepted the queue.

In contrast, if you were to teleport to a public dungeon and then exit, it would put you outside the entrance to the public dungeon. I don't see why that should be a problem, since that's comparable to teleporting to the interior of a player house you own and then exiting the player house, but maybe there's some obscure issue that would need to be addressed to make it so-- aside from any UI changes, that is.

i believe they are separate instances yea as the zone chat inside only ever has people in the dungeon.
however unlike group dungeons anyone can join you in a public dungeon

Why not? Definitely a QoL feature.

i usually use beam me up to get to public dungeons quickly

though this does both depend on being on PC to use the addon, and other players in your friends/guilds actually being in the location your trying to get to lol

some, but not all, public dungeons are close to wayshrines/houses, though even wayshrines are still unreliable if you havent actually explored the zone yet
