I'm almost VR3 and people just don't want me because the content of VR dungeons is so difficult. So I'm questing along Caldwell's lines and waiting until I'm VR4 or 5

This, banished cell is hard but possible, fungal and we was unable to get past the first boss with two VR10 in group.

I have done one group dungeon in the beginning because I got the quest for it long before I got to the right level for the place, but ever since once I think about doing one I am too high level for the place and can't use the LFG tool to find people. Sure I can find a group the old fashion way, but tbh I have done so many dungeons over and over again in other mmo's that I don't miss doing them here at all.

Also no quests besides the first one seem to point you to the dungeons and nothing else is indicating the level range of those place. I just forget about them tbh.

Not seen anyone call for a group in a while either so I think most are either doing it with guildies or skipping them as well.

I am having too much fun questing and in Cyrodiil to miss anything but a few skill points I think. Doubtful that any dungeon is fun enough to endure pugging it, been there, done that and burned out from it in other mmo's.

If you're speaking pre-VR, then no, I also do dungeons because I like group content in an MMO, and find questing rather bland. I play 5 toons between 20 and 27. I've been playing since release. Can you figure out why my toons are STILL below level 30?

Last few days I've not logged in much. Lack of character progression is painful.

Yes you get no XP from doing dungeons at all. This is sad. The game should be able to provide a way to group and progress. This is absurd I absolutely do not like questing 95% of the time. Had I known this I would never have bought this game.

It was impossible to get parties through the group finder tool before craglorn was released, it may have an issue where it only searches in your shard, sat countless hours in that thing for days on end and only getting one other player matched into the group and never finding the last two.

If you want to group for a dungeon just port through the vr zones asking in zone chat for the roles you need and people will join, the group finder tool is worthless/broken/not used.

I'm talking about veteran dungeons BTW.

They need to add an option so V12 can join the LFG system for V1 vent dugns

Craglorn, V1-V11 are doing exp grid groups, V12 doing trails.

Finding a group for any quest stuff in Craglorn or instanced dugn runs are almost impossible.

As a templar, I have a tank build, healer build and a dps build (yes its a joke but I try) but after looking for 3 others for over 2 hrs each time, I give up. Getting 2dps is easy, but getting a tank or healer (with be doing the one of thoses roles) is hard.

My brother and I just hit 50 yesterday, so we haven't looked for a group yet (though we did pop our heads into FG to see how far we could get). We'll look for a group at some point, probably later today. He tanks and I heal so finding a group shouldn't be too huge of an ordeal. I'll decide based on that whether or not I'll try for more.

Oh wow, is this true?? VR12 can't do the other VR dungeons??? That is ridiculous. No wonder it is so hard to find people. @ZOS ALL VETERAN DUNGEONS SHOULD BE OPEN TO ALL VETERAN RANKS!

FrauPerchta · June 2014

I have trouble finding dungeon groups even at the low end of things. Newest character started trying to find a group for Spindle as soon as I got the quest, tried each day. Today at level 20 I finally found a group.

A V10, I could join the V1-V5 and the V6-V10 VR dugns LFG que

Once I hit V11, I could not longer join the LFG que for V1-V5 dugn, I had to do it the old way, go into the zone and say I was looking.

SoulScream · June 2014

The way it all works is really bad. Another example, I missed doing some normal group dungeons and wanted to run them for fun when I was a veteran. I cannot use the group find tool at all for normal dungeons. I cannot go to normal zones not in my faction to LFG. I had to have a low level friend make a group.

Palidon · June 2014

A lot of folks don't want to do the Veteran Group Dungeon because ESO makes them so Rediculously Hard to accomplish. Entering those dungeons with a group of four is a waste of time soul gems and gold spent on repairing ones armor. Nine times out of ten a group of 4 is just going to get waxed. They need to open the Veteran Group Dungeons to 12 or make other options of 6 or 8. I think ESO's game plan is to make the game so hard that players just get pissed off and frustrated. They are sure accomplishing that mission.

Sadly the Grouping sucks, that's all. If you join a decent PVE Guild you should be able to find a few people to join you.

rusila22 · June 2014

I feel sad for these players who want to enjoy more the game by doing dungeon but ZOS didn't care of this problem(dungeons need a readjustement to be better fun and a little more easier when you are levelin up), i really feel so sad

phaneub17_ESO · June 2014

There's not really an incentive to do them for the difficulty factor involved, with the limited stats on gear it's so much better to craft your items and rely on farming outdoors where everyone gets loot regardless of party status. Jewelry is the only pull to doing them, and if you don't have a reason to min/max then its less of a draw. I'm using the VR1 Warlock neck and rings, I don't see myself upgrading beyond that unless I buy them from someone else who has made the effort. I'm stockpiling gold with NOTHING to spend it on, the 1g horse is more than enough for PvE wise play and I have no plans on doing PvP.
