So i recently got back into GW2 after taking a few month break over the holidays. I hit level cap and decided its time to think long term, as far as the gear i wanted my character to have. So i figured its time to start dugeon crawling. I was disappointed to find how difficult it was to get into a group.

It seemed that most people form the groups in lions arch, and then port to the dugeon, but this means sitting in the city while waiting. Mean while there is little else to do while you wait for a map chat to pop up calling for the dungeon you’re looking for.

The alternative to this would be to set yourself to LFG in the social panel, but this only shows players in the zone that you are in. So then i would need to be in Calderon if i was looking for a Twilight Arbor group, and I don’t think anybody uses the LFG anyway.

So here’s my suggestion, a revised LFG panel, that works across all zones, and allows you comment on what type of group you are looking for. Also a dugeon que system might work well, where it pairs you up with random players looking for the same dungeon. This should work better than other MMO’s since the holy trinity issue is not really prevailant. Or at least a sever wide Lfg chat channel (that you could toggle on/off) So that people won’t get blocked for chat spamming.

other opinions?

The time that it took you to write this, could have been spent doing a little bit of reading on the blogs posted on the main guildwars2.com page to see that they have already said they are working on a LFG tool and should be released later this year

Untill this is in game, use gw2lfg.com to find groups much easier then spaming LFG in LA

thank you eliteZ, that website seems greatly useful. i can’t wait to get home and try it out. I didn’t mean to beat a dead horse or anything, but i am, and have always been, horrible at finding anything specific in message forums.
