Guild Wars 2

Hey guys, so I’ve been farming for a while now, and decided to get in on the dungeon explorable scene. Need 250 ascalonian tears for my legendary, but I am finding it nearly IMPOSSIBLE to find groups for this… It seems like I’ll be waiting outside for nearly 45 minutes and I MAY find 1 or 2 ppl interested, then another 45 minutes to find the rest. We then proceed to go in, get slayed because they are all level 35 and don’t make it passed the spider queen…

Now I am not complaining about the lack of skill from my teammates, I am equally to blame (well maybe not equally, I am level 80), so I don’t care about dying so much, it’s just so annoying that if you do have a fail group, you can’t just go back out and find another because it takes hours to get a group!

Look, I definitely thought it was a plus not having heroes/henchman and having everyone play together with no instances, etc. But for Dungeons they NEED to put in the ability to have heroes/henchman! I don’t know, am I missing something here? How do you guys do your explorable runs?

As of right now I guess my only option is to find a large guild where people are doing several runs all the time. Does anyone know of an explorable dungeon guild with a lot of members so that I can just log on any time and play? Very boring waiting around to form a group.

Without a proper LFG channel or tool to use, I’m thinking the best way to find other players for explorables may be to form a public “guild” that people swap to whenever they are looking. May work because you can form dungeon groups across servers. Are there any dungeon explore guilds already around?

Having groups where all 5 members aren’t dedicating all of their time/utilities/traits towards damage is usually the best place to start (this is far too often the case).

Other than that all I can say is dodge often and be thankful the Spider Queen has been made pitiful compared to the monster she was in beta.

^^ I actually preferred her that way.

One problem is that the main channel is only for the area you happen to be in. I’ve seen people spamming for it in Lion’s Arch but there certainly needs to be a server wide channel just like WoW has.

Of course some servers don’t have many 80s running around and for those who’ve tried some hard modes we know it actually takes good players and perhaps vent to make a good run not last 3+ hours.
