Guild Wars 2

Hi! Last time i checked this game was about 1+ year ago and my first expirience in dungeon (AC, story mode as i remember correct) was a bit frustrating …

I was expecting killing mobs and bosses, but realized that you needed to know many secrets, like finding hidden artifacts, avoid hidden deadly traps, talk with NPCs which helps you on your way and so on. So many things that i need to learn for FIRST dungeon? Not to mention that you could go down just because of one mistake.

I am more of a PvPer but i would also like to do some dungeons just for fun and i really don’t have a time to learn all that secrets. I like max lvl dungeons to be hard and challenging, but during leveling phase i would expect something more relaxing …
So, how are low lvl dungeons these days: any easier?
Sorry for english

All dungeons are going to be really easy to succeed on because it’s a lot different than it was during the first year of the game; people have for the most part figured out what to do for all dungeons so merely getting through a dungeon is nothing.

You won’t need to worry about getting through them, but if you try to do some of the higher level ones with first timers they might take some patience the first time around.

What about being melee for Dungeons: still required?

in meta and berserker groups yes
all welcome no

Dungeons are extremely easy in GW2 because they’re not punishing at all. You wipe, you merely waypoint, repair armor, and do another do over. So, with so many attempts its easy to learn the tricks of each dungeon. Back in GW1 however the stakes were very high, and a wipe meant you were done, even if you spent an hour or more in the elite mission…

However if you want an easy dungeon Sorrows Embrace Path 1 and Citadel of Flame Path 1 are as straightforward as it can get, and also very fast. Best of luck.

nope
trash mob are still pretty much 1hk even i m running with full rare/exotic
when i join all welcome, 1 mistake, the team wipe, everybody leave the party
i have study youtube, guide and still got wipe alot in AC, but ironically we dont wipe at boss, but trash mob

may be those “meta exp” group found it easy
but when i was in “all welcome” arent easy at all

it is strange, GW2 dungeon boss fight is much easier, coz you just need to read the animation to dodge the high hitting skills, while trash mob wipe you with number

I wouldnt know been trying to get my 500 CoE tokens for the past month and cant seem to get a group since i dont have zerker gear nor do i want to buy it just to get the tokens.

Everyone welcome groups are constantly created and filled in less than half an hour during off-peak hours(let alone near reset), I find your statement to be… untrue

You could fix your problem in so many ways. Post your own lfg, or join a guild that is active in dungeon runs, or just get your gokitten zerk gear. But instead of doing any of that you prefer to sit and complain about the toxic comunity.

Irrelevant, complaints on forums must be heard no matter how simple the solution!

Actually I already tried that and somehow i still get booted for not having zerker gear.

Because no one bothers to use blinds or soft CC. Ask someone to bring a thief or an ele and permablind them, they won’t do anything to you.
And yeah, obviously “all welcome” groups fail a lot pretty much everywhere. It’s a good place for newbies without gear to start at for an immersive experience (you’ll feel like when the game was just a few months old), but unless an experienced player willing to patiently pull that group through joins, it may take a lot of time and wipes to finish the dungeon. Joining “meta exp” groups takes a little bit of preparation (getting gear, looking up guides and common strategies), but usually pays off very well. You get different kinds of people (unfortunately lfg is nothing but a roulette), but at least you won’t wipe in AC.

Ty, guys
I just wanna ask which profession has the best survivability for dungeons, if you don’t mind?

Warrior or Necro for someone who’s less well versed with the active defense tools. If you’re able to actively defend yourself then it opens things up and really hard to say, warrior still up there. Guards have blocks for days, rangers with GS/Sword/dagger have plenty of evades and a block. Thieves have a plethora of evades. Engi have plentiful blocks and evades. Warrior blocks/evades again with whirlwind and mace/sword blocks. Mesmer has blocks and evades with their swords. Ele can pull out block utilities and have built in evades and if you go with a focus an invuln. Necro is the only weak active defense profession but I’m finding that absorbing stuff with DS works well enough in many situations.
