After reaching level 80 all there is left to do is grind for gear/money/karma either in sPvP, Dungeons or WvWvW.

Now trying to run dungeons to gain tokens for gear is too much of a hassle unless you have friends willing to do it with you without dropping out. Once 2 or 3 party members die its too difficult to recover since new players will get fed up and leave.

The update was supposed to make dungeons more fun and challenging, challenging and a grind are two different things. And FUN??? Really what is fun about having to run the same kittening dungeon over and over again to get gear. Yes there are multiple paths, but some take longer than others. The rewards just aren’t worth the effort and newbies don’t stand a chance.

Its all fine and well that there needs to be a strategy to defeat a boss or clear a dungeon, but it should be MUCH more rewarding to match the challenge it presents. Why should we waste our time with a new player holding us back or pulling in mobs getting us wiped for minimal amounts of money/loot/tokens. Doing it over and over again.

Its boring.

I’m not sure what you want. If you don’t enjoy dungeons at all, why do you even need the gear? I enjoy the dungeons. There’s a lot of them, do them for fun if you don’t want to “grind”.

They could have no gear, what would you do then?

My opinion on dungeons (casual/pug):
Story: Complete Nightmare.
Explorable: See below.
To much Trash/Adds/Aoe/1-2shots that hit harder then the bosses itself.

I don’t always want to play WvW, sometimes there isn’t even a point because there aren’t enough people from my server and we just become cannon fodder.

Why do i even need it? i didn’t say i needed it, i want it, it looks cool, it appeals to me, what doesn’t is the never ending monotonous grind of doing it over and over again. the only way to get anything once you reach 80 is either grind for gold, karma or dungeon tokens. —→GRIND<-— In case you aren’t aware that was one of the big selling points of the game, they were going to make the game in such a way that you could enjoy doing what you liked to earn what you wanted. They openly stated grinding was not fun, What do they do, make all end game content an endless grind while they mess around with difficulty levels and give minimal rewards
