Q:

Very simple question:
How you start playing in the dungeons?
There are no guides for the basics like how you get there and how you start?
At lvl 62 i have 2 emails inviting me to go play dungeons and shows me the locations on the map(for like 3 secs) but no guides how to get there , who to cantact or anything else like how to form a team and how many need for team etc.
The game realy needs some guides or information about where you find informations.
Right now that is all i would like to find out. How you get to play dungeons after you get the email and how you get there?
Thanks.

Well just to point out if you open your map you will notice the dungeon icon in area’s. This icon is its location. As for getting into the dungeons there no talking to anyone. Just form a party and go into it. You only have to be in the area to zone in.

Edit: One person does have to be at the dungeon location though. Once they go in any party member in the area is given the option to zone in reguardless of where they are in that same area.

The dungeons are located on your world map and are marked as what looks like a gate/door. You do not need the e-mails to see them, they are just sent to you so that you know your high enough level to enter the instance.

As for how to get there, you do what everyone else does: walk. For example, I’m norn, and leveled primarily in the norn areas. The first 3 dungeons are in the char, human, and sylvari starting areas. The easiest way to get there is to head to lion’s arch > take the asuran portal to those races starting city, then walk outside. The first zone in each of those instances have the dungeons. Once you get higher leveled though, the dungeons move to more difficult/far away zones, but by then you should probably have mapped a good part of the world by then.

Call me when this game gets fixed…. if it ever does….

Very simple answer!
Google it instead of waiting for an hour for people to answer your post. I doubt this is the game for you if you cant even figure out how to get to the dungeon.

Thanks,
that is what i wwas thinking but how you get there. That part of the map is closed to me/blurred out. How i get there? There are other regions on the map that i was trying to get to with no info on any pathways. Wiki has some information on which zone is connected to which one but you have to find needle in the hay sack to find the cave or gate etc that takes you there. So how you get to those dongeons on the map?
More precisely how you get to the one in Ascalon?

Go to Lion’s Arch > take the Asuran portal to black citadel (char starting city) > walk outside. You are now in the zone which contains the Ascalon catacombs dungeon. Now walk to its location on the map. There will be a waypoint next to it that you can activate and use in the future for faster travel.

If that doesn’t help you reach it, i don’t know what will. If you have never been to Lion’s Arch before, enter sPvP heart of the mists > take the asuran portal there to Lion’s arch.

Use the gate system till you find something close. In general most of the dungeons at lower levels are 1 area away from a starter city. Also if your in your 60’s and cant find the area’s these are in might want to take a day or two and just explore in the general direction the dungeon’s are in. So far none of them are hard to get to. Only one thats tricky i have found is arah but we wont touch on that one at this time.
