Since it seems no one is doing dungeons any more, at least not whenever i’ve been looking for groups, why not give us a solo mode so people who still need to explore them for achievements, do story mode and collect tokens for the old legendary weapons can do so? Obviously this is possible since you did it for Arah story mode, why not extend that to all dungeons and all modes as an optional thing.

At least give us a way to convert currencies. These days getting something like Gift of Ascalon is close to impossible.

WVW tokens for Tears for example.

Most of it is already soloable. Even cof path 1 is soloable if you have 5 account(and I actually tried it).

What he is saying is:

- the only reason some paths are not soloable is due to mechanics. Every other path is solable and has been soloed. Same goes for fractals.

Please, anet, listen to this idea!
As a solo player I feel this game lacks any reward to soloing a dungeon compared to doing it in a group, and I don’t think it would hurt group players.

Dungeons are dead, mate. You can post as many forum posts as you want, they won’t turn back on dungeons ever again as long there aren’t gamebreaking bugs that need to disappear and are simultaneously linked between open world and dungeon content.

Took me 3 runs of the dungeon to get the bug.

I really hope you’re wrong. They gonna have to do something. I looked again at lfg last night and not 1 not a single group for any of the dungeons. This is really depressing as i need tokens from several dungeons and haven’t finished my dungeon exploration as yet. Perhaps as some suggested in the past, gw1 style mercenary system should be implemented for dungeons, or the solo mode as i suggested.

They wanted to disincentivize dungeons, they did it. Anet succeeded in what they wanted to do, why would they turn back?

No, i am definitely not. Sorry to say though!

Against what?

Put your own LFG in! It’s you who is in the need, then do something. You cannot rely onto others. I am sure with an own LFG in an empty window ppl will come to join. All that matters is the waiting and running time. Because if you put in “all welcome”, your running time will likely be longer as if you put in “exp lvl 80” that will result in a longer time until the group is filled.

This is really depressing as i need tokens from several dungeons and haven’t finished my dungeon exploration as yet.

PvP-tracks will grant you the tokens as well and you can get them via PvP rank farm (no serious PvP gameplay needed, just hit and jump).

Perhaps as some suggested in the past, gw1 style mercenary system should be implemented for dungeons, or the solo mode as i suggested.

Not needed and there are already enough dungeon paths that can be soloed pretty easily without exploiting!
For example in Arah, Caudecus, Twilight Arbor, Ascalon, HotW and SE.

Took me 3 runs of the dungeon to get the bug.

This is a good idea.

I totally agree, the lfg for Dungeon is a ghost town. GG Anet.

Please nerf bag types instead of class skills!

The major problem about this people that wants to craft legendary needs to run those dungeons to get the Gift.
So my suggestion is get help from guild or try starting a group, I’m sure there many people that wants to do them for the tokens.

Yeah, its a bummer that dungeons are on the wayside now.

But if you need tokens, do what Vinceman said and do PvP reward tracks. Right now, PvP will be your best bet. (Be sure to grab your guilds pvp reward track bonus if it has one!)

Or try to find a guild. I know my guild will almost always help someone with dungeons if they just ask. To run 3 paths of a certain dungeons takes almost no time, and most of us are happy to help

Thanks for all ur suggestions, but i’ve not stepped a foot in pvp. I’m sorry but i hate it. I feel pvp does not belong in fantasy game nor do i feel we should be killing each other in a supposed co-op environment of an MMO. But that’s just me. I know many people like slaughtering one another and that’s fine, but i resent Anet trying to funnel us all into that mode in recent times. but that’s for another topic.

I’m sorry to say, don’t consider myself good enough player to solo dungeons in their current state, nor am i familiar with many of the dungeons paths or mechanic (yea not done much dungeons at all) and would like to explore them in my own time at my own pace. I always wanted to do them though but the way dungeons were run in the past and the kicking problems, put me of them ever since the game released. Just wish i had the freedom we have in gw1 of running our own heroes. I soloed all the dungeons in gw1 in both normal and hard mode with my heroes many times for achievements and wish i could do the same here.

I tend to lag in dungeons too for some reason. like 2 days ago, i did grawl fractals and for almost the entire fight, my character couldn’t move at all or use the skills while i was being smashed. I don’t know if it was the game’s fault or mine, my ping rate was pretty much on the average i have of 270-280 and my fps wasn’t bad either, so dunno what was going on there. And i felt pretty bad for the group i was in, like i wasn’t contributing at all. For these reasons alone it would be nice to have a solo option.

I’m also in need of some dungeon tokens. And LFG tool isn’t showing anything, so yea, solo mode would be more than welcome. It’s funny thou, before HoT expansion, I didn’t bother with dungeons, because I always thought there’ll always be people doing them! How wrong was I

No ty. This is the main reason gw1 became an empty land.

There is alot of people that still do dungeons for fun and gold. Just be patience and make use of LFG tool.

Feel free to PM if you wanna run any path

Solo mode for dungeons? Yes please. Even tone down the elites to veterans at least. No one likes elite enemies.

As someone who is making legendaries, I find that I still need to step foot inside dungeons from time to time. It’s disgusting, I know.

The main issue I see is that Anet murdered the content but kept the requirements. The best solution would be to keep everything as is but increase the tokens per path to perhaps double what they are now. This won’t really mess with their economy and frankly gets the point a bit quicker.

Let’s be real. Who’s running dungeons? Legendary sellers and new players. Yes dungeons are soloable and maybe 2 years ago it was even “cool” to do so and some point of pride. I don’t give a kitten about soloing dungeons. I want my tokens and I want them fast. Team > solo mode. Tokens just need to increase and it will solve all these problems.
