I like running dungeons. I am looking to establish/create a static group of 5 or 6 (in case someone is not around) people do run through dungeons at night (for me Central US).
I am very experienced with some paths but have done others only once or twice (or never). I want to run through them all and master them. Do the easy (fast) tours for money and then do a less common one or another path to the same dungeon if someone needs the tokens for whatever.

Requirements:
Knowledge of your preferred class – Level 80(s) – zerker – at least a few pieces of ascended gear. Desire to finish the path quickly. A desire to run the less common paths occasionally for fun (but still quick). At least partial availability throughout the week (more on the weekends).

My resume:
Listens when I am learning something. Wants to succeed.
Level 80 all zerk ascended warrior (GS, Axe / Mace) 30, 25, 15. (Have level 80 guard, thief, and engineer but not a lot of good knowledge on best uses of those classes but can swap if needed)
AC p1 (hundreds) – p2 (many times / late 2012) – p3 (many times / late 2012).
CM p1 (couple) – p2 (once) – p3 (none)
SM p1 (hundreds) – p2 (a few) – p3 (a few)
TA – F / U (a few), others paths once.
CF p1 (millions) – p2 (a few) – p3 (once)
COE p1 (a few) – p2 (once) – p3 (once)
Arah p3 (once) – no other path.
Fractals (level 23)

It is hard to get a group if you aren’t experienced in a path as I seem to be the only one that doesn’t join a path if they say (experienced only).

People say to join a dungeon guild but that is so easy to say and not to do. There are only a couple of real ones – be a dungeon master – although that doesn’t mean what it should. When I get the title I want it to mean what it says. You have to be experienced to even join these groups but you can’t get (good) experience in some paths without already being in a group.
I do not have any comms (TS / Vent / whatever) but that is something we should get. I can get one setup if we need if someone else does not have one available already.
Send me a message or whatever and we’ll get this started.

Please add me for a trial run. If necessary, I can book a Dungeon Teacher to help us updated with the current meta.

By the ways, I’m playing zerker elementalist. I have experiences in AC, TA and a few times in CoF, CM and Arah. I need to learn more about CoE, HotW and SE though.
My playtime is evening in EST.

Will do. I’ll get with you this evening and run through a few. We’ll see what our strengths and weaknesses are. Seems you may be familiar with some paths that I am not and vice-versa.
If you can book a ‘Dungeon Teacher’ for an unfamiliar path – great. I want to learn the mechanics of a path though as well so if ANET changes stuff around in an update we won’t be left hanging. Knowing where to stand is great but we should know how the mechanic works so if it changes we can adapt.

There are many guides on the web too. If you want to take a path that is somewhat unfamiliar to look at one of the online guides first:
http://gw2dungeons.net/ – a good written description. I’ve found it helpful to read this before watching the path on youtube.
http://www.youtube.com/user/TurboDzan?feature=watch – the youtube channel of a guy who posts here a bunch named Nike!. Lots of solos and other stuff, but if you look there are good run throughs. Also great build info.
There are actually many good dungeon walkthroughs. Just search around a little.

I’m surprised at how few people know Coe. It’s such a great dungeon, and all paths are comparable in time and effort. If I was able to play at night, I’d join up, but as I’m very rarely able to play anymore, I can only say GL. I recommend Coe. Hehe.

You don’t know me.

Been looking for such a group myself for quite some time. I joined a dungeon running guild recently, but that didnt help much as nobody ever reps it so planning runs is a bit complicated. I run dungeons on my ele (30 0 10 10 20 s/d, might/fury stacking and conjure weps), and im baffled at the amount of pugs that have no idea how to use fgs/ice bow efficiently. Especially in TA and COE, every fiery rusher can speed up the run by 10-15% (2 eles in COE = 4 fgs = 50% faster runs).

My experience:

AC p1 (hundreds) – p2 (once) – p3 (hundreds).
CM p1 (once) – p2 (a few) – p3 (once)
TA – U (hundreds) F/F (dozens), F/U (dozens)
SE p1 (hundreds) – p2 (once) – p3 (once)
CoF p1 (millions) – p2 (once) – p3 (once)
CoE p1 (dozens) – p2 (dozens) – p3 (dozens)
HOTW p1 (once) – p2 (once) – p3 (once)
Arah p1 (once) – no other path.
Fractals (level 44, ran 49 a few)

I can teach how to COE, once mastered with a group of fgs-savvy people its no longer than AC or TA. I’d like to learn HOTW1, CoE3 and CoF2, I know they can be spedrun but never really bothered with em. I’d also like to finish up Arah for the DM title but I refuse to pay for it, and every other party asks for experienced.

I’m lucky to have a vet teach me how to melee Lupi and we finish the path at the end of the lesson. You’re welcome to jump in if available. Whisper to Iris Spellsinger so we can arrange a group.

To LittleLepton: I had a trauma of my first time going to COE way way back long time ago. It’s only recently when my friend held my hands through the submarine path that I started to be into it. Will take your recommendation and get it into my rotation.

If you need someone to help with dungeons, i would gladly help you with them. I could show you how to do every dungeon except TA Aether, which i had only done once.
