For the past 3 days I’ve tried every night to get a group together for Sorrows Embrace, one of the less popular dungeons. I usually sit in LA for 20-30 mins looking for a group in /yell. Nearly everyone is running AC, CM, or CoF. Has anyone else had trouble trying to get a group together to do less popular dungeons?

Is it just a fluke that I can’t seem to get a group together? I mean there is no incentive for people to do unpopular dungeons unless they like the look since you can easily farm AC and get gear with the same stats. It doesn’t help that Sorrows Embrace gear isn’t that popular.

I know there are people out there who want to run the unpopular dungeons, but we are probably a lot smaller in number and spread across the servers. A LFD tool would help immensely in trying to get a group together. I seriously forgot how annoying yelling “LFG” for 30 mins is, it feels so archaic.

Try using /map or /guild instead of using /yell.

I always ask my guild, which has around 100+ people online during peak times. I was also under the assumption that /map and /yell were the same thing, since /yell talks to everyone on the map.

/map and /yell might be the same thing, but I am not exactly sure in this game. To me /say would be nearby, /yell would be farther then a say, but /map would be the whole map.

Maybe they are aware the issue with people having a bit of trouble getting others to do dungeons. Perhaps that is why its this months monthly achievement.
