lfg abbreviations
p1/2/3 = Running the explorable path of the dungeon which is that option in the conversation to pick a path.
fw or fwd/up/ae or aetherpath The path names for Twilight Arbour, used instead of numbers for some reason.
exp = Experienced – this is vague, but at minimum have run the path before, know the usual places to stack and any encounter mechanics.
zerk/fz = Please wear berzerker (power/precision/ferocity) gear. Usually also assumes a build which is dps oriented and reasonably close to the meta-build.
Xk Ap+ = Have at least X achievement points, used as a screen to avoid really new players.
gearcheck = ping gear on joining, used in zerk groups to check you read the lfg message and are actually using zerk gear.
full run = Doing all paths of the explorable dungeon.
That covers the most common terms, is there anything else you’ve seen and don’t understand?
If you’re new to dungeons, join groups which are either all welcome or no details specified and say you’re new and check if that’s OK. This generally means people will be nicer and will know to explain encounters where you don’t just kill the enemies. Most explorable dungeons are run at level 80 for speed – if you’re below that, try story mode first.
Check out the dungeon forums/Noob guild there, they are friendly to new people who want to learn.
