Guild Wars 2

Its not even as good as the old GW interface where you could browse groups. As it stands the feature is totally useless.

How can they make every other aspect of the game a convenience except for PVE grouping? PVP has hotmatch ques, WvW you just jump into, but when it comes to grouping for a dungeon, you’re relegated to shouting in map chat for hours. Oh wait, that’s before you get scolded for “excessively messaging”. So its mostly just sitting there pleading for members every 5 mins or so.

And yes, these things are better done in guild, but even guilds sometimes need to fill a slot.

The lack of a proper dungeon finding que is baffling.

The lack of a proper dungeon finding que is baffling.

Both my friend and I almost stopped playing after we hit 80 and this is the main reason. We went from playing as much as we could, to barely getting on.

It is not fun to travel around trying to find groups for dungeons. Waypoint cost is high and it makes it further fustrating. People don’t look for groups in towns much, so you have to go from zone to zone hoping to find a group.

It is crazy that there is not a better LFG tool. Especially in a game that was suppose to be very accessible.

Yeah that’s the oddest part, they made every aspect of crafting, group content, gear grinding and more accessible, but dropped the ball on dungeon queing.

And yes, the old argument, “just do it with your guild” only works sometimes as outlined above. Sometimes you might just want to play alone or do other things while not organizing a group. There are any number of reasons why LFG tools are just as valuable to players as there are arguments about including them. And in the end, if you don’t like LFG tools, just don’t use them – they’re optional.

Hopefully this is something that they address.

Also, if you flag yourself for LFG as a Mesmer and go PvP, your enemies can more easily find you as you’re the only one who is tagged and not your clones.

Just FYI for all you Mesmers out there who go LFG and forget about it.

@ Red. LOL! I didn’t know that.
