I dont know how its possible to design the RADQ in a way which is absolute HAMSTER. Ravenloft and MSP Party all night long. If you only have the choice between 4 dungeons its everything but fun. And how do you expect people with 25k Gearscore to get through a dungeon like Castle Ravenloft once all people arent aware of anything? No clue how to play classes/no clue which artifacts/for sure no clue of mechanics and so on....its depressing for both sides.....absolute hillarious!
Also....ive queued up for Valindras Tower as a tank lately and we had 2 Level 5 players in the dungeon. 1 DPS 1 Heal - lmao. My healing potions couldnt even save my HAMSTER. Ive wasted a lot. And for sure...we had 1 guy rage quitting - understandable. So this is how to motivate "new players"? If you think so you guys doing something blatantly wrong. Dungeons should only be allowed after you ve reached Level 20 and got some stuff from completing adventurers etc. (It obviously wont help either but Level 5??? COME ON!
Despite the fact that you have almost nothing - close to no impact as a Tank (not talking about COK - Stuff like that) why do you even force people playing a holy trinity when you put out DPS Gear n stuff which blasts trash mobs into oblivion?? Let players decide wether they wanna play with or without a tank and healer. If people decide to play with just 5 dps - its their own risk. *INSERT BUTTON or whatever*
Its ridiculous....queueing as DPS takes like 20-30 Minutes while its superfast on my tank. The only reason is - i cant make any difference in dungeons x) So there are clearly too much DPS in the game (Like in other MMOs) Why there are no real incentives (And im not talking about this lousy "Role Bonus"...to motivate players queueing as Tanks/Heals?
Infernal Citadel was just to complicated or what? And CR MSP isnt? In terms of newer or 25k GS players? I really dont get it....
I really dont know what you guys been talking at a company meeting....just start to play your own HAMSTER game!

Q. as dps ? Well i don't have problems with that. What's interesting. Lately i usually got into radq very fast as a dps so i don't even try to tank. 'till i finish my SH daily tasks i got into radq as a dps. Sometimes i can't finish even dread ring dungeon before "popup".
They changed it because you would get grouped up with 5 dps.
After that, the option to Private Queue was added where, as now, party composition was ignored. However until mod 11 or so, you still had to have the required party size for the content (5 people for a dungeon, etc...) In the mod 11 era, it was changed that you could private queue with less than a full group, as we still can.
Random Queues didn't get added until mod 12B and were explicitly set up to require the Public Queue meaning 1 tank, 1 healer, 3 DPS (per party of 5 in the content) although there is the bug with extra healers showing up that still persists. The reason the devs forced the Public Queue thing was because players found it easier to complete content with different party set ups and the devs didn't find that acceptable - despite the fact that they were the ones who made the game work like that.
When it comes to the normal dungeons they came out at a time when having 10k item level meant a lot. The average to do them back then was about 7-10k item level. As such you come across people from all levels doing them when you do those dungeons at random.
With the RADQ's they are much more complicated with their mechanics as you and your party can instant die in the final boss for those dungeons if you and your party don't do things right. That is why for RADQ's you need to be level 20 and have over 35k item level.
If you are a DPS looking to join RADQ's faster my advice would be for you to go to Protectors Enclave and request to join parties that are looking for players to join for RADQ's. Not only do you join parties faster but the parties tend to be better and more experienced then parties you join at random. I primarily play as a tank and this is how I always join parties as 9 out of 10 times parties formed this way can actually beat the dungeon and at a much faster time too.
