Ok, so today I was doing Gauntlgrym. I did the PVP and over both. Got both passes. When it came time for dungeon queue worked, but someone on the team decided to Ben idiot and declined. We kicked him, had a whole party, and for 20 mins we were in queue and it didn't even work. I wasted an hour only for the dungeon not to queue properly and me not being able to do a dungeon. According to zone chat, it happened to others too. Is Cryptic in the process of fixing this? Cuz I don't wanna do a Pve and a laggy PVP with people spawn camping for nothing. Is anybody else experiencing this? Btw I'm on Dragon.
Worst I've had is "The Event Has Ended" more than once, while in the queue with a full party, why oh why is there no "Enter" button!

Try another team layout, with a GF. Oddly, if you have a DC and a GF the queue pops faster. That's just my experience though, i may be completely wrong and it could be my luck.

That may be my playing time then. I mostly play during european prime time. The queues must be less crowded. It looks like the game can't make that many instances at the same time. Of course if you have an afk team not accepting, people declining, it makes it even longer.

I found restarting the queue will sometimes solve any random hiccups in situations like that.

When the queue lasts so long, can you blame them? I nearly fell asleep at the keyboard, myself. Some of the more enterprising people are probably alt-tabbed trying to find something more entertaining to do than stare at a screen and doing nothing for 10-30 mins straight. Maybe flash the taskbar icon or something, I dunno.

I play NW windowed to 1080p most of the time so I can browse while queued.

I have found it worst when you finish Fardelver quickly & re-queue the party with all 5 agreeing & back in the GG atrium.
So no issue with AFK or not accepting, the new queue just never pops!
But next time I will suggest/leave the queue and reapply to see if this does anything ( after 2-3 mins)

It's the third time in three days that I wasn't able to walk in crypt of fardelver. Why ? Because people put them in queue, and when the invitation pop they don't accept. Then the dungeon launches and we're two dps in the dungeon, we leave, enter queue again, and same story, wait 10min, click quick on the invite, to see the other members not accepting to enter. Why do they queue if they don't accept ? There should be a penalty system which forbid those who leave to enscribe in queue for 6hours or 24hours, for pvp and pve. That's the only thing which could prevent players for acting this way.

It seems to me like there is some kind of bug happening, not just people declining the queue. I was queing for Fardelver, and this happened like 10 times in a row where the box showed 2 people declining every time. And then it would put us in the dungeon without a full party and with the chest not unlocked. 2 times I have been with a party of 4 people total, who decided to do it anyway, and we kill the final boss, and the chest is not lootable, and it does not spawn a portal to exit the dungeon. This literally happened close to 10 times in a row (where it showed 2 people declining and would put me into the dungeon with less than 5 people total, and several of those there were 4 of us, even though it showed 2 people declining). So is it really 2 people declining the invite every time? Or is it more likely that there is some kind of bug happening here?

Hopefully today's patch (15 Aug) will fix this & make Grym a little less grim
