the 3 man "leveling" dungeons are gonna drop epic items (salvageable armor) in each boss??? or is just like the current normal mode dungeons for pre-lvl 60 with just green-blue bosses drops??

    Regular versions of certain dungeons now only require 3 people and scale to the party members levels , the epic versions still require a full (lvl 70?) 5 man team ,it is in this blog http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/neverwinter/news/detail/9080823-dev-blog%3A-level-cap-increase

    Thanks, overlooked that, or didn't commit that to memory...

    Sounds like the good old CtA concept swapped over to a dungeon setting, and reduced to three participant.

    So I wouldn't _expect_ purple stuff to drop, apart from LoL & SoT maybe, where this can already happen now...

    ...heinous thought: Could it be that playerbase decline got to the point where finding / forming 5-ppl parties for non-farming runs has become kind of a problem?

    THose dunjons give nothing important, so, most people don't care about it. Even when there is enought people to do the dungeons, there is not enought wanting to group for it. That's why it is hard.

    That is exactly it, I remember having partial pre made with a couple people and waiting forever in queue.

    it's not population, but the queue system.

    I personally have auto-queued maybe 10 out of hundreds of groupings for dungeons. why spend ANY time trying to do the leveling dungeons when it takes forever because most people don't use that system?

    do you go to PE to group for leveling? nope, you stay in your zone and ask around, there's always people, but /lfg for a full 5 takes longer than if 5 individuals use the auto-queue, but no one uses it because it requires you to have 1 dc/gf, 1cw and 3 DPS. if 3 DPS can be auto-queued, they improved the system, if they're still requiring a GF and a CW and a DPS, you'll never be able to auto-queue. the DC/GF are the gate currently, self-group is the only way to go.

    LFG takes forever in zone chat too. 3-man dungeons may help a little but the lack of worthy loot and xp rewards still don't give them much value.
