Grouping?

[dreamer05]

What level does grouping start? When does dungeon finder start? The story is nice but I hate soloing and questing.

You can queue / group for any dungeon starting at the first one at level 20. But you might not find many players to party since getting max level is super fast andf easy and most people jsut burn through it.

Right now real grouping starts at level 60 because the devs made every dungeon below that level pretty much obsolete. People just rush through story to reach 60 so they can do end game. Sadly many MMOs go this route after being around for a few years, so this isn't the only one to do this.

That's sad to hear. How long does it take to get to max level?

max level maybe years but just 60 so you can party up
if you skip cutscenes and dialogue 30-40 hours if you rush

if you watch it and read 60-65 hours
keep in mind that raids and dungeons that most people do still are going to be far from your reach even after getting the level you need to party up

since level doesn't matter as much as gear

Eh sounds like not my thing. I prefer being able to level up with others. too bad, it's a beautiful game and the combat mechanics seem fun.

You can solo up to 60 HM12 through regular story. Can take like 50 hours. This does not mean you can't find a friend to do the stuff together. Only some instances are mandatory solo. The rest is optional and can be done either solo or with partners, but the content is so easy that most people just solo it. So if you want to party up, see if you can find others starting out and do the stuff together. PuG-ing may be much harder, though.

 

The real end game starts after you finish story and some solo side quests like Temple of Succession. From all of this, you get enough gear to be able to party up for the current starter dungeons that are part of the daily challenges like Naryu Sanctum, Irontech Forge, and Ebondrake Lair. Moon Refuge and Celestial Basin are also nearly mandatory spots for newbies to farm in. You can do those solo or with a party. PuG-ing these may be easier. But you must advertise yourself through the chats to find people.
