How to enter an endgame dungeon once.

  1. Reach Level 60.
  2. Max out your faction rank , by grinding rep.
    3.level your stonecutter skill to 200 , and your arcana to make stonecutting faster.
    4.grind major corrupted breaches for hours , for mats that you will need to craft the key.
    5 Grind or buy the other mats for the key ( will cost around 10k in total)
    6.Meanwhile grind your watermark with elite mobs and chests for about a month so the dungeon loot has a small chance not to be (poor quality ).
    7 Craft they key and craft or buy the consumables that you may need (hp pots, repair kits , protection and dmg pots) can go up to 2k gold.
    8.have enough azoth to fast travel close to the dungeon , congratulations you are ready to do a SINGLE run of the dungeon. (For each next run repeat steps 4 to 8).

Or just you know , buy a nice item from ah for 2 to 5k gold , and dont do any of that.

do you see any problems here? Maybe?

You know this was written in a sarcastic way , but every bit of info is a fact and correct .
so it could legit serve as a tutorial . Lets not look at casuals or hardcores . just your average player wanting to do dungeons , he will come across this post or any other legit tutorials , which will give him the same steps , how far do you think those players will get ? i would say most will just give it up at step 3. . and those who transit to hardcore will move on to next steps .

and the few players who make it all the way will still face the problem of to many mats needed which you are addressing? Do you think lowering mats by 1 or 2 here and there will fix this ? Most people will not get to that part at all . Please reconsider your approach to dungeon key system and should there be one at all . Unless you are trying to keep just a small dedicated player-base . which is not the case .

And then you use your orb, start dungeon and server go down due to unexpected maintenance

I’m just playing this still hoping things get better, because I can’t do anything else in this game, everything has a huge barrier in pvm.

And let me correct my own mistake right away . i posted a problem , but no potential solutions . So lets go trough the Steps together , shall we ?
Step 1. (Good , reasonable)
Step2.(Can work , but its undercooked and pointless right now , if dungeons had difficulty levels (hard , brutal , mythic) ( you could put the mats for each one , under a corresponding faction rank,that would make it more acceptable)
Step3.(bad, drives people away, possible solution : make it need 100-150 stonecutting max , and instead of crazy legendary mats , just make it 100-150 motes which can be grinded within a hour , 1hour of grinding 1 hour dungeon . and you would still have that connection to trade skills and dungeons .

step4.(not needed at all , remove , it could be used as a system for a weekly raid or something grand like that)

step5. solution is in step 3 , skip .
step6. Can work ( but needs a lot of work , if you really really wanna go with this watermark system , then make the watermark a fixed thing where once you get X of gloves , next one is 100% an upgrade , let us track that in an menu for clarity. instead of random luck based system .)

step.7 (fine for the most part , but if you insist on a key system , the grind for it has to be cut down in a major way , step3)

step.8 (Can work , but to make the azoth system fit better it needs to be un-capped , the current cap serves no purpose other then to time-gate players , and take away fun from players , uncap it .

That is it , with just those simple solution you can meet us (the players ) half way , and bring back some good-will for the game . Thank you for reading .

As long as people are farming their GS and sell cheap items, I feel no need to do the same.

I get you , if they want (just get gold and buy items) to be one way of gearing yourself . Then they need to balance out the dungeon systems and other gearing methods , like you said if you can just buy the items why do anything else then grind some gold.

Or you are on a low pop server and the few people that tag along are incompetent.

Make dungeons free you are excluding a massive part of the game to many players.
