Hi

I was wondering if its always hard to find groups at all lvls in the game.  I have a few toons from lvl 10-35 and i can not find a group at all with any of em.  Is it easier to group at higher lvls?  I have played this game on and off since launch and one of the reasons I keep leaving is due to this.

 

Thanks

it can be an issue

will also vary depending on your server and playtimes

 

Ive personally havent had problems getting a dungeon group under level 50  (and no - not with guild)

but it can be different for anyone

 

on my server, Blackburrow

the best method is to use the 1-9 chat channel to recruit for dungeons

-- and having the LFG flag "on" doesnt hurt

The main reason you can't find groups is because the game is made so that soloing quests is faster leveling than grouping (similar to WoW). Even if you did have 20 people in your level range online, MOST of them still will not group with you because soloing is faster.

I've never had trouble finding a group and I've been playing for years. Remember to use the lfg tool.

This isn't true.  I am helping a buddy of mine level up and if I mentor him and we do a dungeon he dings so fast it is rediculous.  I did runnyeye with him and we didn't even finish it but he got two levels in around an hour.  He wants to group all the time because questing is too slow for leveling :P

Well it's different when you're being mentored. If you are in a group of people without a mentor, you might as well just solo quests, unless you are in the group to get some loot off a group mob or some AA points.

Mentoring is good but it isn't that much.  Really having a good group doing group mobs and knocking group quests out along the way can't be beat.  Not that you can't get good xp soloing and I'll add soloing is pretty reliable where if you are in a bad group the xp can be aweful.  but get with some good people and the xp will fly in so fast you won't even notice that you have just leveled.
