I'm not on Tegan, but will point out that you'll probably have an easier time getting a group at level 50. From what I see on agathon, most PW players are level 50.

 

Yes, level up to 50, it only takes a few days, then get a costume that hides your cape so people won't see you're a noob and kick you from the group
I tried doing q1 with one of my mages, level 42 or something. And in a group of 5 level ~40 players
Let me tell you, it was painful. With my 50 ranger I kill most mobs in 2-3 shots, it feels very easy now.
But with this noob level 40 mage and a very weak group it took us about 40 minutes just to clear 1/3 of the first map in Q1
The mobs seemed like they had huge hp for our tiny dmg (I had about 400 dmg on the mage I was playing at that time).

These dungeons seem very easy to the players who have been playing this game for many months (or years), but for the 3 week toons they are impossible.

 

ROFL!

 

The scaling with group size is a little off. I pretty much only solo the pws with my dk because of that.

Its actually easier for me to solo mortis (i usually kill him in around my 3rd banner of war on blues). I have no problem staying mortis solo with blues (3x rageful swing followed by mws reheal), but needed to move up to purples in a 2 player group. Even still, wasted 120 in the group reviving.

 

For whole map farming I like to play in a full group because I can setup for max dmg and crit with very low hp and armor. Because we are 5 people, we will share the dmg between the team members and there are also many skills: vortex, thicket, many stuns, aggro from the tank, aggro from guardians etc. which are very useful to slow down the mobs and allow me to blast the mobs out of existence.
And because I setup for max dmg, I actually kill the mobs about as fast as killing solo (well sort of) if I shoot explosive arrows in vortex, the mobs die so fast, even with the scaling thing, I do 20-50k dmg with ES or something like that.

It's ok if the group is weak as long as I have at least 1 other good player in the team who knows how to play and who puts vortex in the right places and a decent tank who uses aggro.

 

Well thank you so much for the tips. I will grind my way to lvl 50 then hehe
