How does dungeon matchmaking work?

Dungeons use a queue-based system with ready checks. You join the queue for a specific dungeon and difficulty tier, get matched with other players, and must confirm readiness before the dungeon starts. Parties can also enter dungeons directly.

What is the room progression system?

Dungeons are divided into rooms connected by doors. Each room contains monsters or puzzles that must be cleared to unlock the door to the next room. Difficulty scales as you progress deeper, with the final room containing the dungeon boss.

How do dungeon difficulty tiers work?

Each dungeon has multiple difficulty tiers that increase monster stats, add new boss mechanics, and improve loot quality. Higher tiers require minimum gear scores and are designed for well-coordinated groups.

What are dungeon lockouts?

After completing a dungeon, you receive a lockout timer that prevents re-entry for a set period. This ensures fair loot distribution and prevents farming the same dungeon endlessly. Different difficulty tiers have separate lockout timers.
