Why is my damage so low in dungeons

CMLTELD7FXCMLTELD7FX
in PvE Discussion
I currently have three characters one is a ninja (lvl 46) a sorceror (lvl 48) and a archer (lvl 29) and I feel the same thing with all characters, and that is I deal hardly any damage in dungeons but only in dungeons in quests my damage is quite high. I don't get it I keep all my abilities upgraded as I level up and same with my glyphs but I still feel like I do a lot less damage than everyone else in the all the dungeons.
Please help

    Are you using the avatar weapons? The ones with the appropriate level for the dungeon? If not you lose on a lot of critical hits, and that is the main source of damage.

    Ping and buffs also make a difference, especially with archer. Correct me if I'm wrong b/c I still don't know if the revamp made it less ping-dependent. If you have the same gear as someone else but your ping is higher, then you'll lose some DPS.

    Make sure you're using Avatar weapons in addition to the correct crystals while also hitting the back of the mobs/bosses. For crystals dps generally go Savage, Bitter (Spiteful for range), Focused and Pounding. The high damage others do comes from the free crit of the Avatar weapons that are then multiplied by the crystals.

    I think one thing to note, also, is that in dungeons monsters are considerably harder to kill while open world quests mobs go down in just a few slices. So you may feel like you're not doing any damage, but in dungeons mobs are meant to be taken on by a party, not just one person.

    But yeah avatar weapons make a lot of difference, so does enchanting your weapon. And crystals. Basically what the others said.

    enchanting low level avatars is easy. Until I don't know why people still can't even get their gear to +6 the second they get their avatars.

    Back/Front crit crystals based on your classes (your classes are all dps so spiteful, savage, focused, pounding for weapon crystals except for ninja where you use bitter instead of spiteful) are important.

    Also use the elite nostrum thing. It is infinite.
