Instance matching for lower level instances?

I need to do the Bastion of Lok instance for quests but my character is now level 26 and it's not showing up in my instance matching anymore. How can I match into this instance?

Comments

  • Can not instance match but either try a group might work who is able or go to entrance and solo que basically. That is how i did mine
  • XP is so fast in this game they really need to let us match for instances for a wider range of levels, or have some mechanism where having the quest allows you to match regardless of level. Sucks not being able to use the matching tool for a quest instance. Is this how it is on PC too, or did they improve it there? Been so long since I played on PC I don't remember.

    Yes this is exactly the same as on PC. Once you're over it's level, it's decently easy to solo

    Then again, 99% of people on PC ignore quests cause they're not worth and it's slow. The other 1% do them for achievements and something to due while quein
  • The reason you cannot match-make is because you exceed +5 levels of what the dungeon requires (Or other similar math). The reason for this is so a high level cannot que up in matchmaking and suck the XP out of a dungeon from players who are an appropriate level to run it. You can always run the dungeon but teleporting to the entrance and going in manually but I suspect this system was designed to prevent players trying to level from falling victim to some A-hole going back 20 levels over leveled just to mop up his quest line.
  • Makes sense to keep people from matching in at such a high level, but with how fast XP is in this game (at least at lower levels) it's so easy to outlevel the instance before completing it they should extend it to maybe a 10 level range instead of just 5 for matching. Otherwise they'll just end up with a large percentage of the playerbase going back and soloing the content rather than grouping for it.
  • Was on another character just now, matched into Sinestral Manor at 31. Got disconnected partway through and crashed when trying to reconnect so group was on last boss by the time I got back into the game. Finished the instance at level 33 with several instance quests uncompleted. Now can't match into it again because I'm too high level. System is so broken.
  • So I make a point to complete most side quests as I go, most of them are on my way to the story mission so I just go wth and do them... this made me become level 28 before starting the blood will tell story, by the time I reached the manor I was already lvl 32, I couldn't instance match so I soloed the dungeon... its a hassle but wth, I killed the duke and duchess, then talked to Jelena in the duke's room, she just disappeared!!! so now I'm stuck. I reseted the instance but nothing is happening :-1:
  • By just disappeared I mean she did the teleport animation and now I can't find her, went downstairs and all, nothing... :astonished:
  • I high level character running a dungeon shouldn't cause others to get less XP. That would be a simple solution. Things may be far easier for the group, but would that be horrid?
  • edited September 2018
    Many other games manage this by scaling players down (and/or up) in instances to level everyone out (somewhat)
  • Try asking for someone to run it with you 'for story quest'. If I see that in chat I'll run with my 65 priest cause low lvl dungeons literally take 10 minutes with a 65.
  • I wish it was easier to communicate. I would consider doing this for others with my lvl 65 mystic. I would love the same in return from others, though any rush to level is almost over now. I got to 33, but I was not going to do without sleep to get the other levels.

    At least the title for 30+ is decent.
