So lately i been having trouble finding party for SSHM because everytime i would try to apply for a SSHM they would instantly inspect and look at my gear and then look at my PvE runs and if they see that i dont have skilled title on SSHM. They just instantly assume that im not skilled or a sh*tter and they end up declining.

And yes its true that i never managed to beat SSHM before on any of the learning runs, but every time i would come back to that boss and try to beat him again, every time i would learn more things about him and mechanics that would only make me become further skilled at it than even a player that has done it more than 5 times.

The general concept of skilled runs is pretty [filtered] because they instantly assume that if you never cleared that dungeon then you never actually tried or atleast learned about. Infact i tried clearing SSHM over 15 times with different learning groups and we just end up reaching the last boss, getting him to like 2-11 bars and then just wiping.And it was either because our healers died, a ping spiked or people dont understand how debuff pizza mechanic works.

And even though im ready now to do SSHM on a level of more experienced players. I could never find a party. Im constantly being discrimination either because i dont have full +15 imperator gear or im being discriminated because no one wants me to even believe me than im ready. But i am ready so please help me get skilled in SSHM.

I play Ninja on MT server and my item level is 421

    Find a guild. Use voice chat software. Make friends.

    Isn't iLevel 421 full +15 vm6? Surprising no one would take you just because you're unskilled. The only reason I could think of is people may think you just straight out p2w'd full starfall if you have unskilled in every single dungeon, or you have a reputation for under performing in dungeons.

    In any case, if someone doubts you, ask them to try you out and if you trap, feel free to kick. Make your own static or party, join a guild with similar skill leveled people, or make friends through pugging. There's lots of ways of finding people for end-game dungeons.

    The issue isn't that it's a personal attack on you. From the perspective of of the lfg creator, they see someone that isn't skilled. They don't know if you've attempted a million times or 0 times.

    You're best best would be to whisper them and explain yourself, but at the end of the day it's still their lfg. If they don't want you, they just don't want you. :(

    But like terraforming said, guild and friends is your best bet till you get skilled. Without Munekage on AV I'd probably still be unskilled because they carried my scrub [filtered].

    SSHM can be cleared on Slaughter +12 gear, but it must be properly rolled, with correct etchings, and perfect rolls on jewelry.

    That being said, if you were in TR, you would have more chances to find a group for SSHM. Lately i have seen a lot of groups in LFG that are training groups for SSHM.

    There will be more and more people who will do SSHM later. ATM, people don't want to take risk for trap party and waste a few hours in SSHM.

    There are not many PUG expert group. BTW, why do you even want SSHM for? EME have doubled reward from easier dungeon.

    You can try for static group. But, they will ingnore any dps without +15.

    1. find new guild or make a friend who do SSHM everyday.
    2. most of static group or PUG team will ignore dps without +15.
    3. do another dungeons. Only SSHM requires good team atm. You can try later when there are more expert people for SSHM.

    Now, people don't really care about New VM weapon. It's just too expensive to enchant +15. Master alka is 65g.

    Think of it from their perspective. Why would anyone bother to risk running with a potential clueless player? If I'm skilled, my main objective is to clear as fast as possible and grind out more runs in the shortest amount of time. I don't have time to bank on a player that shows no valid proof of being skilled a chance in my runs when all that matters to me is time. Selfish yes, but unreasonable? Not at all. No one owes you anything. And ill just ignore that stupid full+15 imperator requirement point you made because it's just not true.

    Basically, it's not because no one wants to give you a chance, its because there is no reason to.

    well then it will take you longer to find runs in the future since less geared players will be available to actually do this dungeon.

    i'm on MT and i'm in Wonderlust. pretty fun guild and some of us do HM content. you could apply here if you want.

    Just tell them that you have been to x% of the boss, and have been running it multiple tries, and if they think you are trap, they can kick you and get a skilled one in, saving the guy time.

    Another thing, you have more chance getting in the pt which people in there are not skilled yet. If you keep trying to get into a skilled pt, then it's normal that they might or might not accept you.

    Forget about random LFG for SSHM. Let it rot. MT has a lot of players who only want to play with the best, and expect everyone to have the "skilled" tag on a dungeon even before said dungeon is added to the game(yeah I know I'm exaggerating but you get the point. :p ) Find a guild that wants to do the same content YOU want to do and run with them. Leaving the old guild doesn't mean you hate them. People change guilds every day when the one they are in goes in a direction they don't want to go, so switch guilds.

    And yet i got declined by one tank who after inspecting me and was a rookie himself.

    You having more chance doesn't mean you having sure chance. At the end of the day, it's still their party. When you got to skilled, you would do the same most likely too. Just got to keep trying to apply and make friends.

    Maybe that tank was looking for a carry?
