    Dungeon Support

    Hi,

    I just finished the end of ARR, the quest "The Ultimate Weapon."
    Then I noticed you need to go through another set of quests to get to "Before The Dawn" in between, there are dungeons/trials. Are they also duty support like the storyline dungeons before the "The Ultimate Weapon"ending quest ?

    Any dungeon that is apart of the Main Story Quest line will have duty support. Any of the optional dungeons will not. The Hard trials and the Crystal Tower raids also isn't. Though don't take that as a sign for any manner of difficulty. As most are easy enough to it shouldn't matter how often you die. Most players probably won't even get mad or gripe about the deaths either. The game currently has the dungeons that unlock from following the main story up to the lv 57 dungeon in the Heavensward expansion flagged for duty support. The next batch to get this treatment will come with the 6.3 patch. Always remember to let people know your new to a fight as it helps set expectations. And try to be open to any advice given if someone feels you could be doing better. I do know there is at least one solo trial down the line.

    Most of the time, people will understand you are new because of the sprout icon, gear not being synced and because you are viewing a cutscene and there being a first time bonus message. It's usually at least one person's first time in a duty as well.

    Although the dungeons required for the main story have Duty Support available up to the level 57 quests, this only applies to content with 4 players. It will ask you to do some things with 8 or more players, but because there are so many players, they won't particularly be affected by deaths and they are used to a few people not knowing what they are doing.

    In other news, there is no technical debt from 1.0.
    "We don't have ... a technological issue that was carried over from 1.0, because ARR was meant to kind of discard what we had from 1.0 and rebuild it from the engine."
