Hi there, I have a bit of a dilemma and not sure what to do about it. I played to around mid 30's right after launch, then I stopped due to RL new job and house move, then I started playing again a few weeks ago.

Problem is I only ever did the first dungeon - Fungal Grotto, I tend to be a bit of a lone wolf in game and I just didn't get around to grouping for dungeons. I would like to do them though, so I decided to go back and do Banished Cells and Spindle Clutch thinking I could just solo the low dungeons and then group for the ones closer my level. Well of course this was when found out that the dungeon scales to my level.

So what to do now? I don't know if anyone would want me along with them, do dungeons scale to the group leader's level? and if I did find a group would I ruin it for them loot or experience wise? 

I thought I should maybe just forget the low dungeons and go ahead and start the dungeons that are around my level (lvl 40) but I can't find where to get the quest, will it not let me unless I complete the lower ones?

Any advice welcome, thanks.

Fear not fellow dungeoneer!  Even if you miss the chance to run them at your level, you can go back at any time.  In fact, they are run quite regularly by the guild!  Since you've been gone they have added what are called Undaunted Pledges.  There are two daily pledges, one is to run the veteran dungeons (vet level content), and one is to run the normal dungeons.  People of all levels like to run the the non-vet dungeons for the XP and the daily reward.  So, at some point in the future, there will be ample opportunity for you to run all the dungeons regardless of your level!

One thing I forgot about to mention about the pledges.  The minimum level to get the "normal" pledge quest is 45.  You will get a letter in your in game mail that will tell you what to do.  You can however still run the dungeons with the guild.  You just won't get the bonus quest XP at the end and the "silver" key.  Both Verve and Papo run the non-vet or "silver" pledge pretty much every morning.  I lead a scheduled event for the vet pledge every 8 days, but I am willing to run a dungeon pretty much every night.

I also run dungeons every now and then.  If you see @Ytterin on, feel free to ask.
At <VR1 I can solo your dungeons for you.  I also have low level alts, so I can hop on one, have the dungeon set itself to minimum level, and then swap to my main for you.

I've run lowbie alts with a pledge run even if my char could not get the pledge, I got the dungeon done.  The cool thing is that even if you go do the dungeon quest for the first time as a vet you still get xp out of it that goes towards leveling and CP.  There several family members that have wound up getting dungeon quests done at vet levels, too.  I know I have a VR2 alt right now that only has half the dungeons done, but I have an L40ish toon that has all but three due to a HUGE dungeon run four of us did just plowing through as many as we could until we called it quits a few hours later. ::chuckles::

The awesome thing is that the group lead makes the level, so it doesn't matter who is in the group.  Most of the XP comes from the questing not the mobs, though anyone within 5 levels above or below the mobs will get that little extra xp, as well.

So I have plenty of alts that need dungeons, so I know I'm up for them whenever and maybe once I get my schedule with hubby's new job and my playing more with woodburning and painting, worked out better I can be around to jump in these things or even run some myself.  Though I'd probably still end up doing it on the fly ad hoc like.  I've found committing a schedule in the last couple of weeks for the game is nearly impossible.  ::chuckles::

Don't mess with Mama Bear, I might hug you too tight. =D
