What's not fun about running dungeons and learning mechanics for boss fights, dungeons have been a part of the game since launch! It helps you learn your class and teamwork, yet everyone just cries and begs for it to be made easier so they are gifted gear and progression,when they were first opened on this server gunbad took almost 3 hours per wing to complete ,it was challenging and fun and a feat to behold ,hey you want me to hold your hand and walk you thru it ,just ask ,as a previous post stated ,I've never done any of them before ! L2p, learn the mechanics ,spend the time and effort to gain the rewards
Reads human at least, kudos.
Although I disagree, simply because it's tied to PvP progression. If PvE items were good for PvE, and vice versa I'd have exactly zero issues with having dungeons require synchronized swimming whilst reciting The Republic from memory or whatever, but as is, from my experience at least, most people don't do dungeons for the challenging experience (as stated, I think the game in general just isn't suited to it, and mobs <<<<<<<<<(...)<<<<<<<<< players no matter how many triggers you put on them imo, also bugs), but simply because wards and the crest system makes PvE the quickest way to get your toons in decent shape for PvP (and once again I'll whine at PvE BiS).
Unless the systems around changes, I don't see why the dungeon experience shouldn't reflect that reality. Otherwise not many people will run the content, esp not pug. One might call it a player issue, but I don't see anything wrong with people wanting to PvP in what at least I consider a PvP game, and I for one want to see more geared toons in the lakes and SC's.

+1 and consider it my signature.
Previous iteration was much better and still a slightly annoying time sink for underwhelming gear.
This is my opinion, but the "get good" and "oh you're mad you can't speed run the dungeon anymore?!" Posts are a joke. This beginner dungeon has been in this server for almost a decade. And it still functions like poop, with or without intricate mechanics. Cut your losses and focus work elsewhere. The player base will thank you for it.

As a vet that used to help new players and gearing guildies alts.. GB is no longer ran, and we, as in vets of the guild i am in, tell others just get conq set now. We tell our new guys that as rn, GB isnt worth the headache as in less than 2-3 days, they are in sent/vanq gear.
That and lockouts need to go, or be able to run 2-3x a day before a lockout hits.

Support the petition in 100 %. Its waste of valuable human resources, that should be redirected straight to work on pvp.

+1 'starter dungeon' with no proper gear in most cases and you can get conq with often much better bonus with bit of luck in orvr gold bags anyway or few gold or crests you will make in hours or days counting weekly etc in. looking at my experiences lately many will dodge gb completely, pitty for the work and content. Pots and talis-quests are nice but some of them not repeatable and worthless, +22 are cheap on ah. and i can't remember the last run taking all bosses or completing any quests at all, soloed the needed stuff on champs to get it. most ppl will run with 5 redeye out of gb. overall more a turn off than on for pve once again.

Less people are running Gunbad, which is bad for the overall server health (especially for new players).

The previous version of Gunbad was played with a speed quest by a group of 3 people

Could be done as duo and so what? Its not a point. Its main purpose is to get conq ward as sub40/fresh 40, if its not fulfilling it then its bad design. Whatever you can preBiS/BiS solo/duo/trio farm there is irrelevant
