Dungeon play is the core of Elsword Online. Dungeons are progressively unlocked as you level up, and have an associated storyline upon completing them. Dungeons can be played solo, or with a party of up to 4 players in most cases.
Basic Information
Difficulty
Some dungeons are associated with certain difficulty levels. For example, Henir's Time and Space can be accessed between 2 difficulties: Normal or Challenge, while Debrian Laboratory, El Tower Defense, Crimson Tower of Howling Flames, Never-Ending Darkness, and Crimson Cradle of Flames can be accessed between Normal and Story Mode difficulties. All other Normal Dungeons, Secret Dungeons, and other Special dungeons, such as Ereda Island and Add's Energy Fusion Theory, as well as Event dungeons, do not have any adjustable difficulty levels.
Dungeons that have an adjust difficulty level, often will carry distinct differences from one another. Henir's Time and Space will grant more rewards in Challenge Mode, but disables consumables and resurrections, while normal mode is just the opposite, but with slightly less reward. Dungeons with a Story Mode option will have their difficulty and entry requirements significantly decreased, along with removing resurrection limits where applicable. However, titles and boss drops can only be obtained in Normal difficulty.
Players
All dungeons possess a recommended number of players to play. However, it is also possible to enter and complete a dungeon without satisfying the recommended number.
| Dungeon Type | Dungeon | Recommended Number of Players |
|---|---|---|
| Normal | Normal Dungeons | 1 ~ 4 |
| Secret Dungeons | 3 ~ 4 | |
| Hall of El | 1 | |
| Elrianode City | 1 ~ 3 | |
| Crimson Tower of Howling Flames | 7 ~ 8 | |
| Never-Ending Darkness | 7 ~ 8 | |
| Crimson Cradle of Flames | 7 ~ 8 | |
| Special | Henir's Time and Space (Normal Mode) | 1 |
| Henir's Time and Space (Challenge Mode) | 3 ~ 4 | |
| Heroic Dungeon | 3 ~ 4 | |
| Ereda Island | 6 | |
| Add's Energy Fusion Theory | 1 | |
| Dimension of Sinister Intent | 1 | |
| Twisted Time and Space - Fahrmann's Peak | 8 | |
| Event | Velder Academy Library | 1 |
| Velder Academy Athletic Meet | 1 | |
| Velder Academy Concert | 1 | |
| Dessert Cafe | 1 | |
| Guild | Hungry Ghost | 2 ~ 6 |
| Bump Bump Moby! | 2 ~ 6 |
Party Matching System
Dungeons are best played with a party! While logged on to the game with your character, click the Dungeon button at the right side of the screen. This will open the dungeon selection interface which lets you choose a particular dungeon and its specifications, as well as initiate party matching.
Players
The indicated number of players for a dungeon is the minimum number of players the party matching system requires before starting the dungeon instance.
Level Range
Your character must meet a dungeon's level requirements to enter through party matching. Being one level behind the minimum can be possible to access the dungeon with the item level being the only restriction.
Required Combat Power
Your Combat Power must reach the dungeon's combat power requirement in order to enter.
Starting a Dungeon
Pressing Start Dungeon or the F8 key will launch the party matching system. The system will try to create a party with up to 4 members of different classes who selected the same difficulty level. You may also choose Start with current members to go immediately into a dungeon by yourself or with your current party members. Note that you will not receive Heroes Assemble Buff if you choose this option.
Quest Marker
In the maps showing dungeon locations, the Q icon will appear over dungeons where you may accomplish tasks in order to complete a quest in your list. Let Q drive your adventure!
Heroes Assemble Buff
When using the party matching system, you will received a buff based on the final number of players in the party when the dungeon begins. This buff is maintained if you select Retry at the end of the dungeon, so long as you're in a party of 2 or more. If you are soloing, the buff will not carry over when retrying, and you must queue again in order to regain the solo heroes buff.
