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

Dungeon Selection Menu

Difficulty

Some dungeons have multiple difficulty levels. For example, Henir's Time and Space can be accessed between Normal or Challenge Mode difficulties, 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 dungeons do not have any adjustable difficulty levels.

Dungeons that have an adjustable difficulty level will often carry distinct differences from one another. 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 unique boss drops can only be obtained on 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 in most cases.

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. The current highest Combat Power requirement needed to access all content in the game is 600,000.

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.

Party List System

Main Article: Party List System

On certain dungeons in the dungeon select window, a Find Party button will appear next to the queue button, allowing you to directly search for parties for that dungeon. This system can also be accessed from the Community tab menu, or the Tiny Spirit NPC. Parties that remain inactive for 60 minutes will automatically be removed from the listing. The option only applies to all dungeons in the follow regions, as well as the following special dungeons.

Normal Dungeon Regions Special Dungeons

Finding a Party

To find an active party, simply select Find Party in the dungeon select screen, or navigate the party system menu and sort by region or dungeon in order to see active parties. Additionally, you may select 'Available Party' to see parties that are currently not at maximum capacity. Upon selecting a party from the listing, you are given a list of players that are currently in that party, as well as the option to view their equipment and stats. To join a party, click Apply while having it selected. Keep in mind that you may only join at the discretion of the party leader, as they can decline your application if they choose to do so.

Creating a Party

In order to create a party, you must select Create Party from the party interface. From there you can set a name for your party, which is commonly used as a description to display information about the party to give applicants a clear idea of the type of party you're looking to assemble. Players who apply will show up in the 'Applicants' window, which shows their class, name, combat power, progress (for raids), and stats. You can select O to accept their application, or X to decline. Once you are ready to play and have finished assembling your party, click 'Stop Recruiting' in order to start the dungeon.

Tips and details

  • If you retry a dungeon while dead, you will be resurrected in the next dungeon with full mp, but 0 hp.


Trivia

  • Prior to the 06/04/2013 Hunting Fields update, you could only enter a dungeon while in the respective rest area for that region. For example, to play a Bethma dungeon, you had to be in the Bethma Mountains rest area to do so.
    • Additionally, after completing a dungeon, you would be placed in a lounge area, which was identical to the boss room of that dungeon.
    • Lounges served as an instanced rest area for your party in between dungeon runs, and were all inhabited by Helen.
