Dungeons
From Elwiki
Dungeon play is the core of Elsword Online. You will find that each dungeon has its own part in the story and you will eventually get to play all of them. You can play a dungeon by yourself or in a party of up to 4 players.
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.
Difficulty
Click the appropriate button to change the dungeon's difficulty among Normal, Hard, and Very Hard.
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.
- If the minimum requirement is not met, the current number of players get matched up and receive a power boost for the missing members.
- If only one or two people are matched into a dungeon, two Epic NPCs will take the place of the missing party members.
Level Range
Your character must meet a dungeon's level requirements to enter through party matching.
Appropriate Item Level
Your equipped items must meet the dungeon's item level requirement.
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.
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!
Hero's Call
If a dungeon currently has less than the recommended amount of players queued, it may have an orange Hero's Call flag next to it to indicate that more players are needed. By selecting Start Dungeon while the text is highlighted orange and the Hero's Call flag is shown, one can answer the call. Doing so will reward the player a Heroes Coin at the end of the dungeon, 3 of which can be exchanged at Ariel for a random useful items.
Normal Dungeons
The most basic form of dungeon. These are the most common type of dungeons. They are essential for completing story quests and most side quests. They have average difficulty and are designed for all players.

Dungeons on Hero Mode
All monsters, minibosses, and bosses are considerably stronger than their normal dungeon counterparts. Their levels will be raised to cap for all dungeons and their stats are drastically increased. They can also move at nearly double the speed.
Buffed monsters are much more common. Some may appear with General status, like monsters in Secret Dungeons, while others may possess the effects of Elixirs obtainable from Gates of Darkness.
During Hero Mode, players are also given restrictions. Players can only use a maximum of 3 resurrection stones for the entire run. Mounts are restricted from this mode.
Rewards
While running dungeons on Hero Mode, items such as the Hero's Reward Shard and Hero's Reward Case can be obtained. The Hero's Reward Case can be found after defeating the dungeon boss at a certain chance. The chance is 100% if the boss is defeated on Very Hard mode.
These items can be used when Hero Mode officially updates after the 4/7/2016 maintenance.
