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.

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.

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.

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.
