Default Request for a guide about Dungeon difficulty

Edit: Thanks! But, why is Ciar basic harder than normal? Shouldn't it be the opposite?

Default It depends...

As stated above, it all depends on how you play and what type of build your char has as well as what you can handle. For example, mine is mainly melee with some magic and well...I suck with multi aggro enemies(currently training windmill, it helps a lot in bad situations). So for me, the order would be: Alby(duh lol), Rabbie, Runda, Fiodh(only reason it is behind Rundal is because of those bloody Gorgons >.>), Ciar, Math, and Barri (The only reason Coil, Peaca, and Ceo Island are not listed is because I havent tried those yet, but I heard that Coil and Peaca are cool for mass raids ). Also, the reason that Math and Barri are last is becase of a)they multi aggro a lot(and barri has imps ) and b) cant fight the golem that efectively/its annoying fighting the ogre warriors due to their immense hp. Well, I hope this helps you ^_^

Edit: Oh, and before I forget, I arranged them in what I think their difficulties are to solo. If in a decent party(4-5 tops), Ciar and Barri are after Alby...but trust me..the funnest time I had in a dungeon when a party of guildies and I raided Rabbie...epic windmill by a Metal Skeleton nearly knocked us all out and we saw the mini skeletons ^_^

Cool, Actually, I was wondering the same thing but was hoping there would be a table somewhere labeling the different levels of the dugeon in addition to which dungeon.

So a table in order roughly saying the difficulty of each one (basic, begginer, intermediate, etc.) and how they relate to the rest would be awesome.

I could make...a long list :O

From a solo, melee-oriented perspective:

Alby Beginner/Alby Normal (honestly, they're practically the same)
Ciar Beginner
Rabbie Normal
Ciar Basic
Alby Basic
Rundal Normal
Rabbie Basic
Fiodh Normal (Gorgons suck, but you usually see them only once per dungeon if at all)
Barri Basic
Ciar Intermediate*
Math Normal (Despite being stronger overall, poison kobolds don't multi-aggro unlike their goblin brethren)
Ciar Normal
Barri Normal (Imps...annoying)
Alby Intermediate*
Rundal Basic
Rundal Siren
Coill Normal (Try taking on three different sprite types as a melee character, I dare you <_<)
Math Advanced
Rundal Advanced (So...much...death)
[Imaginary dungeon to increase the difficulty scale]
[Imaginary dungeon to increase the difficulty scale]
[Imaginary dungeon to increase the difficulty scale]
[Imaginary dungeon to increase the difficulty scale]
[Imaginary dungeon to increase the difficulty scale]
Peaca Normal (Yes, it's that hard 8D)

*This is based on the average difficulty of all three Intermediate passes with an appropriate-sized group for each

I think that's all the dungeons, with the exception of Albey and any special-access dungeons (most of them are derived from an existing dungeon anyway). I also didn't list Fiodh Intermediate because I've personally never done it (hooray for not needing FB/AR pages!). Judging by what's in there though, I'd put it near the top of the list for difficulty.

Again, these are all based on MY PERSONAL OPINION as a melee-oriented character (with a little magic purely for pulling/countering purposes). I have no advice for other character builds.

Heres MY input. It shouldn't be TOO different from what the general public has to say, though most people would flip a few things around.

Alby Beginner
Alby
Ciar Beginner
Rabbie
Ciar Basic
Alby Basic
Ciar (Ciar regular is harder than Ciar basic because of those archers. Once you get powerful enough, you can push this up the list a bit)
Math
Runda
Barri (I put barri way out here because of those ogres)
Barri Basic
Rabbie Basic
Ciar Intermediate
Alby Intermediate
Runda Basic
Coill
Runda Siren
Ciar Advanced
Dugald Castle Basement and Sen Mag Castle Basement (both generally the same)
Math advanced
Runda Advanced
Barri Advanced (though this could be possibly easier than runda advanced... I'm not sure)
Alby Advanced
Rabbie Advanced
Peaca Basic
Peaca (because there are more mobs in normal peaca).

And then we move on to hard mode. Blargh.

Wow, those last few posts are great and exactly what I have been looking for. Thanks a lot Qaccy, Kitaek27 and Silhouette. This should help a lot in training.

I just want to pipe in with my thanks as well. I've been running Ciar Beginner and was wondering where to go!

Just want to point out that Rundal is actually a really easy solo. If you learn to ice-counter, you can take anything in there just as easily as Rabbie as long as you practice the flying sword multi-aggro rooms. Really not that tough, and Rundal gives amazing XP. :3
