In the article, it clearly states that "dungeons" are "chained instances". Only the Eye of the North dungeons and [[Tomb of the Primeval Kings]] are more than 1 instance. [[DoA]] may also be on the list because it is more than 1 area and you can go inbetween them without hitting a city.

These dungeons are the biggest waste of time. I've completed 10 and gotten one single diamond. Most of the garbage at the end is merchant fodder gold items like the Spiral Rod, Req 13 Curses, Skill recharge 19% and a Highly Salvagable mod. Who the hell wants to spend an hour and a half doing a glitchy, buggy dungeon to receive merchant fodder garbage at the end? Not me, I refuse to do anymore until they up the minimum reward? I hope someone who is starting to do dungeons reads this and saves themselves some time and effort by just doing a 30 second chest run into an explorable, it'll net you about the same reward.--[[User:Old Man Of Ascalon|<font color="Green">'''Old Man Of Ascalon'''</font>]] [[Image:25px-Poiso.jpg]] <small>([[User_talk:Old Man Of Ascalon|T]]/[[Special:Contributions/Old Man Of Ascalon|C]])</small> 05:40, 18 September 2007 (CDT)

I certainly hope that the Dungeons in Guild Wars is not the standard time-sink elements of other conventional MMOs (read WOW). Though we'll have to see it after the expansion is released. - Lundfoci

Ah, someone removed it, well, here is unofical dungeon list:

That mention of "Bloodstone Caves" makes me very excited. :D --Valentein 07:58, 8 August 2007 (CDT)

Confirmation needed:

Do dungeons reset the prize chest to be reusable? As in: Can you do Frostmaw's burrows and receive the final chest reward 2x?

thank you Mister Muscolo Charging Strike 03:42, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

You can repeat the dungeon quests as many times as you like, meaning, you can get the end of dungeon chest as many times as you like 195.7.34.253 04:47, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

You are missing the one when Kilroy takes you to get at some summit dwarf. it is in the 18 positions handbook received from herald at EoTN.


doesnt the Tomb of the Primeval Kings also count as a dungeon, technically? Twiggie 09:00, 29 August 2007 (CDT)
