Solo dungeon runs??

[stretch]

So usually these are absolute cake. A few seconds to a minute.
I just did the 'Altar of Blood' single and it was absurd.
1st boss 25min
2nd boss 19min
3rd boss 12 seconds

So I recently hit lvl 32 and am down in the dinosaur area and everything there is generally a lot more hp so I was wondering is there some major weapon or skill ie DPS upgrade that I might have missed? I have purple gear and 900 Gearscore but my blade is old. The last 3 epics I have gotten have all been exactly the same score.

So is there something I should be doing to massively increase my DPS as a Crusader? In the dungeon the yard trash was like 3 hits and it vaporised but the bosses.... 2.5M hp and once they went berserk that halved my damage output on them.

Any advice? I don't really want to invest huge amounts into upgrading weapons that I am just going to outgrow really fast.

What is your build? Have you picked a blessing and skills which work together with the blessing of your choice? I am relatively new to the game and have tried all classes so far till level 18. I have been enjoying the Crusader class as I really find the idea of a tiny warrior funny and cute.

Just recently I have been trying to build my Crusader based on https://youtu.be/i3bI2XA5VJo?si=mcPqfo3hrhQUFAqZ

The youtuber also demonstrates another popular build, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlCDtoA28Xs&ab_channel=DirtyHotte

Cheers. I will watch those.
I was doing really well until I hit the new region 30+. I went from being happy and effective to no good instantly.
When games release new levels and content sometimes the difficulty scales up to match the new items/loot/skills released with that update and I guess I wondered if this new area was like that. Is there some skill or loot or something that came with that area that I need to find or do?
Even the yard trash just suddenly seems like group content. It's the disputed area which I assume means open PvP or something?

I have high survival levels but now my DPS is just non existent relative to what I am up against. Still using the lvl 18 epic blade I got from the first areas loot chest but it's upgraded a bit more now.

I think my blessing and skills are OK but I shall see what those videos say.

I just don't get dungeons and how the first 2 bosses have 2.5Mhp and the third one has 3395hp. So weird.

Thankyou.

Cheers. Yeah I figured my problem.
Gear. My gearscore was too low and there is a big penalty for that.
Watching one of that guys videos I saw the marketplace and I picked up a legendary sword cheap which turned things around. Got a few more legendary bits (although they aren't upgradable ones) hanging on to boss kills and it's much easier now.
Still doesn't explain how they scale dungeon bosses though.
I don't really like group stuff so loot from dungeons is a little scarce.
I am trying the Moon build he shows but still need to unlock the class skills fully for that.

Glad you figured it out!

dont you still have to have 5 ppl in q for most dungeons to pop? I havent played in a while so Idk what's changed, all I know is a lot changed for the worse and the devs like to ruin games and completely ruined this game too. pretty sure there is almost nobody playing anymore so..
lmk if you're able join lvl 35 or 40 dungeons solo now.
I read that they added a solo dungeon option so I went to check it out but it seemed to only be for story or one time quests or whatever, something that nobody cares about

Hi. When you first qualify for a group dungeon you get one attempt at doing it solo. Or maybe get to complete it once solo I am unsure. But once done you no longer have the quest flag allowing you to enter the solo version. So yeah you can do it solo but it's a dumbed down version for sure and at least so far it appears it can only be soloed once.
Maybe there is some timer I have not seen?
I am only 33 so I don't know about higher dungeons.

get A weapon Attack power gears from market , use valor blessing of crusader, skill wise you need to use shout skill to get 80% instant free critic rate and then use final strike skill hits hard . Jungle area is huge upgrade in mobs hp and gearscore after killing gideon.

Also that video of youtube is old. They changed crusader ,so now valor blessing is the best dps
