If I could start an elite dungeon by myself (very slowly and one elite mob at a time) and then have the possibility that players would join to help me, and then even if some left along the way, others could join and helm me finish, then I would be spending half my time there. Unlike most players, I have tons of patience. Problem with the current system is if I start doing an elite map by myself, it gets locked and there's no way I will be able to beat the boss by myself.
I remember in PL many players used to do the mount fang dungeons by themselves, and then PM their friends "free boss" so others would join to help fight the boss and get the easy/fast loot. It would be nice if that was possible in AL.
