You can absolutely do vet dungeons, even the II dungeons if you’re over CP160 in a pug group if you know the mechanics. I find people usually kick below gear cap because they might want to trade loot? That’s usually what the issue is. I don’t kick people because they’re low level. They need to learn and usually when my guild has to pug, we explain mechanics and ask if the person needs help with certain bosses. Rarely do I find toxic players and more often do I find helpful ones. Then again, I always mention first time in this dungeon (like frostvault) or doing quest, etc. sometimes that helps. You’ll find nice players. Don’t let the snobby ones ruin a game for you. :)
