Dungeons comes in three flavours.
Normal: Each zone, up to Transylvania, has a dungeon which is in line with the difficulty of the zone. Some people run these for story, some for gear, and some not at all. You outgear them soon enough.
Elite: Each dungeon has an elite version, Transylvania dungeons start at this difficulty. They are aimed for people in Green QL 9-10 gear. They all drop QL10 blues. Peoeple ussually does not run these more than once, they are simply a required stepping stone to get into
Nightmare dungeons. Same as elite, just harder. Drop purple gear and currency to buy upgradable purple gear.
Hardly anyone uses the group finder, people find it lacking. You can try for the normal dungeons, or you can /chat join sanctuary for normal and maybe elites.
For nightmare dungeons use Agartha LookingForGroup if you can handle the eliteism there, or /chat join noobmares for a more casual and relaxed way to do nightmares.
