i was thinking this was a bug, had to port to the city then have a warlock summon everyone... was really dumb
Wow, this is downright broken. I can't even imagine why they would do this.Honestly, the group finder should simply be disabled for all world content if this is intended because it does not work. Want to do any quests or bosses not intended to be soloed? Got to use general chat. Cross-server is broken.
Bad change. This is gonna turn me away from doing any type of world content
Was this ever in the beta or did they just bring it upon us with the release of Shadowlands? There's no way people would agree to implementing this, I'd like for them to at least explain their reasoning behind this.
Just such an enragingly stupid change."Join a WQ group and do them in order" my foot. Instead, I simply will not do any outdoor non-solo content for the entire expansion. Great job Blizz, if that's what you wanted.
I just don't get this type of change... Well, less incentive for me to do content now
this is literally the worst thign to do.Point of LFG is to get help when u need it.."oh hey i joined you but let me go back to the sanctuary and then coem back to join you"...this wont fly and you'd be kicked.
And who, exactly, asked for this?I've spend a few minutes here thinking of ANY reason this is a "good" change, and can't think of one
Straight up, I'm happy with this. It stops 100+ man raids from Ruin much harder to pull off. I'm almost certain this was a change made to combat groups like that, as they phase in with hundreds of people to lag out groups and lock up phases so they can outnumber and kill whatever Horde exists there. Likely plenty of other reasons too, like rare hopping and such. Aside from world bosses, I don't really see a huge issue with it.Some of you are acting like world quests are impossible to do solo, and you have no idea how to do content alone. Which, it is an MMO, and i get that, but I'd be blaming the groups of people exploiting how phasing worked, not Blizzard.
I'm... not a fan. My boyfriend and I were trying to play the Maw intro together, but were phased separately during the whole thing even while in the same group. You don't even have access to Oribos at this point because it's the starting intro. Feels like it just causes more headache and inconvenience than it does to help, really. I hope they find an alternate solution or something hopefully!
This is a bad change. The time needed to complete a single elite world quest is huge now.
what the hell is this blizz? i was just trying to kill a rare with my friend he got dc and when he came back he was in a diffrent phase,you kidding me?this change is stupidly wrong
Sharding is for out of game server efficiency and balancing, it is now becoming a game mechanic restricting the MM part of the game, by making it harder to form adhoc temporary groups.I would much rather have that part at the cost of people hoping for rares or resources than end up not forming small groups.
What's really enraging is:1) It's deliberate, that tooltip proves it.2) They hid it until the expansion went live.
This is beyond %^&*!@ed. Change it back.
This is the worst thing they invented for SL.. If I can't defeat a rare or it is not spawned in my zone why should I have to leave for a 1000year walk to then go back to the point where I was before >.>
