New LFG System

I've noticed the same sort of problems starting that were still in the old LFG system

Tanks/Healers get TONS more groups

Time to respec the pally to a healer :o
 
Plenty of things I love about this new LFG system

1. No more "Link achievement" & "Link Gearscore" crap
2. You don't get saved to heroics no more if you do the Random Heroic option
3. You make a crap load of gold as every heroic on the random option gives you around 14g
4. You get 2 extra Truimph tokens using the system. Just by running a few yesterday to check it out I made 40 badges and this from a newly ding'd Druid. If I was to play hard for a weekend I will be full kitted in 246 gear and some other sweet items :)
5. I hardly had to wait anything longer than 5 minutes for a full group doing anything. And the groups are epic. Had not failed in one dungeon.
6. The disenchant option is AWESOME. (Although I have noticed it didn't work later on in the evening - Is there a limit to selecting disenchant as an option?)

With this new LFG/LFR system Blizzard don't even have to bring a new Expansion out soon as it has blown a new refreshing breath into WoW. I actually enjoy logging in again :)

Someone in your group needs to have the relevant enchanting skill for the option to be available.

If you do , and it was disabled then something went wrong .. <_<

ooooo So you need an enchanter in the group. That makes sense now.
 
The disenchant option only works if you have an enchanter in the group. :) Last night I got a lvl232 axe as a random drop that pushed my dps to about 5.5k on a mob. :D

A Player will not be placed in a group with people on his or her Ignore list.

I thought that was cross server as well.

I found this in the notes, seems ill have to look a bit further :D thanks for making me look again ;)

Ignore List: The amount of characters a person can ignore has been increased to 50. In addition, players on other realms can be placed on the Ignore list.

Yea I found that to be pretty cool. They'll place you in a group that you can do even if you don't have the achievements yet. Did the new dungeon on normal yesterday (***ked off and died twice with 1 wipe, but everyone was superfriendly because I never healed the instance before and the tank jumped into a fight he thought would be easy) and got the achievements, going to start doing heriocs

For someone who have had endless problems with guilds promising the sky and then nobody willing to help run dungeons for better gear, this is definitely awesome. Too bad for the guys who think they don't get picked often enough, but I'm glad I'm healer spec'ed ;)

Oh and 450 enchanting means I bring a lot more to a group now.

FYI, if you don't "Need" fast enough on an item the group will vote to DE the item. not sure if it was a bug at that point but had a nice Cloth chest piece for an upgrade to my gear and I couldn't need or greed it (only DE)

I thought the same but checked it very carefully.

The Disenchant works like a greed roll. meaning if you selected Disenchant it does a normal roll. If you won it will give you the disenchant item. But if someone else selected greed it and won they get the item. Need is still priotity number one and renders the rest of the roll fruitless.

Example:

You select Disenchant
Tank selects greed
DPS selects greed
DPS selects greed
DPS selects greed

There will be 5 rolls

If you had the highest you get the disenchant item. If anyone else wins the roll they get the item and no disenchant. And if anyone needed they whould have gotten the item above all greeds.
 
I got into a group last night with guys from other realms and we did all 3 the hc's and was it a pleasure no 1 was moaning or complaining we all had fun and got trough it easily
 
I managed to get the ahole group last night, most abusive healer of ever telling me with large amounts of expletitives how to tank. Funny it never occured to him I was letting him die on new content cause he was an idiot...

Easy - /Add to ignore

You never group with him again. I love it :D
 
ditto everything everyone else said.

I love this system, as a healer didn't get much grief. When the tank is good it is awesome, when the tank sux you may as well toss the group.
