2h+ Queue for SFK

As an Alliance, I try to run Shadowfang Keep while levelling but it takes hours to ever pull a group together.

It is completely unacceptable to expect a player to wait for hours in order to play the game. I pay for my game and should be able to play it.

Dungeon blues give you a massive boost to levelling when compared to quest greens. This puts me at a disadvantage to other players.

Don’t even tell me to re-roll Horde because that’s not a solution.

The game needs cross-realm LFD for levelling dungeons. This change literally doesn’t even affect you.

Edit: This post was hidden as “trolling”. For clarity, it is satire: I am challenging anybody to discredit my post without discrediting same-faction BGs. However, advocates be like

Edit 2: Thank you CMs for restoring this post. I appreciate you probably don’t enjoy dealing with threads such as these but I respect your decision to facilitate the debate.

This is some top tier sarcasm, but I don’t think you can compare grouping for a dungeon with pvp queues.

But why not?

clearly the answer is to allow alliance and horde to group together for dungeons. that’s a TBCC kind of solution

They should 150% do this in retail for all instanced content

I just want the LFG BC feature already. It makes finding a group much easier.

why not?

it’s the same thing except one is automated and the other is not.

You answered your own question, nice work

Not really - they’re both player created problems at the end of the day. Crying about not being able to run a dungeon because it’s hard to find a group is the exact same as crying about not enough alliance to fill your BG queue.

In both cases it’s a lack of player interest. Nobody wants to run RFK and Alliance clearly don’t want to queue for BGs. Both player problems.

I think they are entirely different, and you know they are entirely different. :slight_smile:

Completely agree.
We are paying to play a game and we should be able to find groups.

As a rogue, I’m locked into only DPSing in PVE. This puts me at a tremendous disadvantage compared to classes that can tank and heal. Don’t even think about telling me to re-roll to another class. I shouldn’t have to spend hours trying to find dungeon groups that will take a melee DPS. Therefore combat needs to be reworked into a tank spec so that I can actually play the game. :clown_face:

You should queue for AB and WSG instead. I’m sure you’ll have no issue getting the honor + marks for that gear in no time flat.

They are structurally the same problem, though. Actually, BG queues are even less justifiable to have Blizz interventions precisely because they are automated. You literally sit in a queue. You don’t have to work to ask for people to join your team, like you have to do with dungeons. Yet dungeon LFG doesn’t get a fix.

The reason is easy to see. Many people run BGs. If they don’t fix BG queues, many more people might unsub than if they don’t fix LFD. It all goes back to the $.

However the biggest problem here is that adding same-faction queuing is violating the spirit of Classic, as would implementing cross-realm LFD. I know it and I know you know it.

You also have to consider that you get geat, loot, and gold from dungeons. While you have to do like 100 bg’s to accomplish anything, which is why their queue needs to be a reasonable amount of time, because each individual one isn’t very rewarding on it’s own.

Sarcasm aside, there was an actual LFG tool that was actually pretty useful for finding low lvl dungeon groups and for some reason they decided not to add it

Weird that they added same-faction BGs in a manner of days, but not a feature that was actually in TBC

so if you had to manually find the alliance players you were going to face in the BG, that would somehow be better? lol

My thoughts as well. No idea why the LFG feature is even being delayed.
