im more supprised there are 4 hours worth of groups to apply to on the alliance side, did you just apply to like the same 3 + 5 key groups?

Or have the people already started paying horde people to come over and HoF for them so they could cross realm? :stuck_out_tongue:

Have you considered… i know this may be a tough one, I know it may be outlandish, I know it may be terrifying…

But have you considered not complaining and instead doing something productive like building your own damn group?

I love how people whine about this without proactively making their own group or finding a discord or something. Always have to play victim and can’t do anything for themselves. :rofl:

Gee, it’s almost as though the “players” posting that “just start your own group and it will instantly fill” are posting from the same script.

“And you will always get the exact key you want to do, 100% of the time. I guarantee it!”

One of those ways is clogged up with WTS BOOSTS spam, that ruins my immersion :frowning:

Sad you people have to blame the game for your own inability to use what’s in front of your face. LOL

Sad Blizzard can’t find more solutions to why droves of players are leaving their game, and your point is also correct btw I just think it can work both ways

Well, as someone who feels more comfortable joining someone else’s key but getting declined for hours; it is a whole other game when you list your own.

I tried this the other day with my +14 key and I had to beat the 240+ ksm players off with a stick.

And yeah, I had a 14 key. But it’s actually quite late in the season to be running 14s.

If I’d done my own keys from the start is be up at 17-18s by now.

Despite all that, I still try to join others keys most of the time. But at least I know when I get declined it’s because 20 other dps with more ilvl and score are competing with me for 3 spots.

Sad your disgusting denial about a bad game being good results in you talking to people like this.

“IN MUH BUBBLE, QUEING UP FOR STUFF TAKES 2 SECONDS SO THE GAME MUST BE GUD”

your anecdotal crap doesnt mean crap to anyone.

I know pugging can be rough on alliance but I smell cap on this one. What groups were you trying to get into ?

1 DPS LF 2 DPS, 1 Heals, 1 Tank.

4 hours later, you are the same place. most dont bother applying to group that dont have at least a tank OR healer.

Stop stupidly suggesting this, its not the answer.

Not really, I’ve built thousands of my own groups as either tank, DPs or healer my average wait time from start to before i’m in the dungeon is 10 minutes this is ENTIRELY due to laziness and not wanting to do your own work.

And that’s just pugging, This doesn’t include using tools such as

Guilds
Friends
Discord groups
Krowtennetwork/similar streamer communities
