My "Social" experience leveling a new toon thanks to no RDF

Why bother posting if you’re gonna start by being argumentative? Also you should be “Paying attention” if you’re the one making the group.
If all you’re going to is complain leave it in your head, noone is going to care about your plight when questing gets faster exp anyway.

adds a paywall to continue to playing together. they love whales like you :slight_smile: profiting of your interactions. you meet someone you like want to play with you pay for transfer. you get mad with said person join another random you like and repeat. humans are emotional how can you gain profits from this. maybe with this system hmm

bro 1-60 in wrath is so fast u dont even need rdf finder or heirlooms u crazy

This is the exact same thing they said Vanilla and TBC would die of. Strange that neither of those expansions died.

And if you are on a small server and/or not alot of players are leveling you don’t get a dungeon.

Eh nothing is going to change. Blizz and a vocal minority of the player base don’t want it. Classic will die sooner rather than later. Already is…but I’m just going to post some “I told you so” meme when Blizz announces classics complete closure.

Sure bud we totally believe you.

I find it impressive that you’re telling people to quit a game that you haven’t even begun to play yet.

As someone who took your advice and went “back to retail” (quotes because I played classic wow from the very start before trying out retail) it’s funny how desperate people like you are to kill the game.

Classic’s biggest problem is not a lack of RDF or other QoL features, it’s always been abrasive troglodytes who make the community completely unwelcoming and uncompromising.

Most player bases want their games to succeed and thrive, but you just want it to fail because “classic isn’t for everyone” even as those that it’s “not for” play and experience way more of the game than you.

Hell, I mostly played in classic and tbc, only made it to 71 in classic wrath before quitting and even I’ve experienced more of it than you in the few hours it took me to realize I was done with classic after TBC ended.

What a joke. Every time I read smarmy older classic players posting, I’m glad I play other games instead-- and that’s from someone who actually played and liked wrath back when it was current.

People like you took over and infested the classic community like a bad STD.

Except Final Fantasy 14 has RDF/LFR and there’s plenty of socializing in those groups.

Please quit and stop complaining. Just annoying for everyone else.

How am i a whale?

I dont buy anything off blizzard or 3rd party sites.

It randomizes the dungeons you could use so you’d see it.

when this char was in tbcc and questing in the area by Mana tombs…no one was ever there. On grobb even at the time. Now a nice tank would run it for ya. 50 gold. not a carry. just to show up.

LFG no hits others not up, mine no hits, chat crickets.

I asked here on forums and several dungeon pros explained why MT is not liked. long answer made short…there are reasons tbcc was ramparts to 65, slave pens 65 to 70. MT is basically not fun nor profitable to run for its mid level range.

RDF would put MT in with the sp and ramps. as it does for say retail legion and its unloved dungeons (legion is my most used chromie time to level).

No one goes sees helya of their own free will lol. that is a Random LFD hit you jsut take. and as you approach her as end boss (ie. no sklpping, she must be faced)…you post in vain please remember water holes are instant death, please avoid.

what? hit water hole?..2-3 people dead. thankfully 2 people who can not hit water holes can drop her. its not fun as I have been there…but it gets the complete for the random xp reward.

Its funny that they say RDF hurt thr social aspect, but even thr lfg 90% of the time no one talks and all people do is rush to the end. RDF and lfgs social aspect are basically the same so in the end it doesn’t really matter. Rdf would be more convenient for people 1 to 60 to help the grind.

Oh look who it is, hi there little radical!

I mean your comparison is asinine because you’re now conflating the content (off topic) with the logistics of doing the content (the topic).

This is an apples to oranges fallacy.

If you were to correct the fallacy to be apples to apples, then you would end up with the heart of Sykk’s post.

And the issues in this post are largely why the LFD tool was ever born! People wanted to do dungeons for the preferred leveling experience, but the logistics of doing dungeons made them effectively dead content outside of Strath mount farm. So you had effectively dead content people had already been doing for the better of THREE expacs (the same questing experience) and were bored/burnt out of, and this growing desire for what would become an MMO defining feature that is perhaps on of THE most popular features because it lets people do the content they wanted, which was otherwise dead.

The irony about people crying out to stop this QoL change is also great as when the feature came out, there was near universal praise for it, save for a very very small round of players. In fact, there is far more griping over it now then there was originally. In the past, they made the same arguments about social stuffs, but they had some room for validity as the system was an unknown at the time.

But at this point, the same complaints against it simply do NOT hold true; we’ve had enough years of data to observe and watched this feature become a baseline feature in successful MMOs AND saw it birth the narrative experience from the other MMO Titan in the room. There isn’t a leg to stand on when making the same decade plus arguments when we KNOW those arguments are fluff

I agree, so don’t compare BGs to RDF.

Ah the exaggerated complaints of those with no social skills. Your tears are delicious.

I think having RDF for the lower level (1-70) content would definitely be helpful, especially on locked servers - if it is cross realm.

Finding a dungeon group for these lower level dungeons can certainly be painful and having a cross realm pool of players would give more levelers the opportunity to experience these dungeons for the loot and xp since there is such slim pickings for other players in those level ranges for many people.

I also don’t see the being teleported to the dungeon thing as much of an issue for the lower level content either. Unless players were to start using it as just some quick teleport to get to that area, leave the instance, and drop group then I don’t see it as any sort of game breaking immersion killer.

For Northrend / Wotlk dungeons (70-80) though, I don’t think it should be used or is really necessary.
