Quote:This reminds me a bit of the netherwing attunement where once you have attuned you are no longer able to help others with it (unless you are a healer) since you can't do anything to the mob you need to kill for it. As more and more people become attuned it becomes harder and harder to find groups even able to help you.
No, that is a direct (and flawed in conception) game mechanic preventing it. This was simply folks getting it done once for themselves, and not going back to help out others with it because they've done it and therefore are 'done' with it.
It's often amusing that these are the folks who are baying to move up the progression ladder as fast as possible, and grumbling about the fact that there aren't many folks at the same level to help them out.
Granted, this was back when doing a heroic with a less than optimal group was simply a way to give the repair guy your money, when heroic were no place for some classes and almost all off specs. Thankfully, that's changed quite a bit.
That does amuse me, though. "Can you help me with this raid?" "Sorry, I'm not attuned. Can you help me get attuned? I just need a healer and/or tank?" "Sorry, I've done that/been there and am not going back because I'm done with it."
Then both groups sit around "LF1-3M for whatever..."
