Quote:I wasn't that excited about it but I have found it to be WONDERFUL for finding groups. Yes it puts you with bad people sometimes but that happens in pugs no matter what. Overall my experience has been very good with this. For once a new feature I actually like.:)
Random queuing / dungeon system = awesome
Really, they put a lot of polish on this system. I can't remember the last time Blizzard did something this involved that went in so smoothly.
The loot system that goes along with it is great for random PUGs so people can't 'ninja', but TERRIBLE for guild runs. There is no way to have it both convenient (auto-DE) and have someone be able to choose an option that will save it from DE if they can use it. We thought need would work, but then the Boomkins got locked out of cloth and the plate wearers got locked out of half their DPS gearing options and stuff started geting DE'd that could have been used. Now we're stuck with all passing or all greeding and again giving crap to the DE'er to DE.
Any solutions we've been able to work out end up having an exploitable gap for PUGs (like having Need > Greed > Vendor / DE instead of Need > Greed / DE, a ninja-PUG could just Greed everything)
