Can we PLEASE get RDF NOW!?

That process is much, much worse for alts now cause they didn’t add separation between HC and HC+ in the junk LFG tool they did specifically for WotLK Classic.

Tbh people are doing as if that was bad idea … seeing some people behave in dungeons/bgs, I am starting to wish someone made guild full of bots, so you can play with someone normal xD

Ha, yeah, bots might unironically make normal heroics a viable way of gearing up if they got to a decent point of random dungeons.

It depends on the players, I personally am inviting 2k-2.2k (fresh) 80’s in my HC+ dailies as long as they know what to do with the affixes, so there’s that.

You can either make your own group or simply don’t queue “hardcore” players’ groups who care about GS but not knowledge of the dungeon.

There is currently only 1 reason I’m not playing WotLK.

My overall dungeon experience (on any level or class) as it is right now is horrible. (Forming, getting there, actually playing the dungeon with other ‘social’ players).

If RDF where to be released I’d come back. And I can’t be the only one that feels this way.

Most unsocial and lazy ones. I find groups pretty fast, even on my lvl 58 warlock it wasn’t that hard, just took a bit time to browse LFG tool and some messeges in global channel to find a healer. We organised 2 DPS DKs to split mob tanking and easily avoided long search of a true tank. All this done via socialising before the instance.

As we progressed though the HFB dungeon I noticed that despite my preparations, having saronite engineering grenades, potions, full heirlooms and even TBC weapon oil, my DPS was still lacking, compared to DKs and barely keeping up with lvl 59 hunter thanks to grenades due to my crappy BRD ilvl 48±2 gear. Anyways we made it through the instance and I even won the ring, wished everyone good luck in BF and left to get my HFP questing greens and blues.

In automated RDF tool I would most likely waited in line for about 40-50 minutes, or even more if all DKs registered only as dps, only to be kicked out by some crossrealm toxic gatekeepers after minimal time before votekick activating without any notice or other prior communication. I wouldn’t be able to add players to friend list as they would most likely be from other realm, this interest in such contacts would be pretty low.

One thing:

You could still make groups outside of RDF, so if you’d like to roll with 2 dk’s and a healer you can still do that. Hell you could make groups consisting out of just level 53 warlocks looking for a ring if you’d like. RDF doesn’t stop this.

RDF came with a 15 minute timer on initiating a votekick (+ a further delay to initiate a votekick if you used the feature too often) or waiting till after the first boss was downed.

Rampant RDF kicking is a myth that never happened.

Even during JJ buff I was leveling as a prot paladin, and was listed in finder for almost whole leveling process.

In total I did:

  • 1 deadmines
  • 1 stockafe
    BIG LONG NOTHINGNESS
  • 4 hellfire ramparts (with the same group)
  • 1 blood furnace
    <…>
    From 70 to 80 situation was better, did like 20 dungeons.

I got a new priest healer now, several times I tried to list myself for deadmines - 0 groups :slight_smile: leveling dungeons are dead compared to retail, and you can’t prove othervise.

Not to put you down but you made 3 paragraph post about how you succesfully made 1 dungeon run. And that pretty much explains by itself why the game needs the RDF.

I’ve been leveling my shaman, it is 66 now. I’ve done 5+ deadmines, 5+ stockades, 1 SFK, 5+ SM GY/LIB, 5+ SM Arm/Cath, 4 ZF, 1 Strat living, 1 strat UD, 10+ Ramps, 5+ BF, 4 MT, 4 AC and probably some I’ve forgotten.
Finding groups in 15-57 is a bit harder cause people outlevel dungeons fast and are too lazy to move to the dungeon.
Leveling dungeons are alive and well and you can’t prove otherwise cause you’re full of it.

and I am there. No dks, what a bliss

And yet you’re still trying to ruin the game you so clearly don’t like?

How I am ruining game? I am responsible for bots or boosts or joyous journey?
But yes, wotlk classic is worst crap ever. Glad that at least cataclysm will come and clean our world from this abomination.

So you did all the ones that getting traction. No Gnomeregan? No Shadowfang Keep? No Sunken Temple? On Blackrock?

I did mention 1 SFK… I didn’t do Gnomeregan or Sunken Temple cause I don’t like those dungeons. BRD and LBRS are a bit too long so pretty much nobody does them, quite rare to find people who’d want to go there.

You’re in a thread asking for RDF, a WotLK native feature, arguing against it.

Just run along.

You, by your own statements, have no stake in whether or not we have RDF.

There is no argue, RDF=death of classic. Arguing with the truth is pointless
Go to retail for it

Yeah its really sad how vanilla classic died right after they added rdf into it :man_shrugging:

In your own words, explain why that is?

Cause with how rapidly population is decreasing in WotLK Classic I’m truly interested in how adding RDF would speed up this process.

Dude, you’re arguing against a native feature of a game you don’t even play.
