I already did the “world tour” gameplay back in 2016 in pserv, already saw me and all players how annoying is to try to do all dungeons to farm emblems.
I did it yesterday and god, what a bad old flash memories i have now, i’ll just focus myself on the less items i need for raid, even if i’m not full BIS i don’t care, i already cleaned this T7 content with all raids at 50% it wasn’t hard.
I’m the only one to just focus on what i need in dungeons HC and never doing it again without RDF ?

That makes no sense. Why do it with RDF if you dont need anyhting from it?
I will prob spam the stuff in P1 just like i did in TBC. Badges are always usefull.

Makes sense because you could farm emblems for :
- Heirlooms => And then being encouraged to lvlup a reroll
- Gems
- PvP stuff
- Reput items like the heroday
Without RDF, i’m not encouraged to farm it, so less players playing the dungeons.
And that is why RDF should not be in the game. You will break the emblem “economy”.
You can always do all heroics every day as it is now. Just that there is a daily cap on the amount of badges you can get.

I enjoy doing the dungeons every day.
But once i have all reps exalted and all emblem items i need, i probably won’t push every HC every day.
Also, I imagine this rush for HC’s will die down VERY fast, so gotta do this while it’s still viable.

By break “economy” you mean more accessible gems = less expensive on AH ?
Then it’s good, less expensive = buyable by doing some daily quest
I can, that’s not the problem, it’s just annoying without RDF.
The daily cap is for Cataclysm, you can farm all heroic emblem by farming dungeons once.
There was a daily cap with RDF aswell, it was just 30 higher.
No, it means that ppl will farm everyhting over a weekend and then start to raidlog wich pretty much screw up a lot of things in the game.
Daily cap is for Wrath as you can not get more than the amount of bosses + 2 (daily dungeon Q)

No. RDF removed the cap. If you did random dungeons there where no lockouts. If you tried to select a specific there where lockouts but the random ones could bypass it.

That’s not how it was, there was lockouts and once all dungeons were completed the entire panel disappeared and you could only queue normal.
That is not true at all. When Random Dungeon Finder was introduce in 3.3.0. Selecting Random Lich King Heroic, which was one of three settings from a drop down menu (Specific Dungeon, Random Lich King Dungeon, Random Lich King Heroic) allowed players to buy pass the once per day lock out for Lich King Heroics.
The system was also not “truly” random. It tried to not put you in the same instance consecutively. However, you could continuously run Random Heroics and eventually would run, say Heroic Nexus, more than once in a 24 hour period.

I know this claim and there is absolutely zero evidence for it.
I’m pretty sure the information about emblems states this conclusively.
"As of patch 3.3, you can gain Emblems of Triumph…
…
- two from completing your second (and later) random heroic Lich King dungeon instances (the first awards Emblems of Frost) (max of 30 emblems)"
So that means you cannot indefinitely queue for random heroics.
No it literally does not mean that at all… You said:
This is untrue. There is a video from 2009 still on Youtube by Rill, showing clearly how the dungeon finder works… I know because I just googled it, which you could have done.
Whether or not you can get emblems from every instance is irrelevant to your initial claim I quoted above. You could still continuously run heroics forever using LFD.
The 2 Emblems of Frost for you first heroic in a 24 hour period directly replaced the daily quest offered at Violet Hold. The daily quests were removed and associated achievements for completing all dailies were made into Feats of Strength. It also coincided with the removal of the Dungeons and Raid Emblem achievements which moved to Feats of Strength and went up to a max of 1000.
The information is at your fingertips.

You mean this video, which you surely didn’t link because it does nothing like you claim?
You’re simply wrong, you can never get the same instance in a RDF. In any circumstance. You will never find it happening, because the change that allowed it was introduced in 4.3
" Players who use [Dungeon Finder] for a random Heroic dungeon will no longer be locked to that instance"

Tell me you didn’t watch the video without telling me you didn’t watch the video… I will wait.
Hint: It’s the 1:00 - 1.20 part.
He’s standing in Dalaran during that time.
What he says does not matter.
What is seen does.
Nevermind the fact he was a player from 12 years ago, a literal noob.
/sigh
inaudible disappointed noises
If you are going to post a quote, do so in it’s entirety…
Patch 4.3.0:
- Players who use Dungeon Finder for a random Heroic dungeon will no longer be locked to that instance. Previously, players who entered an instance via the Random Dungeon option were then prohibited from queuing for that dungeon or entering the instance manually via the portal. Players should now always be able to complete a specific Heroic dungeon once per day regardless of any random dungeons completed.
Patch 3.3.0
[]The Heroic Wrath of the Lich King Daily Random Dungeon option will award two Emblems of Frost no more than once a day.[]The normal Wrath of the Lich King Daily Random Dungeon option will award two Emblems of Triumph no more than once a day.[]Continuing to complete Wrath of the Lich King Heroic instances using the Daily Random Dungeon option will award players two additional Emblems of Triumph each time. []Daily Heroic and normal dungeon quests have been removed. These quests have been replaced with weekly raid quests (see the “Quests” section for details).
The important part:
[*]Continuing to complete Wrath of the Lich King Heroic instances using the Daily Random Dungeon option will award players two additional Emblems of Triumph each time.
Im not sure are you high or what.
If there is cap of 47 emblem in a day, the RDF function doesnt change that. Only thing it changes is that you dont need to spam chat for a freaking healer for a menial task that can be completed by anyone.
Its just a waste of time to wait rather justuse automatic queue

You know they could just keep the cap and add RDF right?
It’s not impossible for them to add one feature without the other.
