Mythic raid group finder

Is it working as intended this week so you get ID locked to Mythic raids? Is this going to change?

I need content to push and was looking forward to this change.... but its not working like normal and heroic group/raid finder.

All it does then is make it a little more easy to kill 1 or 2 bosses but that all.
Mythic is ID locked. Always has been and always will (unless announced otherwise in the future).
I know, but I do not understand that. Its stupid and meaningless.

"I do not understand" does not mean its stupid and meaningless.
So whats the thinking of opening it crossrealm then, but not allowing it to work as a normal and HC raid do crossrealm? Might as well not do it then, because its basically the same, just that it takes a tad less time for a few kills.
Just because it is stupid and meaningless for you it does not mean it will be for others too.
The current mythic lockout has no meaning. Bosses on M are already hard and take a lot of progress.

It makes no sense no have the lockout still stand.

Atm if you join a pug that clears 3/8 M that's it for that week. You can continue that lockout but people won't join to progress for 4/8M because they get locked on the first 3 bosses.

So you have one chance to clear everything, or get lucky trying to find people that are willing to come progress and get locked on the bosses you have already cleared.

After the top 100 are done they should remove the lockout and go progress like in heroic. Be able to jump from pug to pug and get them all done regardless how many pugs you swap.

That would mean we could farm bosses repeatedly for rerolls on loot, like we currently can with Heroic.

It also reduced how much loot your raid is going to get if someone has already killed a boss. At present we redistribute our unwanted loot to the rest of our raid team. The lockout system guarantees they wont be loot locked.

It's forced personal loot anyway so it doesn't matter. The loot is calculated per individual chance not per raid. It's not an issue on heroic.

At least people can go progress and clear bosses rather tham be stuck at 3/8M every week cause average pugs can't be bothered with more than that.

It would open M raiding to a bigger audience my way. And again if someone joins just to coin first two bosses fine by me. But let me replace that person that doesn't want to continue forward, without locking people just because Bob wanted only the first two bosses.
Jesus, don't ruin the game more. They should remove group finder all together and idk, force you to interact with player in an mmorpg to find a suitable group?? maybe? besides mythic uldir is way to hard for a pug group.
first 2 bosses is free loot, you can equip 1 char with it 385+ atleat 4 + peaces and your not boundet to a guild. Thank god for that tool finder realy but if you want to go deeper then you should look for people for sure.
Dudas, we share the same thoughts. And for me personally who has become older and can't commit to locked raiding times x times a week the group finder has been working excellent, and now that Iam on farm on HC Uldir I want to progress in Mythic to push ahead. But was disappointing with the locked out system when it worked so well.

I understand why they kept it close till first 100 had it on farm, but not the locked id. This will prob make me stop playing wow pretty soon again because the lack of interest in the other content. Would be perfect now for me to keep the interest up trough puging till the new content release mid Dec.

It a matter of alternatives to how you want to play. And if people want to progress in a like minded guild they can do that or if people want to go through the pain of puging (at times it is that) they can do that.

So like I said before, really don't understand why blizz id lock raids they put in groupfinder. And I hope blizzard reads the forums and see my and hopefully others opinions:)

For mythic communities that are crossrealm. The point in having it ID locked is that it's content intended for hard-premade groups. Mythic is not meant for a solo player to gear up with randoms (possible, but not intended and thus not supported in this case).

Id say HC was pretty hard as when I first started there aswell. Iam 100% sure that I spent a good amount of more average time wiping on Ghuun HC then any average guild did/does. Would be fitting to have that possibility with Mythic now aswell the next couple of weeks til new content releases. Instead I risk stop playing because of interest loss.
