Random!

I finally have a glimpse at Blizz's new LFG tool... and it's looking interesting :D



Introducing two random factors into this could be a stroke of genius: people you don't know AND a random dungeon? It's ok, I think by this Blizzard just means any of the locations you have specified from a list, as now you have access to a FAR better selection screen for selecting Le Dungeon de Choix...



This lists also extends down to Classic Dungeons (though at the moment those list's rewards are empty) I would expect to see something there that might give a % increase to XP as a reward, as badges and emblems at lower levels are actually pretty much useless. I see that WoW.com have tipped us off about a +5% to Heirloom XP spell that's appeared in the game files with this push. I think offering XP for an hour or maybe even 24 hours would be far more beneficial than any number of physical rewards considering the current speeds of levelling to 70. We shall see. Normal Dungeon randomness rewards the following:



As you can see there's new symbols for healing, dps and tanking: the Crown means you're willing to lead :D Taking more randoms increases the money you'll have for repair bills you'll recieve for each sucessful completion...

This from a Developer Chat on Twitter:

Q: May I create a group with 4 friends and then use the LFG interface to gain the random dungeon reward?
A: Yes. In fact, you can join it with a full group of 5 and still get the random dungeon reward. The reward is for doing a random dungeon, not necessarily for having random members.

Well it might not be that bad after all ;)
