Wary of pugs no more

Q u o t e:


first! also i love the person who came up with the idea

Here's another good one:

Q u o t e:
Badges and emblems looted off of any dungeon bosses by a member of the party or raid will automatically be given to all eligible party or raid members. Party or raid members must still be inside the instance to receive badges or emblems.

Q u o t e:


If you're outside when someone clicks, can you still go get it yourself?

In theory that should be the case. I haven't tested it myself or read through any bugs associated with it.

Q u o t e:
Just wondering if testing was done on the following:

Player disconnects and someone loots. How long does the player have to collect said token?

Someone dies and someone loots. Will the player that died be given the loot, regardless of whether he/she released to the GY?

There's probably more that I can think of, but I gotta head to the market. LAWLS.

Again, I haven't tested it. My understanding is that, if you're in the instance and eligible to receive emblems, you will receive them automatically as soon as someone loots them. If you are not in the instance and eligible for the emblems, it will remain on the corpse until the loot is retrieved or the corpse despawns.

Q u o t e:
im confused, does it tell you which bosses are still alive in the instance?

that would be nice if it did, rather than "oh you're about to get saved, do you want to port out?"

because that does prevent us from getting saved to "fresh" runs that arent fresh, but often you join knowing boss X is down, and then find out that boss X, Y, Z, A, D, E, and F are down, and you have boss O and G left.

It does not do this. It's definitely something we're interested in doing. I don't know off-hand if the tech for that exists. Either way it's something that would take a bit more time to develop. With the lock-out warning going into 3.1, the goal is at least to help curb the growing issue of players being saved to instances they thought were fresh. It's not going to solve all lock-out issues -- like you said, there could be fewer bosses alive in the instance than you were led to believe -- but it's a step in the right direction.

Q u o t e:

Translation: Crap, I knew we forgot something!

All I did was add the note to the patch notes. I didn't create or test the feature. :p
