You can view raids by looking in the social tab (under raids/Open Raid Browser) or you can type /lfr to pull up the interface from anywhere in the world.

Which would be fine....
If people used it.


Perhaps it's a matter of spreading the word. From my experience, it seems like a lot of people are still unaware of this new addition. We're keeping an eye on things though to see if there are other things we may want to do to make the feature more obvious in the future.

What?

Why would you not want it to be obvious??

The one crappy thing about this tool is that no one knows about it....

We even changed our guild motd to

"Well look at that......./LFR"

I mean we can help spread the word sure.

But that's kinda y'alls thing ain't it?

The poor tool got no pr at all, just a little side note in the patch notes.


We're aware it's not as obvious as we would like it to be, but for now, our option is to spread the word. If it gets changed, we'll get the word out then too. :)

Q u o t e:


I can see people dropping out of a 5man if a raid they liked comes up. That's probably a reason they separated the 2. However it feels like a punishment if we want to find a raid.

You want to look for a raid to join??? No 5 man groups for you...2 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Feedback noted. :)

Just wondering. Is the LFR tool across the whole battlegroup like the dungeon finder?


It's not at this point in time. I can't say if it will be in the future.
