With this change, I now doubt that rolling 5% nerfs will happen like in ICC and DS.
Yeah I agree that it should have just been normal that went xrealm but as they said with current tech if they enabled it for one then it gets enabled for both. When the new raid structure comes out they will be able to enable xrealm for individual difficulties. Only way to do it now is to separate the lockouts which I guess they didn't want to do. Would have been nice though.
Meh I dislike this update it will further cause guilds on small realms to have even less reason to stay together. Normal would be fine with me but I can't agree that current tier heroic should be cross realm to be honest.
Is Cutting Edge achievement still available since 6.0 has not been released?
Confirmed, it is still available.

I actually welcome this change... Just cause our own raiding as a guild has kind of disappeared somewhere and it opens up the opportunity for me to get decent friends in as fillers from other realms, be it for progression or normal farm.
I do understand the people who say that it might not be right for heroic modes or their progression, but for guilds like mine which kind of lacks the people it is welcomed change.
And I do feel for people who are afraid of their guild falling apart due to that, but the always loyal people will stick with the guild, no matter what
I hope it opens soon in EU as well.
All of my work is being diminished due to the rate at which the gold I receive from selling SOO clears being reduced in the near future!

Why are people mad? I don't get it.
It's been six months so not that shocking.
I think some would've preferred a warning. If you just paid to transfer 15 people over to your realm and this happened? Ya I'd be a bit mad.
IMO? 1. If this change was as easy as it apparently is, what's the point of a warning? It'd be like giving a warning that "I shall be turning on the lights in 1 minute." When you're standing by the light switch and everyone wants them on now.
2. If they did give a warning, people would've been disappointed they didn't get this warning yesterday. So no win situation.
It is extremely shocking there has never been a case of current tier heroic raiding being cross-realm.

Unfortunately this is a part of the problem, your guild wouldn't have been saved as it wouldn't have been a guild anymore if you are continuously replacing those that leave with pugs from other servers. Now guilds on low pop servers have no reason to stay together and in my opinion this is a bad thing.
But nothing changes, i think arguments about 5% shit is stupid but they at least have a debatable point, however this changes absolutely Nothing.
you can make arguments that it will tear apart low pop servers guilds or something but in terms of raiding nothing changes.
i welcome this change.

For the first part: Blizz may not view it as current anymore basically. (Not saying its accurate, just that all that matters is Blizz's opinion)
Second part: how do I put this: IMO 20m mythic is good in the long run. 20m mythic would've destroyed that guild and all small server 10m heroic guilds anyways (assuming they were a heroic guild). (Though admittedly, small server 10m guilds are always doomed as IRL problems happen and if you can't recruit, 1person quitting kills it.)
