Random hc not so random

[stroopwafelz]

Since the new lfg tool and random hc's was introduced in Wrath i been doing random hc's.

In wrath i got in a week old kingdom 6 out of 7 day's... after a few months i got so sick of it i didn't even bother with doing them anymore, and i think i was one of the only people who cheered when i got Oculus.

I was hoping in cata it would improve for me but now i get Deadmines all the time! I devolept a concricle hate for this dungeon and simply stopped doing them again.

Am i the only one who keeps getting the same random all the time?

Bad luck is bad.

I always seem to get either BRC or Vortex pinnacle, neither of which are very long or difficult, although the occasional GB gets thrown in, which makes me facepalm if i'm not in a full guild group.

What you just said was this:
I always get easy dungeons when using LFG, QQ.
I hate getting hard dungeons when using LFG. QQ.



OT: RNG is RNG, roll tank if you want to have the ability to wait 15-30 min for a new HC

The random dungeon finder ignores any current saves.

Exaclty, best move to get rid of the instance poping out too much in your randoms.
You'll still have a chance to get it, but considerably lower.

LFD have always been annoying. In wrath it was old kingdom atleast 5 times a week and now the first one I is always Grim Batol. Neither of them was harb but you get bored when you see the same instance so often.

No it doesn't. Why do people just state these things so baldly when they are so wrong? Maybe you should have phrased it something like "it appears to me that the random dungeon finder ignores any current saves based on my own personal experiences."

In reality, it can give you a dungeon you are saved to but it is far less likely to give it to you than one you are not saved to.

That said, the random dungeon finder for me is basically completely random. I get them all in equal amounts.

grim batol... always, everyday, all the time

[Veyne]

It's the very definition of random. Sorry.

Until you've done them all in one lockout, then it goes back to being random. But generally speaking, this is correct.

EDIT: Oh hey, would you look at that. 1000th post. Not that any of you care.

Grim Batol multi times in a day all the time PLEASE kill me =S. I hate the place with a passion... but i am getting good at the bombing part

Huh, almost a whole page of replies and noone has a clue.

Deadmines and SFK are the only heroics that dont require entrance discovery. And i'm sure that a number of players (i'd say maybe 33%) hasnt discovered ALL Cata dungeons. Therefore the chance for DM and SFK is higher than the rest of the heroics simply due to the LFG system excluding from the other heroics the people who havent discovered their entrances.

I would gladly take those two over GB
