    Do you want LFD in Wrath Classic?

    So, now that we've had almost two full classic WoW cycles (not including Season of Mastery), we've learned that although SOME people are more social given the proper incentive, people having to make their own groups causes significant delays, not to mention other issues like party leaders taking advantage of other players. So, given your choice, do you want #nochanges for WoW Classic: Wrath of the Lich King, and maintain having the LFD (Dungeon Finder) tool, or would you prefer this be where Blizzard diverges, and remains without the modern LFD tool?

    It 100% depends on the patch. LFD did not come out till last patch.

    I'm personally more likely to do dungeon content if it is in when wrath classic launches, so I'm all for it. If they don't add it until last phase (or a phase after the first) I'm fine with that also.

    They've been kind of wishy-washy with whether they keep something out of the game until it's proper patch; Honor System in Classic was a problem when it released ahead of BGs. Most would prefer Dual Talent Spec at 3.0 launch, rather than wait for a 3.1 equivalent in Wrath Classic.

    I am personally hoping for an increase in xp for lvling. Do not want to have a boost, but perhaps a 25% xp bonus would be nice.

    Not having LFD at launch would be a massive mistake.

    I've had enough of "reserved". For all I care it can be in from the start or the Ulduar phase.

    Not from the get-go.

    As far as leveling, I mean, come on -- people come for the main event. This is Classic, not a Delorean to 2008. Increase 1-68 XP by double-digit multiples even before heirlooms. Give paid boosts a 30-day cooldown, unlimited. (With each new phase, increase 68-80 XP gains. Main event, man.)

    In Northerend: so, LFG Bulletin Board is really slick. It'll be even better post-TBC when any tank can do any dungeon, and players have an incentive to run a heroic more than guildiesTheyLike+1 times.

    If it will be added with ICC - sure.
    Otherwise no.

    I am going to take a guess and they'll throw it in in the first patch.

    LFD was a pretty defining feature of Wotlk, despite it being only introduced in 3.3.
    Same goes for Dual spec, artificially delaying it until Phase 2 will just piss off a lot of people.

    Staggering content is fine but staggering features is just dumb.

    Absolutely yes. For the sake of my many alts wanting to get dailies done, I can just be getting on with farming and world dailies while in queues.
    Ex-Mod. Technically retired, they just won't let me quit.

    Honestly I just want to get to 70 and then level through northrend like normal. So increasing XP gains up to that point would be fine by me. It's not like I don't remember how to play the 8 classes I got to 80 during Wrath still lol

    #NoChanges.

    It needs to come in the last patch. If it comes at release, when dungeons were still semi-difficult, it won't be the same. Many people who think they will be able to just queue for a dungeon and AOE everything down, will be mistaken.

    Frankly it entirely depends on server populations and suchlike. As someone who was around back when Wrath was a thing I very much remember the colossal pain in the ass it was grinding for badges on a realm that, at the time was slowly losing population. I'd rather run with complete strangers if it means I can actually run the instances instead of spamming /lfg in Dalaran for 3 hours, just to do one heroic...

    Maybe include it with the ICC release? Like they did back in the day. I sincerely doubt there'll be a lack of players looking to do heroics early on.

    Define "LFD"...

    The LFD they added to TBCC is fine.

    What they have in Modern WoW today is not fine for Classic.

    I honestly don't think that LFD has ever been a problem in the game. It's when LFR was added that the integrity of the game really went downhill. I hope that the dungeon finder is in the game from the get-go.

    Bad News then, cause the LFD we have in Retail is unchanged from the LFD introduced in WOTLk
    We're all newbs, some are just more newbier than others.

    Just a burned out hardcore raider turned casual.
    I'm tired. So very tired. Can I just lay my head on your lap and fall asleep?

    I would want fewer servers but with server restricted LFD.
    Only being grouped with people from your own server.

    This, and maybe also no auto teleport to the dungeon.
