    I'm not opposed to them continuing to use Dungeons as a teaching method, but there's a crux there that prevents it from being useful on the level we'd need them to be. See my above answer for the reasoning.

    Again 'difficulty' is relative and we want individual people improving their skills in particular. Generalized group skills are already present and continually developing. I don't think we'll see them buck that trend in the 6.0 dungeons. I just think you won't get your desired level of training from them and still maintain the necessary balance between accessibility and training.

    That said, we can brainstorm on what sort of mechanics need more focus on. You'd have to admit some mechanics in this game are overused, but some of them might need even more enforcement. Do you have any ideas as to what mechanics we need to place emphasis on more in dungeons moving forward?

    I don't think so. They could make it enticing enough if it say, dropped currency to improve gear, or other such desired rewards. As far as it needing to be mandatory - if you tie titles to levels of difficulty, you wouldn't need to. Players who were serious about making sure their prospective members knew their stuff could ask to see the respective title associated to what role and difficulty they feel was needed to join.

    Sure, it might get some 'elitist' claims, but at least it keeps the recruitment methods more clear cut and honest in terms of expectations.
