I don't mind it not being for variant dungeons too much, since those are very much soloable on any class (but I wouldn't complain if it was added), but alliance raids really should have it since you need at least three people to even unsync those.

I also agree that the ability to change the appearance of the zones to the pre-fight versions would be wonderful! The last area of the Dead Ends pre-boss fight is super pretty and would make a lovely backdrop, but explorer mode just has the completed-dungeon version. I guess at least at 100 we could probably unsync it... but I doubt every class could manage until 110ish, so we're back to the issue of having to find other people to help you get to a spot to take a picture.
