Please make PotD cross data center

But the process of creating groups to attempt to tackle said content should be made easier. That doesn't trivialize or "casualize" the difficulty of the actual content. It would just give more ppl the opportunity to actually try to do it.

The thing is though: Putting this content into DF (aka: the only REAL way to make it easier to find people to do it) WILL eventually open the floodgates for nerfs. There are two topics on that issue in the dungeon-subforum.
Cross-realm-PF for it could tackle the problem a bit but at the end of the day I'd say it boils more down to someone probably playing on the wrong server for their timezone if they cant people to run content with.

Lets not forget, that you
1) can take breaks - so you dont have to play 8 hours non-stop and
2) dont need to go in with 4 people (why are people always forgetting that? Honestly, that content is supposed to be a challenge - if you want to do it, you should want a challenge, so ultimatly you can also make use of the feature to go in alone or just with one or two other people)

I'm not saying that it has to be done non-stop, I haven't had a group yet that didn't need to stop at some point because of someone's need to zzz.

Only a few of those groups actually got back together again on a subsequent day to continue our run though.

And only one group of players I met through using the PF actually attempted to do it multiple times. They were raiders though, and PotD wasn't their priority so they could only devote two evenings a week to PotD.

I was estimating the total time to complete for perspective. With the entire endeavor probably split between 2-3 irl days.


Personally, I think DF for this would be an absolute nightmare and wouldn't work at all w/o making changes to the content. Which again, is not what I'm saying I want. I feel like you're overlooking the some of the other benefits of PF... such as being able to state your intent and screen players for their schedules.
