[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

Topic: Throne of Tides and lfg tool issue (perhaps)

	I am probably doing it wrong but for some reason, I cannot see "Throne of the Tides" in the LFG tool list of normal dungeons; yet, I can see it as a locked heroic instance since I do not possess the gear lvl with my char. I can see all the others, but Throne of the Tides remain invisible. I'm 85 too now. :/ Anybody got an idea? edit. Okay, I think I shot my own leg. You can't lfg for it if you are 84, but you can still walk into the instance? Either I'm screwing up or blizz is confusing me. If it's true that you can't lfg with 85, then I just missed a fun instance -____- -----signature----- DaoC, WoW (retired, inactive); WAR (semi active), EVE (active) "Ye'know, com'on!

	It's too low a level now as a normal. Blackrock Caverns should also be missing. Stonecore maybe as well. The list of doable normals at 85 is kinda short. -----signature----- Explorer / Soloer+Small groups / Some PvP MMOin' since UO beta, still waiting for UO 2.0 done right

	Damn. Fooled me twice. I guess I have to get the blues I need elsewhere. Thanks. Case solved -----signature----- DaoC, WoW (retired, inactive); WAR (semi active), EVE (active) "Ye'know, com'on! Giimmeee di Ke$$$HHHHHH!" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OADJl-CVDo0

	My understanding is you can still do the dungeon, you just have to do it the "old fashioned way" of assembling a group yourself, you cannot use the dungeon finder. Means you would have to travel there or have someone use the meeting stone, or warlock summon. All dungeons have "ranges" for the DF. This is no different than it's always been (trying to do lower level dungeons). -----signature----- There are those who play tank classes, and those that tank.

	You are right on that one, but I find it very extreme for the fact this is all in the 80 - 85 bracket nonetheless. I mean, come on! ^^ Okay, so it's the ol' fashion way, I guess. -----signature----- DaoC, WoW (retired, inactive); WAR (semi active), EVE (active) "Ye'know, com'on!

	Yeah the brackets for dungeon queues are borderline retarded from 80-85....I really wish I knew wtf the devs were thinking for this expansion. Because it doesn't appear they were thinking much at all. -----signature----- PvPing since 1977

	It was supposed to be fixed. But looks like it wasn't. Dec 14 Hotfix (http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/1232869) "The Looking For Dungeon random bracket for Throne of the Tides and Blackrock Caverns has been changed from level 80-81 to 80-82, and the specific bracket has been changed from level 80-83 to 80-85." -----signature----- (none)
