30 minute cooldown on deserter for from random dungeons..

You only get if you are the first (or second?) to leave. So it prevents people from being dickheads. I'd be fine with it being an hour.

Not liking the changes to tailoring.... incoming.... 27x jc >_>

Seems this is also for premade teams. As i didn't complete occulus, old kingdom, halls of stone, pit and halls of reflection yet (im still in my early wow & boxing days) this means that it will have a serious impact in gearing up from badges. Fine with me. When i want to do the first random of the day i'll just head to icc and queue from there. If a random pops up i don't like, skip it and do 2x forge of souls normal. Thats 2 badges for 15-20 minutes and 3 epics to DE. Once the first completed I''ll just do the dungeons I want and miss out on the 2 extra badges. That will still be faster than waiting 30 minutes.

Rather than increasing the debuff, i would have seen a penalty like that you wouldn't get the 2 bonus badges for the next hc that you complete. This way premade beginner teams and boxers wouldn't be affected. If someone leave the dungeon from a premade team, chances are big that the group agreed.

hmm

Elemental Oath: This ability is now always on as a passive aura.

that sounds intressting.... so that means elemental oath is always up and you don't have to spec this on every character, I'm hoping that other shamans which haven't specced elemental oath still gain the 10% dmg buff when clearcasting is active

[Ghallo]

Zenga - that debuff only happens if you are in a random team. You are going to be a premade, so you won't get the deserter debuff.

Just leaving a dungeon doesn't get you the Debuff. So you could still leave Occ by "teleport out of dungeon", walk into PoS normal, and in 15 minutes be ready again.

[zenga]

That would be cool of course. But from what i read (The Deserter debuff given to players who leave a dungeon prematurely when queuing via the Random Dungeon option has been increased to 30 minutes, up from 15 minutes. The cooldown for using the Random Dungeon option remains 15 minutes.) i'm not so sure. But obviously you might have better info. Also possible that i read it wrong as i'm a non native english speaker.

The deserter buff would only occur if you leave the group you are in after leaving the dungeon. So as long as you stay in the group you are good to go.
It is not aimed at forcing people to do dungeons they do not want to do, rather to discourage people leaving a group at the beginnning of the dungeon when everyone else still remains to do the dungeon.

On the tailoring side of the notes, Spellweave has already been dropping in price on my server, down from close to 200g to now between 100 - 125g, this change will just expedite the drop. I suppose Blizzards view at this point is that most raiders are already geared (reflected in the current price drops on my server where I am seeing toons now close to 6k GS) and so a price drop in spellweave and ebonweave would bring cheaper epics to new to 80 toons and so get them raid ready faster.
