Rejoice!

This will allow you to join up with your Real ID friends from other realms and:

• Form a cross-realm raid and use Raid Finder
• Jump in to any classic dungeon or raid and be automatically placed in the same instance
• Join forces and dominate the Battlegrounds

Please note, you will not yet be able to run normal or Heroic Dragon Soul with cross-realm Real ID raids.

As we look forward to the BattleTag system, it’s a very exciting time for World of Warcraft. No matter what realm you and your friends are on you’ll be able to team up and take on group content throughout the game.

Good stuff =)

Since raids can be up to 25-man... I'd hope that "battle finder" would allow more than a 5-man team to queue for BG's.

I'd imagine it could be rather fun, having eight 5-boxers or the equivalent, in an AV.

Dunno about US, but I can already queue for BG's for a while through Real ID

Right, but only in a party of 5.

hmz, do you really believe they will revert the system back so you can queue up again as a full premade?
Must be because else they wouldn't mention it in that post, still I think it's miscommunication but I hope I'm wrong.

Probably not for BGs, no. I think the point was to do actual LFR with more than just 5 people just as if you were all on the
same realm because, they state you can't do Normal/Heroic yet... so, they have plans for it.

Does that mean they will have crossrealm guilds? Or the super elite guilds will have a larger pool to practice bosses with...

Cross-realm guilds? Sure. Super elite guilds? Possibly. Do you think Blood Legion wants to share their world
first kills with Vodka?

What it does mean is that multiboxers across entire regions on the same faction will be able to join up with other
multiboxers from other realms to conquer raid content which is good news.
