Raids: "Complete my raid" in less than a minute
A player can now have their 10 or 25 player raid completed, from old raids to Northrend 10 player raids: autonomous players in game first, then temporary brains of their item level after 60 seconds, who follow them, tank, heal and leave them the loot. On the test server, a Zul'Gurub raid is complete and inside in less than a minute.

What changes
A player leading their group, or alone, can now choose "Complete my raid" in auto mode:
- they pick a 10 or 25 player raid, then the raid itself among those of their level, starting with the old ones: Zul'Gurub, Molten Core, Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj, Karazhan… then Vault of Archavon, Obsidian Sanctum and Naxxramas 10;
- the target composition is 2 tanks, 3 healers and 5 damage dealers for 10, and 3, 6 and 16 for 25, minus the players already there;
- free autonomous players in game nearby are invited first. After 60 seconds, temporary brains of the player's item level complete the raid, created right at the entrance;
- the group becomes a raid, with at least one healer per subgroup and the main tank marked. Everyone goes through the gate with the player and accepts the instance lock.
In the raid, they are the player's companions, and the player stays the leader:
- the tanks take the leader's target and the adds;
- the healers heal by priority, tanks first;
- the damage dealers hit the leader's target;
- nobody pulls on their own, and the temporary brains leave all the loot.
When the player leaves the raid, the temporary brains leave, then are deleted a minute later.
Checked on the test server
- 10 player raid for Zul'Gurub, lone level 60 player: nine temporary brains created at the entrance (2 tanks, 3 healers, 4 damage dealers), raid complete in 52 seconds, and everyone inside Zul'Gurub 55 seconds after the request.
- The player leaves the raid: immediate end, the nine temporary characters are deleted a minute later, and none remain in the database.
- No error.
Still open
- Raid combat itself has not yet been watched with a real client.
- Raids led by autonomous players alone will come later.
