Pandaren Scenario Bags incorrectly listed in group finder

Two containers and their contents are listed under the Group Finder->Pandaria tab - the Greater Cache of Treasures and Heroic Cache of Treasures. They used to be rewarded for running random scenarios and heroic scenarios respectively through the group finder, but since the 9.0 level squish (if not earlier) this has not been possible it is never possible to queue for random Pandaria scenarios no matter your level. Currently, these bags are only obtainable through three quests - the blue (Greater Cache of Treasures) is rewarded from the two (non-repeatable) quests: The King and the Council (to do the Blood in the Snow scenario) and the followup The Warchief and the Darkness (to do the Dark Heart of Pandaria scenario), both of which can be queued for solo to complete and gain two bags per character for a chance at loot from them. Similarly, the Heroic Cache of Treasures is now unobtainable, but there is something called the Bulging Heroic Cache of Treasures containing the same items rewarded from a single quest called Heroic Deeds, to do a single heroic scenario.

As such, until there is a way to somehow queue for random Pandaria scenarios again I think these containers should be moved out of the Group Finder category and into the Vale of Eternal Blossoms quests.

No I can't recall ever seeing the Pandaria group finder queues on... any character actually. If I toggle on Debug Mode I don't even see it on a 60. So it must not be returned by Blizzard as something that even exists in the group finder currently lol.

Yeah, so the issue is with the main list and what we added manually, not /attwq.

commented

Agreed, before the squish it was possible to lock yourself to 90 and queue in hope of finding others who were also grinding for them, but now it's impossible to queue for them.

commented

The Dungeon Finder portion of the /attwq list is completely built using game API data from Blizzard. We basically ask "What can I queue for?" and then "What does it give me?" for each result.

Perhaps can put in a bit of hard-coded logic to mark those specific groups as removed from game until Blizzard potentially fixes the content.

Ah, thanks for the insight. Makes sense that it's a Blizz side error.

commented

I will just note that pre squish, toons locked to 90 could still queue for scenarios.

They now can't, like you said.

The Dungeon Finder portion of the /attwq list

@ImUnicke, just curious, do you see it on a lvl 60 character? Because on a lvl 20 trial char I don't see Heroic Cache in Dungeon Finder part of /attwq.

But I see it in Pandaria->Heroic Deeds (one time quest). No, it's actually Bulging Heroic Cache, different one.

I just thought this issue was about what we put in the Group Finder manually.
