Hey everyone!
 
As we announced earlier this week, new features in the Redmoon Mutiny content update are soon going live on the Public Test Realm, and we want to give more details on what’s coming so all of you can get in there and help us test them. So! Without further ado, here is a list of the new features that will be available:
Redmoon Terror Raid, Phase 2
Cross-faction groups, including raid groupsNeither Adventures nor World Story instances are currently supported for cross-faction groups
Cross-faction PvP Arena Teams
Cross-faction Guilds
Cross-faction Circles
Cross-faction Neighbors
Cross-faction Friends
PvP Leaderboards
There are a few base rules to understand in terms of how cross-faction groups will work. Cross-faction groups are created in the same way that groups are created in the game now. You cannot be flagged for PvP if you want to be in a cross-faction group, and if you become flagged, you will be dropped from the group. This means that certain actions, such as dueling, will be restricted within them. We have tried to account for edge cases with clear messaging, but please make sure to report any irregularities that you see while testing.
 
All of these features are scheduled to be released on the PTR Tuesday, October 18. We encourage you to jump in and put them through their paces, and look forward to hearing your feedback!

This is great news, I'm happy for everyone but especially for Dommies. I think this will be a great social bump.
 
Also gonna say thank you for delivering this clarification of exactly what new changes are coming. Seeing circles, guilds, and neighbours on that list is most excellent.
 
My only question would be whether players have the ability to opt-out of cross-faction neighbours. I'm guessing that you've done it so we can set x-faction neighbour status but can't randomly visit the other faction? I know some RPers wouldn't want random people from the other faction dropping in unannounced. :P

Whoohoo! Cross-faction raiding!
Groups as in dungeons and open world? Questing etc.? We can heal our cross faction tanks?

Cross-faction PvP Arena Teams

			Oh shit! Gotta start leveling a Chua!	
----
			So with cross faction neighbors, this means that you'll be able to visit the housing plot of someone on the other faction as long as you're on their Neighbor list?

That's basically cross-faction everything that could be cross-faction. Here is my hat and my message of approval:
 
I approve!

			Finally xfac housing.. getting ready to clear my neighbors list so the dommies can come over and party with us.. 	
----
			One thing to say: better late than never. Shame it is so late and so many players have left before.	
----
			Very good changes. Would it be possible to also introduce cross faction healing for non pvp flagged players? 	
----
			Woo! Cross faction housing! 	
----
			Oh, I sure hope cross-faction Circles come with a Circle cap increase, because if not... xD	
----
			That housing! Wonderful news! <3
