What is faction tag wow

Faction tagging especially feels out of place if we are constantly working together and in certain cases acting as neutral parties like we did in Legion. In the case of Shadowlands, where our entire mortal lives are basically irrelevant, even moreso. We are once again working together.

I hope we see a change some time. It would honestly be for the better. I ran across a pair of gnomes who were leveling as well. We took turns tagging mobs and helping each other out. It was loads of fun and we did it for several days.

The tap remains even if other players participate in damaging the mob. Tapping is usually exclusive to a group, faction or number of players. Once a limit is reached, crowd control effects and quest items return an error message "Target is tapped", and unit frames turn gray for other players now ineligible to tap the mob. These limits have generally become more inclusive to non-grouped players as the game has evolved:.

In Classic it is considered good etiquette to invite other players to your party if you intend to tap the same mob. In Retail this custom does not apply since five ungrouped players may tap the same mob; however, other players might welcome coordinating cues shared through speech and emotes. Conversely, it is poor etiquette -- even griefing -- for one player to use the tap system to prevent other players from completing quests or playing the game.

Examples include tapping multiple mobs to keep others from doing, or rushing to tap one when another player was clearly about to engage it first.
