Since I'm not a big forum reader, and I usually only glance over patch notes for class-specific changes, sometimes I miss important details that apply to gameplay. Some of these have to do with the occasional changes to instances, and I rely on guildies to fill me on them.
One thing I've noticed is that a lot of people STILL leave random pugs when they zone in and find themselves in the Oculus, despite the fact that this zone was nerfed and Blizzard added extra rewards - a goodie bag after the final boss, as well as a chance at a Blue drake mount.
Now, I was notified of this change by a guildie when it came out, so I never abandon Oculus when it comes up as the selected dungeon. So this is just a tip to anyone who might be a casual like me and may not have been aware of the change - make sure that after the final boss everyone loots the chest to get their goodie bag (which contains 2 extra triumph badges as well as a blue gem). This makes the Oculus more than worthwhile.
