The Keys board is an early-tier Mythic+ organizer under Calendar. Post a key group with a day and time, grab a seat, and others fill the rest. Mark yourself in the Looking for a group pool if you don't have a group yet, or let Suggest draft group proposals from everyone who's looking.
What the Keys Board Is For
Early in a tier, before raid assignments settle in, a lot of the useful work a raid team does is gearing up in Mythic+. The Keys board gives your group one shared place to organize that: post a key group for a day and time, claim a seat, and let teammates fill the rest instead of coordinating group-finding over Discord.
Where to find it
The Keys board lives on your group page under Calendar > Keys.
Posting a Key Group
Open New key group
From the Keys view, click New key group. You can also arrive here pre-tagged with a dungeon from the M+ Loot board's "Form a key group" link.
Set the day and time
Pick a date and start time (shown in your group's server time zone).
Tag what you're planning to run (optional)
Toggle up to the season's dungeon chips if you already know what you're running. Leave it blank and the card shows auto-ranked dungeons your lineup still wants gear from instead.
Take your seat
Choose one of your claimed characters (or a guest) and the role it fills: Tank, Healer, or DPS.
Post the group
Click Post key group. It appears on the board under that day, with your seat filled and the rest open.
If you're already booked into another group at a clashing time, the dialog warns you (it doesn't block you) so you can decide if you can make both.
Joining a Group
Each key group card shows five seats: Tank, Healer, and three DPS. An open seat you can fill with one of your own characters shows a Join button; click it, pick the character, and add an optional note (leaving early, can also heal). You're seated immediately.
- The seat is open and one of your own characters can play that roleClick Join on that seat
- You're the group's creator or a group admin and want to pencil in someone else (a roster member, their alt, or a guest)Use Add on the seat instead
- You don't have a group yet and just want to be foundMark yourself in the Looking for a group pool
Organizer Seating
The group's creator and group admins can seat someone other than themselves into any open seat: another roster member and one of their characters, one of their own alts, or a free-typed guest name. This lets a raid lead build out a full group without waiting for everyone to self-join.
The Looking For A Group Pool
If you don't have a group yet, mark yourself in the Looking for a group pool (in the rail beside the board). Pick which of your claimed characters you can bring, and optionally the windows you're free that week. Leave the windows blank and you're shown as free anytime. Other members can see you're looking, and Suggest can draft you into a proposal.
Anyone who has wishlisted Mythic+ gear also shows a couple of dungeon chips on their pool entry, so a group organizer can see what you're after at a glance.
Suggest: Advisory Group Proposals
Click Suggest groups above the board to open the Suggest panel. It reads everyone currently in the Looking for a group pool and drafts proposed groups: filling empty seats on existing key groups first, then drafting brand-new groups from whoever's left over.
Suggest never creates or joins anything on its own. Each proposal is a dashed "ghost" card; you review it and click Join or Create + join to actually apply your own seat. Anyone can dismiss a proposal they don't want.
Suggest offers two strategies:
| Strategy | What it optimizes for |
|---|---|
| Loot | Groups people who still want gear from the same dungeons, using each player's Mythic+ wishlist demand. |
| Buffs | Groups for raid utility: Bloodlust, battle res, physical and magic vulnerability debuffs, and a melee/ranged mix. |
Loot mode is hidden for roles that can't see loot wishlists, and Suggest defaults to Buffs for them. If a proposed seat would clash with a booking you already have, Suggest still offers it but asks you to confirm before applying it.
What Each Card Shows
- Seats: five roles (Tank, Healer, 3 DPS), each showing who's in it, their class color, and whether they're a guest, off-spec, or can flex to another spec.
- Dungeon demand: which dungeons this exact lineup still wants gear from, pulled from the group's Mythic+ wishlists (or the dungeons you tagged when creating the group). See Loot & Wishlists for how wishlist demand is built.
- Coverage: whether the seated lineup covers Bloodlust and battle res, plus the armor-type spread.
- Needs: which roles are still open, or a "Full group" badge once every seat is filled.
The week strip above the board gives a quick per-day read on group and LFG counts and open seats, and clicking a day filters the board down to it.
Editing and deleting a key group
The group's creator and group admins can edit a posted group's day, time, note, and tagged dungeons from the overflow menu on its card, or delete it outright. Deleting removes the group and everyone seated in it; this can't be undone.
