World of Warcraft/Grouping

Grouping
Groups allow a team of players to work together and share experience and loot.

The first place that you may want to use a group is a quest that requires you to kill a bunch of something. As a group you will kill them faster and all of you will get the quest credit for killing them. Another good time to group is when there are a bunch of players all waiting for the same monster to respawn so they can kill it for a quest.

Creating a Group
You can form a group just by right clicking on another player's portrait and selecting invite from the dropdown menu. Or type /invite followed by the player's name.

A group can be from 2 to 5 players, if you want to have more then 5 players start a group, and then convert to a Raid group.

Party Chat
Members of a group can chat privately with each other by typing /p and then the message.

Buff's
Groups also share some buffs like Aspect of the Pack, Aspect of the Wild, and Blood pact.

Locating your group
Member locations show on both the mini map and the world map.
