For those that have not yet had a chance to play WAR; the open party grouping system, and public quests are ridiculously good and easy to use. You can open a window and immediately see and search through all groups in the same zone as you. You can automatically join those groups then travel to meet them. Also, public quests are basically PUG raids with out the need to actually PUG. Just by helping out in a public quest you are basically treated as being part of a raid consisting of everyone in the public quest area. You get rewarded for participation (including healing and tanking) and you don't even have to stay to the end to get a reward.
