As already said, it won't work cross-region, but thought I'd mention
language doesn't matter, only location :-) I'm on an English EU realm,
can't group with you Americans crossrealm, even though we (almost ;-))
share a language (as we're in totally different data systems) but can
group with anyone from any other European language realm. I've even
seen Russian realm players in worldboss groups on my realm (and those
Russian characters cause havoc with player tooltips lol, had to bug
report that as the tooltip was 3* the height of any other player's
tooltip) - massive language differences (and we can't even log into
the same realms, at least, it won't let me play on a Russian realm,
even though every other language is fine), but can still cross-realm
group.
