LFR looks a lot to LFD nobody speak to anybody unless they die (nice noob!), I hate when people just leaves after last boss dies so the the people waiting for rolls has to stay there for N minutes until seeing if they won something.

add to that when the next fight started by someone that saw the raid full and thought the 25 people were going to stay for next boss but some of them are just waiting for rolls to end and bail.

Oh Jobbie,

Getting prepared for a LFR is like getting prepared to play tic tac toe. It's not really that kind of game...

LoL! This is so true, did my first LFR last night and it was pure faceroll, only Krisnatharok was on tryhard mode complaining for mana. It is all aboutgetting 372 item level from HoT heroics and get in and faceroll.

Question for you veterans.

Is it faster to queue as dps or tank? Hoping I can get on my hunter first to experience the fights after reading them instead of trying to tank it and possibly wiping a group.

i did 4 weeks of Tanking on my Dk yesterday i got 3 pieces, besides those i only had 2 pieces from LFR .
Over geared people insist in grouping with noobs in their guild and roll on their token.

I also proved this myself, As a healer i unequipped a trinket at the end of the fight before rolls started, i Won my Healer trinket, same with DK, I won (another) Resolve of the Undying, and i was 2 roll points away from getting godamn Gurthalak, a warrior got it but he was doing 12k dps on Madness >:O I (as tank) was doing about 29k.
So yea, its Blizz's way of saying "Strip for me if u want this!"

cigtyme posted : I also do not think there is any buff/nerf. What happened is geared players are fewer in number. Most people go 8/8 which is 800 valor. 900 if you do easy BH boss. 1 Heroic finishes this off. at 1000. Also other then selling Valor boots and bracers, Valor is almost useless to raiders that or 8/8, or better yet, in heroics.

At the beginning, People with geared toons were in there getting 4 piece plus other items, now they have all the equivilant 397 or higher stuff. Most people also have alts that dont need LFR anymore.

All this causes more bads and asshats in there, instead of good compitant players.

Urban Dictionary def for Asshat:

2. asshat
A person, of either gender, whose behavior displays such ignorance/obnoxiousness that you would like to make them wear their own ass as a hat.

Usage: "Can you believe that my boss is making me stay until 9 pm on a Friday!?" "What an asshat."

and

describing when one's head is so far up one's ass that one is wearing the ass as a hat. in other words, extreme stupidity.

or it could have been the 6 dps dieing to Hour of Twilight because pushing a giant green button is hard.

or our Combat Rezs getting wasted on them just to have them die during the NEXT Hour of Twilight.

or the Tank who would/could not pick up the drakes during the pre event. a note for you warrior. Dead Warlocks/Priests/mages cant tank.

or the RAID that refused to kick the tards after the 2nd wipe..

On a side note :

My guild does LFR Runs at 630 (server time) with invites going out at 615. At 650 most of the guild was not ready/online to get the run going. I afk to help the wife clean up, posting this in Raid and Guild chat. I come back at 703 to find myself kicked from the run because "I took too long".....

I just spent 30 mins waiting for other people after being on time for the run just to be kicked because i took 10 mins to get a few things done.

Venom1 posted : i thought an asshat was the same as a trampstamp... just not as skanky, there-by not actually having any use; just taking up space that could better be used by something (dare I say anything) else.

but to tangentialize my rhetoric from your comment, these asshats are abusing the loot system to benefit from other people without contributing to the whole. Or they are blatantly doing things wrong without any intention of changing, and if they respond to any chastizement it is usually some elitist rant. Anonimity too can be abused.

s1deout posted : My favorite thing to do in LFR as I am usually that 2nd tank is to run around on Hagraa and teabag all the people who die to ice walls of death or ice dropping from above.

Sometimes I do have to end up tanking on that fight though as my 2nd fav thing is watching the other tank eat the Furious till he dies.

Actually , I pretty much run around and teabag anyone in LFR who dies to mechanics.

It makes the run more enjoyable for me. I even macro it on my bear tank so it says -
"One furry testicle or two with your ballsack tea??"

Ah the joys of LFR.

Well Zonnoz is one tank fight so no big issue, came Yor'sahj and he died 3 times on trash.. I /inspect him and he wasn't even on tank spec much less gear, after the 4th death I tell him that if he could please put some tank gear or at least go blood spec.

His Response was "We always one tank this sh*t, shut the f**k up you Mal'ganis Elitist F*g" and was kicked from the LFR.. (it was a semi guild run it seemed)

After a quick report for direct insults I re-Q'd got instant pop as healer, luckilly same 2/8 run ready to pull boss and breezed thru the 2 last bosses with no tank issues.

Usually I go around bouncing the ball if the tank points the boss the wrong way.

I get the inevitable "YOU DON'T NEED TO BOUNCE IT IN LFR JACKASS" but hey, I like it when the boss takes extra damage. And having a healer do it means they can keep themselves alive and handle dispels.

Sometimes when you step in a pile of shit... you are able to wipe your boot immediately.... other times... you just have to deal with having shit on your boots until the time comes when you can scrape the shit off without getting it in your car/house or on your clothes. Shit happens.

I could reasonably just sit on my hands the whole fight. I'm not sure how other people do it...

Kudos to you, Mr. Heroic Gurthalak. (Mr. Heroic Gurthalak!)

You joined LFR and on Madness you started doing 70k DPS (that's a lot of damage!)

But you did it all on the wings and arms, so the corruption died very slow every time, and the bolt hit each time as well (LFR doesn't matter)

And the last platform you brought the tentacle low enough to spawn blistering tentacles at the same time the bolt and 2nd impales hit, all by yourself! (someone pick up the tank!)

So thanks, Mr. Heroic Gurthalak. Your contributions to the fight made all our dicks shrink in relation to yours, because clearly recount is more important than doing the fight right (ow my BALLLLLLS)

last phase was the same think the 2 big adds running around and killing some peeps... a feral kitty had to go bear to control them.. luckilly we had some nice healers and pro dps carrying the group.

Fail

On a nicer note i was one of only 2 hunters and the Agl Waist dropped from warmaster, The other hunter who had a 397 belt won it and said he would give it to me if he couldn't trade it.

DW dies and drops the Hunter/feral Staff and 3x daggers. The hunter gives me the waist and i win the staff :)

Nick D posted : I'm still confused as to how that works. And I'm posting my questions here in hopes that someone has read something clarifying elsewhere.

If you "win" (the definition of which seems to be TBD; top 10? roll above a number on a /roll 100? I think I read something saying they were undecided), you get a piece of loot from the boss's loot table that your spec can use (I assume this will be smarter than it is currently and not ship boomkins agility rings). Is the entire loot table from that boss, or just 1 of the things that "dropped"? If there's multiple things that could be useful for you, such as a tier piece and bracers let's say, do you get 1 randomly, or do you get to choose?

Examples using current bosses very acceptable.

pp03 posted : After reading over the mists postings at other websites I believe they fixed LFR looting in the best possible way that they can.

I like the idea of gear dropping solely for each individual in that setting. I almost wish they'd do it for everything that is using a pug tool. Don't really want to see it for regular raids, but I'd be ok with it in regular 5 mans.

We'll see how it turns out, but this and AoE looting were way over due IMO.

djlar posted : I also hate the douchebag that won't switch from the limbs to the corruption, they cause only grief and try to pad their meters..

The limbs start aoeing at 90% and increased aoe damage every 5%, also the corruption is up way more time, by the time it's dead the blood adds are already spawned, also the bolt always explodes.

By the time every add is down the limb is doing massive aoe damage, healers can barely keep up.. each platform makes it worse as buffs are lost, so on the 4th platform with tenticle aoe damage on top is a likely wipe.
