It'd actually be pretty funny (and I'd welcome myself to using them, even) if LFR versions of raids gave lesser titles. Like, what I mean in theory is if there's "Kingslayer", for example, the LFR version would be "Attempted Kingslayer" or "Defender of a Shattered World" would be "Observer of a Shattered World", you could really have fun with that. They could do things like that for all difficulties. For Emerald Nightmare? "The Sleeper". For Nighthold "Vengeance Discarnate"
I don't think the main incentive to enter LFR should be gearing up, but sightseeing and transmog, pet and mount collecting.
You can pug a full EN clear in 2 hours with a mediocre group. Keep digging for excuses for doing the absolute minimum. I raid with a guy that plays for 2 hours max on raid nights and we cleared 13/13 with no issue. If you want to raid, or do anything for that matter, you can do it with time constraints very easily.

Nah. Get good and get the real titles.
Well Mythic has been cleared in less than a day. Would hardly call that needing to dedicate a good chunk of life to the game. Also yes correct. You want to partake in greater rewards then be prepared to put more time in to achieve that reward. Like nearly every RPG both single and multiplayer.
Because I've no time for your silliness?
Nah, hard pass.

I'm not bothered by it.
I just disagree that it should exist.
There are enough titles for your joke/casual/cosmetic achievements. Use one of those instead. You want the raid title, do the raid that rewards the title.
FOMO: "Fear Of Missing Out", also commonly known as people with a mental issue of managing time and activities, many expecting others to fit into their schedule so they don't miss out on things to come. If FOMO becomes a problem for you, do seek help, it can be a very unhealthy lifestyle..
If it were up to me, there'd be a ton of titles. If anything, titles are kind of wasted. That's like mega-easy content to add. Especially compared to mounts, pets, and the like. Thousands of them! More variety! More things for people to have next to their name. Fuck, anything that allows more customization would be great.
The whole point of mmo's is character progression.
Gating that behind only raiding leaves those time restricted one's and those who don't want to raid out of it. That is not good nor smart game design. Not that I care about lfr as I only do each wing once for the achievements, but I'm simply pointing this out. Maybe it makes makes more sense to you now?
Yall sure do like to make assumptions.
I haven't set foot in a raid this expansion. In no expansion prior have I ever coveted a title enough to cry and whine to get the prereq lowered. I run around with the valentine's day title, lol.
And again, my guild has historically cleared every expansion (save mop) at it's highest difficulty as current content. I cba about titles, but I think that hard content should offer exclusive rewards. Whether or not I actively participate in it.
I got an 885 TF Bloodthirsty Instinct from LFR the other day.
Base Ilvl is honestly pointless. People seem to keep forgetting stuff can WF and TF proc. And as it stands I get more WF procs than non WF proc gear, and occasional TF procs.
I just wish the LFR hunter set wasn't so fucking beautiful...
