    It's like opening a chest with a loot inside but you cannot do anything else for 30 min. Nobody will refuse the loot but nobody enjoys the concept.
    If you're actively going afk, plenty of us will call you out and vote to kick you; plain and simple. In my observations, the visceral feelings over LFR come from people who do this stuff because they "think" everybody else is doing it. To quote a friend, that's an iss'you'.

    That said, having people pull trash to the spawn point between augur/bot was poison and killed the raid (literally and metaphorically) because new players would come in, die instantly, and leave.

    You don't have that many kicks. Also you can't kick in combat. Ninja pull > afk > repeat. Or do nothing and fly under the radar.

    Just went in their a complete Star Auger virgin, as was the other tank. We got the tank stuff sorted before we even pulled the first time. Had 2 wipes due to bad DPS, but got it on the 3rd.

    Killed all the bosses one shot without problems, however we had a bunch of wipes on Botanist trash that kept getting ninja pulled to spam stun and silence on the group.

    Kicked one healer who intentionally kept pulling extra trash with the excuse that "it's LFR lol".

    I ran it on LFR yesterday. First pull, hunter heros on pull, too many people dead for p3. Second pull, offtank gets feared by EVERY SINGLE WHISPER THE VOID. Kick tank. Third pull, I call out instructions during the whole fight, only 1 person dies. It shows that most of the fails on Star Auger are just a lot of people didn't know the fight. His dps requirement is on point for LFR and mechanics were removed. Once everyone knows what to do, he's really easy.

    Because, many of them refuse the effort needed. Basically, there's lots of people who will hit a wall, and then simply quit rather than try to climb that wall. They don't play the game competitively or for a challenge, but rather in " story mode." That's just how it is. There's a Ghostcrawler quote that's appropriate here, but rather than butcher it with a misquote, I summon he who has it in his forum signature.

    What could actually cause problems with Star Augur? Even on Heroic it feels the hard part of the fight is the numbers required. The mechanics themselves are quite basic but the fight is brilliant because of its theme and tuning.

    The only hard part about Auger is getting a raid full of LFR players to not facepull him when half the group is outside the room.

    Star Augur wasn't that hard for me. We whiped once because everyone ignored the add. The other 2 were easy one shots.

    You can wipe on any of them if you try hard enough. Maybe we should just ask Blizz to remove all offensive abilities from LFR bosses.

    People play with randoms all the time in higher level mythics and have no issues.

    Nighthold LFR is beyond easy, easier than Emerald Nightmare and Trials of Valor. When Trials of Valor first came out, if many people didn't at least read the Dungeon Journal your group would wipe on Odyn and Guarm. So having one Boss in Nighthold LFR so far that you actually have to think to beat seems fine. Lfr should be easy, but not easier than a regular dungeon.

    I find it most fascinating how fucking inept people are at killing adds or facing away when the add does a really long cast.

    My point is if Star is so easy and a faceroll good time that people never wipe on. Why do people avoid it and hate it?
    On Heroic I get the hate.

    On Mythic I DEFINITELY get the hate.

    Normal? Really? People are having difficulty on normal? It's like 1 step above pure tank and spank. Tich and Spellblade are both much more complex fights (relatively speaking at least). I'm not saying you are wrong, but I'm just surprised to hear this. (maybe I shouldn't be though)

    Been able to combat kick since BRF.

    LFR in Pandaria was way more fun, it offered challenge and actual gear worth getting. I miss it so much, one of the reasons I adored MoP.
