See what I mean? v v v v v Elitests, elitests everywhere. I think if they were ever to even accept LFR as a tier of raiding albeit the tourism that it is their lives would shatter.

Lol so you want them to lock the door to star augur when you literally have to kill his trash to get to botanist?
You want them to swap loot tables just for lfr instead maybe?
lmao

"elitism"
Ya man I'm sure being an elitist because I call an unguided tour of a raid an unguided tour.
Raids have things that LFR doesn't have. Let's do them one at a time.
First thing a raid has that an unguided LFR tour has? A raid lead.
calling lfr players raiders is about as silly as calling a kid with a go-kart an official nascar driver.
Whether you like it or not, by definition LFR IS a raiding difficulty. You feel that it is not based on the lack of difficulty. You look down on this version of your raid and that is Elitism.
It might be a tour, it might be the simplest of faceroll content, but factually you cannot say it is not a Raid difficulty because it is. All you can do is hold your nose up and point at those who actually use it.
Whether you realise it or even accept it, if you do this you ARE being Elitest.
Another one with attempt at humour thrown in to boot.
Nice you didn't even attempt to address the point that unlike a raid, lfr has no leader or direction.
Yet I'm being "elitest" (dunno if that even is a word) because I point that out, cool.
Want to move on to the 2nd reason why LFR isn't raiding yet or wanna "dispute" (read: ignore) this point more?
You can tell it's a JustRob thread when there's pointless swearing in the thread title and a massive amount of whinging and self-entitlement in his rants.
I've been consistently raiding at a similar level for almost 12 years now and schedules, at least from my experience, have only helped me organize me better overall. During the first 8 years, when i was finishing school and going through college, my guildies were in similar spots, so the hours were always times where no social life was threatened and many of us, including myself, have had girlfriends that were completely unrelated with the game (still with my girl for 13 years now). Farming or preparing for raids is always the mundane part of it, but it became a routine for most of us very quickly (the core of the guild, around 14 players, have been around since then).
My guild currently occupies rank 11 world, and do guilds like ours actually care about LFR or what LFR users do? No, not really. When we group to go farm runes in LFR, we take no notice in what their normal users do. We play our game, and as long as that isn't impaired, we dont care. For us it's no different from doing weekly quests like timewalking.
We ofcourse have our own opinion on LFR, and it's definately not positive. However we see the value it poses to others, and even if we disagree the purpose it holds and the place it has in the game, we won't go around posting it should be removed since we understand others "like" it.

Someone that plays Normal: "Those carebears in LFR? Ah! Git gud and raid Normal. 'Real' Raiders. haha"
Someone that plays Heroic: "Those carebears in Normal? Ah! Git gud and raid Heroic. 'Real' Raiders. haha"
Someone that plays Mythic: "Those carebears in Heroic? Ah! Git gud and raid Mythic. 'Real' Raiders. haha"
Someone who doesn't play WoW: "Those carebears in WoW? Ah! Git gud and l2Life. haha"

On topic, what is the current reasoning to have LFR gated as much as it is?
I don't need to address what it does or does not have compared to Normal and up. It is still a raid difficulty regardless. Why I hear you not caring to ask? Because the company that made the game calls it a raid difficulty. Your opinion whether shared by many or few is irrelevant.

No, you aren't an elitest because you point something out, you're an elitest because you look down on something or someone who you consider to be less than you. They might actually be less skilled than you, I'm not trying to defend LFR for what it is.
Haha, exactly what I was trying to say with my first post.
Sure, people can have all the wings at once in LFR but the cost of that would be them being locked out of loot in Normal, Heroic and Mythic Difficulties
"How you build your character is not a feature of a MMORPG, it is the feature. Everything else is secondary even the gameplay itself is secondary to building your character, its the kind of stuff you think about when you are at work or school and couldnt wait to go home to play WoW or Diablo 2. We have all done it." ~Into, 2016
But, would you call the kid with a go-kart a racer?
No one here is claiming an LFR Raider a Mythic Raider, because that is you what you are suggesting. If that is use as a comparison, then no-one can claim anything unless they compete at the highest level.
That is not football, they are just throwing a pigskin around.
I mean, if they would release AFK (LFR) content at the same time like normal/heroic then take loot out of lfr and i am fine with it.
ROFLMAO! the new mmo copypasta

I'm using LFR to gear up my alts. So by the time they are ready to be geared, all of the wings will be open. In the meantime, i pug normals, do mythics, and WQ's. 880 ilvl rating on my main(which im not bragging, cause it's not THAT high compared to others), haven't stepped foot in a heroic, and play maybe an hour or two each night
What gear level does LFR have compared to dungeons/WQs? LFR should offer no higher than dungeons imo. LFR IS a good way to see content and should have some thing to encourage others to do it besides that but other than gearing up to give people that want to move to normal, I'll agree the gear shouldn't be equivalent to normal.
Video game isn't exactly how I want it so I cry like bitch.
