Would there be outrage if LFR started to drop Blue items?

[Dukenukem]

I know its not just color swap (rare have different stat distribution on same ilvl than Epic) but that can be fixed (just adjust ilvl).

The main Question is: Would people doing LFR as main source of gear/fun/content find it ofending to be forced to wear Blue instead of purple? (same stats, only diferent color with the same "Raid Finder" label under name)

My goodness. are you still crying about your ´purples´ that make you special?

[Frozenbeef]

no but why would anyone want that? :P

[Kisho]

Would such a change make heroic raiders happier? If yes, those heroic raiders need to re-adjust their priorities.

LFR is a raid. Raids drop epics. Deal with it.

[Darsithis]

I'm sure someone would get mad. I don't really care; I focus specifically on the stats I need. But I also am a 25 man N raider, so it only affects my alts.

there would be an outrage. Not from me, but from other people I'm sure.

[The Glitch]

colour to me doesn't matter, an upgrades an upgrade, I don't get this weird obsession folks have with epics. I've seen people get rid of blues that were superior to an epic, just because it was purple.. So for me so long as stuff gives us progression ie. upgrades then it doesn't matter to me if its green, blue, purple or poop coloured lol.

[DarkAxius]

I think all dungeon/raid items should lose their colourings and be white or green text. Make random world drops blue or purple for denomination based on the likelihood of them dropping.

If LFR dropped blues, that means all the non-raid crafted gear would also be blues as well as DMF trinkets.

I think judging by this threads response, your answer is yes.

[Asmekiel]

For all I care they make all items pink. People like the OP will cry tears of joy, the rest of the world will carry on like nothing happened.
To answer why LFR drops epics, people wanted epics to drop from raids and not from dungeons. Now this is happening and it's still not enough, I don't get it.

[Howard Moon]

Silly question. Of course it would cause an outrage. Anything Blizz does causes an outrage, be it good or bad.

Perhaps Raiders should get exclusive sparkly rainbow items to make them feel like special princesses ?

Like this and then every extra epic you get adds more sparkles

[Deleted]

Exactly plus a THE IMPORTANT title

[freakyduck]

It doesn't matter. It won't change now because people are too used to the color scheme we have now. To change it would cause way too many problems. OP's hypothetical question is pointless.

Is that why the "Challenge Mode" gear is all about adding lights and light effects to the character?

[Dasffion]

Gear has been more about ilvl than color for a long time now. Why are we still on questions like this?

[Rivellana]

I only hit 90 a few weeks ago, and we haven't raided much since then. My blues, however, seem to be working just fine for normal mode raids. I wouldn't care if LFR only dropped blues as long as the stats were there.

However, I'm quite sure there would be some people who would be upset that the gear wasn't purple.

[Jacob6875]

What would be the point? You can easily tell that gear is from raid finder as it (hit it says raid finder in green letters on it) so what would be the point of making it blue instead of purple.

[Deleted]

I don't care about the colour as long as it works and makes me hit for bigger numbers I'm happy.
