For some people who use LFR, they struggle in LFR, even when heroic raiders like me farming sigils of wisdom are carrying the bulk of the "responsibility" that exists in LFR (hell, I single kited Garalon this week and was still top damage, by a lot, because they cap pungency at 20 stacks, lol). For them, it's more of an individual struggle, to avoid mechanics, do good DPS, etc. And that can be epic enough for them - if it isn't, that's the hunger that pushes them to normal modes and then heroic modes.
