Do legendaries still drop in LFR even after clearing normal/heroic/mythic each week?

[Todesbote]

If I already did a full normal, heroic or mythic clear of Emerald Nightmare on my 880+ geared character this week does running LFR further increase my chances of getting a legendary?

I can't find any comments by Blizzard on this issue. Has anyone already received a legendary from LFR after he already cleared the raid on normal or heroic or mythic?

I'm sick of feeling like I have to do LFR each week to maximize my chances of getting my BiS legendary. Would be really nice to know that I don't miss out if I skip LFR on my character that completely outgears LFR anyways.

Before vs After *should* be irrelevant. Every kill should give another chance to drop as well as add to your bad luck protection count.
Happy farming.

(1) Yes
(2) Yes


and that is why my kids do LFR for me.

I'm sure LFR still gives you legendaries, no matter what. Seems pretty stupid if it didn't. I'm pretty sure I have received one of mine after clearing heroic.

And you more or less should do LFR regardless, for the runes.

So what? You can get legendaries by doing WQ, skirmishes or LFR, yes. The question is are you able to constantly do ALL activities that can reward legendary gear? My friend got one from normal violet hold dungeon the first day he got 110 lvl, but that doesn't mean he should do normals 24/7. Or does it?

I can confirm I recieved a legendary from killing a single LFR boss after having cleared 3/7 Mythic and 7/7 HC earlier that week.

I guess its more about maximizing chances for some ppl, some ppl are happy with what they do a day, and don't think about legendary chances, while others run M+ 3 chest runs 7 days 16 hours to get the biggest chance percentage wise. And then you have all players in between.

Running normals would indeed not be that efficient as the gain is minimal, but squeezing in a LFR run might be, as it also gives some runes, crystals if you are a enchanter, a reasonable chunk of AP if not unlucky and legendary chances even if you have killed the bosses before already on other diffs as i have seen it happen before, afaik on content like dungeon bosses / raid bosses / Worldbosses Loot Eligible also means Legendary chance. So for example running LFR once might yield results, running LFR 24/7 on the same char will not yield results.

i started raiding HC way before i got my lege from LFR... and did M+ in the meanwhile.
Anything you do you have a chance for lege.
LFR/N/HC/M, any box that gives gear, BG/arenas rated or not..., dungs from normal(yes that happened before my eyes) to M+15...
That's why they say... play and the lege will come eventually.
The system isn't bad.. what is bad is you can't target a specific one..

I doubt anyone can answer that question, not even Blizzard.
It's a stupid system so it would not surprise me if you could not get one from LFR after clearing the raid on another difficulty.

Legendaries don't even drop on LFR Anyways. I didn't get one from LFR. I only got Legendaries from Mythics and World Quests.

[Dieselol]

Yes It does, I got My Insignia of Ravenholdt from Nythendra LFR at the end of the weak after clearing the other difficulties ( I was farming Legendaries)

The hell they don't, I did all of LFR on my paladin yesterday and seen around 10 people total get a legendary.

Ontoipic: I'm sure they can't but I figured ill ask anyway. Can Legendary's drop in LFR on bosses u already looted in LFR that week. So for example if I cleared all of ToV can I clear it again and maybe get a legendary?

2 of my legendaries disagree with you.

Edit - Nevermind, 4, since i also had gotten legs from normal and hc EN.

It isn't an exact science but pretty much if it drops a purple it can drop an orange. Outside of the world drops from rando world/trash mobs.

Heroic dungeons also drop legendaries, but yeah.

Right, should have put that into the last line as well.

Yes Legendaries DO drop in LFR. Ive seen it myself as have other people.

For this I would guess no, since it's loot and you looted.

Well the last time I was in LFR. I didn't see any Legendaries drop in the LFR. Its pretty much coming from my experience with the pve content. I mostly see Legendaries drop from Mythic Dungeons to World Quests.

[Captain Unbreakable]

my second one dropped from halls of valor normal when i was farming the haft
