    Similar suggestions were made for standard raids as well. To have so me kind of raid currency to get boss drops while content is still current and not in next year or next life.

    I am all up for it, but not on LFR-only level. System must be improved globally, as lottery is quite old and unfair system.

    This is the reason why I'm convinced that everyone who says or thinks they're smart are really just average. Maybe a little below. We're talking about another level of JP/VP here. That's not a brilliant idea. That's adding an extra currency to WoW for LFR.

    How about this: every time you down a boss in LFR, the exact piece of loot you need at the moment drops. And if there's nothing you can use from that specific boss, instead you get a mount.

    There IS NO problem with LFR loot.

    In fact... people who SAY there's a problem with LFR loot now, because they can't even need on other peoples items for gold anymore, so it doesnt feel worthwhile going in if they don't get anything at all back... THESE people are the problems that there were with LFR before.

    Blizzard has fixed this now.

    It's funny because most of them advocating the position that lfr shouldn't have gear is acting like they raid for the pure purpose of "seeing content". By and large the truth is they are greedy assholes. They want it all for themselves and nothing for other people. Even the pittance you get from LFR is to much. Far to much. I mean they raid, their raiding time is far more valuable than anything you and i do. We should just suck it up and be happy. The reality is they absolutely feel entitled to lord over you and I with their raiding gear. They feel entitled to being special cause their time as raiders is more valuable.

    Who are you to decide what i need or what i dont need? Also selling items from lfr wouldnt be such a gold earner since you cant trade gold to ppl from other servers, and I have about 1.4mill gold atm so i need gear more then i need gold + that 28.5g you get from bag is a disrespect to ppl.

    The purpose of normal/heroics is to raid (yes actually do real raids/raiding) and obtain gear/other rewards so why would you remove the reason for them?

    I can find you several blue posts stating the only purpose of Looking for Retard is to see the content if you like. There is no reason for gear to be involved... So remove all gear from lfr and problem solved.

    Exactly.

    Seen it in EQ2 in spades (where it's even worse, as top raid guilds control the economy), and then they wonder why no one plays the game? They chased everyone away for their selfishness. Very short sighted greedy guys only in it for themselves.

    Can't wait for the day devs finally stop enabling them with candy, and tell them to goto the gym, instead. The game will survive fine without them.

    Same with normal raid, you can do it in blues you get from hc dungeons, so kill bosses with them and see content , end of story...

    TBh thats true, there are more ppl who play this game for loot and fun then there are HC raiders, or ppl who have time to do normal raids in set time/date... many times more.

    There are many things I am "acting like [sic]". Let me share a few of them:

    -I'm acting like LFR was created to see content and Raiding was created for progression (which is loot yes)
    -I'm acting like Raiding actually takes some skill, coordination and cooperation and LFR doesn't
    -I'm acting like people who do heroic dungeons deserve loot a whole lot more than people who go semi-afk and get carried through LFR
    -I'm acting like people shouldn't expect loot out of LFR, and be happy with the system as it is
    -I'm acting like I am entitled to raid rewards, yes, because I raid. If you are doing LFR, you do not.
    -I'm acting like if I make the time to do normal raids, and invest in my character, I deserve the associated rewards. That is all.
    -I'm acting like your argument makes even a tiny amount of sense, when in reality you just seem to complain and change your view every second post in order to rant

    I came in here to suggest the LFR loot system is fine as it is, although it could be more transparent, and to remind people what LFR really is and who it is for. Sorry that this somehow offends you, but that is the state of the game we play.

    And if feedback is always useful, then my feedback is just as relevant (if not more relevant) than yours.

    Your personal situation of "an army of tradeskillers" seems like the exception and not the rule.

    I would have to see much harder evidence before I begin changing my attitude towards players based on the assumption that maybe LFR is "all they can do".

    Let me know which part of this you take issue with.

    Blizzard tried to fix the realm unbalances with transfers. Been offering transfers for years now. It doesn't fix the problem. So if Blizzard can't fix it, I know these "suggestions" won't either.

    So Luciferiuz, are you stating your suggestion works when Blizzard can't even get it to work???

    ...Logic...

    If you think free server transfers from High Pop (see: popular) servers to Low Pop (see: dead) servers work at the same rate of efficiency as elective transfers to servers with an established active population that you can preview well ahead of time then we don't have much more to talk about.

    All I am saying is "my server doesnt raid so everyone should treat me nicer for just doing LFR" is both unrealistic and a cop out.

    When you start putting money where that mouth is, it gets rather expensive.

    I'm sure after losing a couple hundred dollars (as that is how much it'll cost to move my toons to another realm), you'll finally see the bigger picture why your "solution" is the cop out.

    LFR is fine for the moment. I only hope it expands to normal/heroic raids next.

    Not sure how many times I have to say this, but I'll reiterate a third time in bold just for you.

    You are not who I was talking about. I was talking about reasonable people who raid on one (unsupported) character.

    Especially since you haven't even done LFR on your pally, who has two primary professions so I'm not sure how he would require support from your wide range of "necessary" alts. My solution isn't for you, but equally I've never heard of anyone who needs more than 1-2 characters to support their main and judging by your raid progress (or lack thereof) I highly doubt you do either.

    Then wtf are we talking about. Cross server raids/hms would be good - just not if you had to queue for them.

    lol

    I dinged 90 last week. It's obvious since I don't even have the reps open to meet the LFR ilvl requirement. Let alone I'm more interested in getting CP gear, as the stats are similar to LFR gear anyway, and I only need one set of gear to heal in PvE and PvP.

    Terrific!

    Odd part of my post to fixate on, but anyway.

    You don't need rep to do LFR or to get the ilvl, I was 462 in about 3 days.

    Conq gear is def better tho. Still I'm unsure as to why you are debating whether or not LFR is working as intended when you obviously have no idea what you are talking about but whatever.

    Not so odd, since you mentioned it.

    You may gotten to LFR in 3 days, but you're also spending 3 days complaining about it too.

    Maybe if you spent 2 weeks enjoying the other aspects of the game, you wouldn't be in your predicament.

    LFR is something you queue for and then faceroll in order to see what the bosses look like and get some watered-down idea of their mechanics.

    LFR has never been intended as a place for you to gear up regularly, it is a bonus for people who wouldn't otherwise get to participate in raid content.

    Just because you use it for gear doesn't make that it's intended purpose - much like if you wear your shoe as a hat, it might work but it's not recommended.

    So no, you deserve nothing. Take your valor points and be happy if you end up with a bonus.
    Seeing as you obviously didn't read my earlier post, and/or need to hear it again, I will quote it:

    HEY ARSHOLE! STOP REFERRING TO THE LFR AS "FREE LOOT" AND AS "NOTHING"! MAYBE IN YOUR ELITIST SELFISH WOW WORLD IT IS, BUT FOR MANY OF US, THE LFR IS OUR ENTIRE WOW WORLD THESE DAYS! TAKE YOUR LOOT YOU GET FROM REAL RAIDING AND STICK IT UP YOUR ARS - MAYBE JUST YOU SHOULD GET NO LOOT BECAUSE YOU SELFISHLY BEGRUDGE OTHERS DESIRE TO GET IT! IF YOU CARE SO LITTLE ABOUT LFR, THEN GO AWAY TO ANOTHER FORUM POST - HOWEVER, IF YOU RUN LFR AND ARE HAPPY TO GET A SINGLE OF PIECE OF LOOT, THEN SHUT UP! YOU KNOW FULL WELL THAT THE PURPOSE OF THE LFR IS TO GET LOOT - OTHERWISE YOU WOULDN'T BE RUNNING IT AT ALL - YOU'D JUST BE DOING "REAL RAIDING"! OBVIOUSLY YOUR TOO GOOD AT WOW FOR US, WHO FIND THAT THE LFR AT LEAST TAKES TIME AND EFFORT, AND EXPECT THAT THE REWARDS COULD BETTER FIT THE EFFORT WE PUT FORTH!

    If you're too good to find the lfr challenging, don't do it! Its not completely easy for everyone. You elitist raiding jerks too selfish to consider lesser players make me sick!

    He's already bragging he got into LFR in 3 days. Yet he's spending more time complaining about loot due to skipping content.

    Sure didn't get his rep gear in 3 days, so he went in expecting others to push him through for gear.

    Typical mindset of such types.
