That fight has been out since November and people still don't know it. Can we hold them accountable now?
There comes a point in a patch where people should know a fight. I usually set the benchmark at about 6 weeks. Even if you came back right at the beginning of a patch, 6 weeks is more than enough to gear up and have a few of the relevant LFRs under your belt to know what's going on.
The problem is, people go into a fight, don't know what's going on, don't say anything, roll face on the keyboard, end the fight still not knowing what's going on, and then don't bother to find out ever because they think they can win without knowing anything. There's no incentive to learning the fight in LFR. At all. On LFR-Sha last tier, most of the melee would stand in the circle of light with my tank, right click on the boss, and then come back in 10 minutes - because they could win the fight that way and they didn't need to know anything else.
