A fun little social experiment: ability to AFK in LFR.

[Serissa]

afking unnoticed

Unnoticed? Nah, no one just gives a f.ck about your afk

""""""""""""""""social experiment""""""""""""""""

Awww did I offended you?

Sorry not sorry.

[Seramore]

Awww did I offended you?

Sorry not sorry.

Yeah super offendeded.

No one is surprised by this, not even OP.
This is well known already.

Today, I decided to try something. I ran through every single LFR on one of my DPS characters. I wanted to see how long I could get carried through afking unnoticed.

I did it by just keeping up with the group and not casting a single damaging spell. I managed to fully clear every single wing without getting noticed and kicked. Yes. Every wing fully cleared in one try while doing a total of 0 damage.

The results show just how laughably apathetic the community has become as well as how easy LFR really is.

No, the results show that you were leeching. And people were geared enough to not care.

Its like someone go to the Bronze Elo in LoL and be surprised they find the worst players possible.

Not shure whats new here.

Although I understand what you're "trying" to get at (as a league player of many moons) that analogy is absolutely shocking haha.

Makes no sense at all.

I do this every week while I watch Netflix. I play this game to challenge myself through high end raiding and M+, if Blizzard is going to make BiS legendary gear effectively mandatory and at the same time completely rng and an absurd time sink, I have no qualms about cheesing the system. Why should I have to spend the little game time I have as an adult completely brain-dead for hours on end just to build up bad-luck-protection in LFR. Across all of my characters, about 30% of my legendaries are from LFR...

PS - The legendary system in this expansion needs to burn in fire along with the developers that decided it was a good idea.

We carry plebs like you all the time, nothing new.

If there is no issues downing bosses

And no one notices it (0 dps not showing on recount)

Why would they care?

[oplawlz]

On the rare occasion I run lfr for some reason I always afk for the last boss.

The analogy is simply going somewhere that has X as common knowledge and be surprised when seeing such knowledge.

Bronze is know for having the Worst players.

Lfr is know for being easy.

Start boss > auto attack > tab in and out while on YouTube > loot.

Proceed to next boss. c:

Except I didn't even autoattack!

It's not a social experiment. You're just a leech.

How do you leech in LFR? The whole thing is a joke anyway.

[Puri]

Except I didn't even autoattack!

Autoattacking would have you much more likely to be kicked. Just to point out how new and exciting this topic is: https://www.mmo-champion.com/threads...-guide-for-LFR

So what you wrote here is basically: Today I decided to be a dick to more than 20 random people and made sure to still get my reward from that.

Honestly I do not get why people are doing that. Yes it is LFR, yes it is easy. But if you participate, stuff dies faster and everyone wins. Easy.

I think you guys are missing the actual social experiment here: It's to see how many people he can "offend" and be "sorry not sorry" with this thread.

Bait thread is bait.

Well just look at all of these butthurt people throwing hissy fits over it. They're obviously deeply offended

[draynay]

Doesn't sound fun.

[Pebrocks The Warlock]

So you made this thread to basically tell everyone you're a huge leech. Mission accomplished I suppose.
