Twin Consorts and Meg are both easier than Durumu in RF.
Also, overly simplifying one boss and overly complicating others doesn't prove your point well.
Jin'rohk all you really need to do is handle the puddles in RF, lightning balls won't do much.
And you missing killing the adds on Durumu, moving out of Force of Will, and dealing with life drain, if you're going to over complicate fights.

I've thought a lot about why it seems the overwhelming majority of players
overwhelming majority of players
majority of players
majority

I guess one could interpret my post and come to assumption ive met every single player who raids LFR exclusively and assessed their skill level but those sort of people are stupid.
My point was to shed light to people who arnt bad at the game and have trouble grasping why a lot of players in LFR seem to struggle with simple mechanics and do way below sub-par dps.

well its all down to a matter of opinion on what people think is the easiest fight in raid finder. i think its durumu as all i have to do is attack the boss and run in a circle when needed, barely have to use any defensive/healing cd's whereas i do have to on other fights such as meg during rampage phase. twin consorts would be a close second to durumu though.
^ that is what you said, and from that it seems like you are assuming every person who raids LFR is a bad player, which is wrong. i do not raid anything other than LFR and i can assure you i do not fit the profile of the "LFR raider" you have described in your postFirst of all people who raid LFR exclusively really don't care about their performance in the slightest, these are the sort of people who use the default Blizzard UI with 1 still bound to auto attack.

Have you ever healed Twin Consorts on RF? It's a total snoozefest...normal isn't that much better either, except at least some of it hurts. It's one of the reasons I don't do the last part of RF anymore. The other part being obviously Lei Shen.
But I'll pull out of this, as it is just an opinion like you said.
Also what's wrong with the default UI? It works well at what it's meant to do, and I use, even after trying elvUI, which annoyed me while trying to tank on my paladin. I don't think having a custom UI would improve my playing in any way, shape, or form, except maybe I wouldn't have to add totems to my bar for situational needs.
Also pretty sure floating combat text is enabled by default.

But not if you haven't experienced it before. Watching videos is great, but the videos make almost everything look easy.
@OP: Yes, that's usually how it goes. You get heroic raiders saying how easy normal is, because they've been in guilds that find normal easy so they've never been in the kind of guild that finds normal hard as shit, however moreso than other situations you get people that think because THEY have never seen it, it can't possibly exist for anyone.
I guess if you want to take it word for word then yes what i said was that every single player who raids LFR is bad but by using the power of common sense I would assume that person isn't talking about everyone but rather an overwhelming majority which I still stand by in saying are bad.
It's no big secret that most people who play WoW arnt very good at it in terms of them being a valuable member of even a normal mode raiding guild which basically boils down to the points i listed in the first place and its not a bad thing by any means, if someone doesnt want to put in the effort to learn their rotation. Learn to use Addons and learn to use keybinds that has no effect on me at all until they decide to step inside the same LFR as me.
At this point it does become my concern because these people are almost essentially dead weight. Someone pulling 30k dps in ToT LFR gear and dying to easily avoidable mechanics is of absolutely no use to anyone and hinders the raid more than helps.
So you think Jin'Rok was harder? Really? The "stand in the big blue spot and DPS with your eyes closed then run to his crotch and repeat" boss?
I've died to that beam during one of my first few ToT LFRs as a healer because I had to keep stopping to save people and then it apparently moved more than 100% movement speed and caught up to me.
When the laser beam appears you should be standing directly under it (it doesn't do any damage until it starts moving which doesn't happen for about 10 seconds). About 5 seconds after the laser beam appears there will be sort of purple squiggles (not to be confused with the purple eye sores that define the maze) on 1 side of the laser beam and that is where you should be standing. The area with the squiggles will be the clear area and you can then just watch as the maze opens up ahead of you.

Times to look out for in the video above:
2:26 the beam appears. (you should directly stand under it while waiting to see which side the squiggles are on)
2:31 the purple squiggles appear to the left side of the beam (you should move to this side of the beam)
2:41 the beam starts moving round and the maze begins opening up for players to move into.
Basically people have 10 seconds from the squiggles appearing to get themselves into position before the beam even does anything. I even spam this macro as soon as the squiggles appear: /say THIS SIDE OF THE BEAM NOW and yet there's still about 10 people dying to the beam on a lot of tries.
I think most people don't realise that you can and should stand under the beam when it appears... and I think another problem is that people either don't notice the squiggles on the floor which are telling them where they should start the maze or they think they are actually part of the maze and so are scared to stand in them.

Oh get over yourself. LFR is raiding.
Or people who like playing the game on a less regulated schedule and are content to put in effort to do LFR and consider themselves content. LFR isn't some dumping ground, stop acting like you're superior.
