    How often do you do LFR, since the release of Flex?

    Havn't seen such a thread lately but here it goes:

    Since the release of Flex Raiding, how often are you doing LFR?


    Talking about end-game content only.


    Update:
    So far about 50% of the playerbase never do LFR, and the tendensy for this cause that LFR has a poor design.(Gently said).

    And about 4% of the entire playerbase does it weekly.

    Several completions of Wing 1 (one on my main, to test out some new talents, and a handful on alts for gear). One 2/4 completion (Galakras/Iron Juggernaut) of Wing 2 on one character (alt for gear). Nothing else.

    Typically I've just been sticking to Wing 1; though this is nothing new, for non-premade groups I've typically only stuck to the first Wing of each LFR, it seems it's got the lowest probability of failing. Usually queuing for more I'd take a premade, but now we just do Flex instead.

    Every SoO wing with 2 characters, every week.
    Don't care about Flex at all.

    I got my lfr Garrosh kill on Thursday. Then tried to do wing 1. 3 hours later we were still wiping on 2nd boss. I just couldn't be arsed to try again on wings 1-3. So went and leveled an alt. I have flex tomorrow night and I'm near valor capped so I feel pretty meh about heading back into lfr.

    I'm a heals and had a 40min wait for 1st wing just to get tanks with sub 500k hp, about 6 of them until I left.

    I run one boss a week, Immerseus on my druid for the trinket and then leave. Thats it. I do need trinkets from other bosses. They are slight upgrades. But not worth fighting through LFR for them. Since Immerseus is first etc, I do it.

    Flex for sure. I have hated LFR since day 1 with the que system and no social interaction. MMO killer is all that LFR is.

    one maybe two wings a month, the queues are just too horrible to bother more when you can jump in a flex w/ the OQueue addon in a few minutes.

    Every wing, every week, on multiple characters.

    I quit doing LFR since the latest patch. But not because of Flex. Never done it and I don't plan to. I'm just fed up with raids. I want real 5 mans back.

    I did the first wing of LFR once since Flex came out and that's been my entire experience with SoO LFR. I'm going to go back and do the rest at some point to get the green bar on my armory.

    The poll is a bit biased as you don't have any before/after, except for the last possibility.

    How can anecdotal evidence be biased?

    I mean, the title is "Since the release of Flex, how often do you do LFR?"
    And, yes, answering to the poll will give you that information. But it won't tell if people run more LFR than before, less LFR than before, etc.
    I'm not sure the "since the release of Flex" part of the sentence is relevant.

    Agreed.

    I started off doing more LFR.

    Did Nazgrim 4 times trying to get a weapon upgrade. Probably woulda been more but I gave up a few times to wiping or time constraints.

    That is tapering off as I need less and less from LFR (ilvl 528).

    I've been upgrading timeless isle gear to ilvl 535 with Burden of Eternity, and I've been getting drops in Flex and Normal raids bringing me to ilvl 543 equipped.

    I might still go back to LFR for tier pieces if I am in the mood or have extra free time, but I'm not in a competitive heroic raiding guild so I think it's fine to just gear up through flex/normal at this point since I am not holding back progression as a tank.

    On the other hand, I don't have my legendary cloak yet, so as soon as I finish the PVP part I might be doing LFR for titan runetones etc.

    tldr: I might still do LFR sometimes.
