I haven't seen the OG remastered Dragon model flying before, this looks so cool!
Even with all the drakes and dragons additions through the years, the one that I like the most is still the OG design.

Yeah, it seems like Blizzard really wants to release DF Season 1 in December.

I don't like it, but after looking at the overall community reaction, I think I'm on the minority side.![]()
Back to Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms!
I'm patient, I would have no problem with moving raids to January and doing casual content during Christmas. But I know WoW community, expansion would be considered dead on arrival after 5+ weeks without raiding/M+. Hell, it will be considered dead on arrival if we won't have 10.1 info before February.
CR to another class. How about giving CR to the class that originally had it in WC3? Paladins together with shaman should be THE buff classes of the WoW yet as it is now many other classes have far more meaningful buffs than poor pallies.

I honestly don't think anyone who chooses to do it in LFR would actually try to do it on Normal in the first place. It is targeted to a very different crowd.
depends
if they did WoD style loot then probably
if its the same loot just different ilvl youd get some raiders (myself included) going into lfr for certain pieces or trying out ways to cheese mechanics
and pally is likely the CR class
so we end up with 3/6 tanks that can CR which is pretty nice
It's strange for me when LFR and Normal+ players are treated like beings from different universes. Of course there are people that no longer enjoy raiding and want just see story/complete quest in LFR. But ton of people never experienced real raiding and without little push from Blizzard they don't know what they are (potentially) missing. Of course Blizzard could do a lot more, I would love in-game tool similar to old OpenRaid where guildless people could apply to scheduled events and earn reputation.
I'm really casual when it comes to WoW to begin with. But I don't like LFR. Every time I enter I have no idea what's going on, it's just too many people, there's stuff all over the place that isn't really dangerous and because of that I never get to actually learn the fight. I would like to raid on normal in DF but without going to LFR first.
My experience with normal raiding guilds is that they are friends and family groups who are mostly there for socialization. Bosses will die when they die, they just want to goof around and tell jokes in discord while trying to kill imaginary dragons. Those people probably would indeed run LFR once to see the raid if it was available earlier, but they would still go to their normal raids because for them raiding is far more about being social than gaming.
And yeah would love Open Raid back. There are several discord communities that do the same thing but OpenRaid had better tools. It's really people who would like to schedule a PuG so to speak; they don't mind raiding/doing dungeons with strangers, they just want to be able to plan that ahead at their leisure. That said, Gen Z prefers apps to in-browser utilities which complicates things.
However the reputation part of Open Raid could never be done if this was made available by Blizzard imo. They would only allow perfomance-based and entirely data driven ratings.

Not recruiting or anything but have you tried a discord community?
