[@Frawt]

lmao even layer 4 is a joke. I didn't die a single time before layer 7, though I did do Gauntlet on a monk, which are pretty OP in Torghast, but I still never came even close to dying. I love Asmon and his content in general, but the incessant repetition of "lmao this is so easy this is so easy" on the first layers gets so annoying. I find somebody getting frustrated entertaining, but the gloating at the start is just obnoxious.

You can actually farm the whole set in a couple of days.. Just make a trial character, get the BFA Quest, go to Boralus, do only the introduction quest until you unlock the portals, get the heart of azeroth, activate the world quests on the ship and you are free to queue for Warfronts as long as you player the war campaign with one of your characters.. takes like 5 - 7 min until you are ready and you can do it like 40 times a day if you want to 😂 Had the set in like 2 days.. ✌️

[@xXbaker1025Xx]

That LFR take is pretty fair. I only play solo and I literally only do LFR to see the story and see no reason it should provide any rewards except standard queuing rewards like gold/power

[@ZelixPL]

yeah fuck that this game already barely rewards you for doing stuff, this would only lead to longer queue times

[@user-uq4gr5nl5o]

I would generally agree, but the gear you get in LFR is trash. So I really don't get why he's complaining about that.

[@Prevordan]

@@ZelixPL Did you even see the video? The idea was to have bots fill in slots since it's only for the story, the queue times would be fine

you can just feel the desperation in McConnell there. he really wants his boy back to play wow with. problem is he went on to play other games and seen so many examples of games 'doing what wow does but better' in one way or another. (especially with the last two expansion to go by example) oh he'll still play from time to time but its no longer his main game unless blizzard gets its act together. Sad to see WoW in this state.

What if they made LFR the games defacto jump puzzle system. Rewards for completion as a raid group, encouraging group cooperation OR if you want to lone wolf the whole story event and get to the end early, theres a bonus for that too. Rewards would rarely drop gear with decent raid level stats, but mostly low hanging fruit like food, crafting mats, pets and seasonal items.

Hard agree with the sentiment of LFR not providing "gear" to some extent, I think it should offer gear that's not actually viable there and then, It should be a "stepping stone" into Raiding/Harder end game content where in which the players LEARN mechanics progressively and interactively, Current LFR is go in and whack the fuck out shit without paying attention, Kinda sadge.

[@Aftershock416]

"It should be a "stepping stone" into Raiding/Harder end game content" - The issue is that people in LFR are so shit and the bosses are just sponges that deal no damage, it's legitimately more frustrating than normal raiding.

Retail will always be worth it as a new player. There's an obscene amount of content and so many different things to do that you're bound to find something you enjoy. Just do yourself a favor; find a good guild to run content with, don't pug, don't force yourself to do anything you don't want to, and just do the content that's fun to you. Advice even veterans should take.

They accept this not only as a norm but as a content. They want every other MMO to be exactly like WoW which it will never be. Ashes of Creation might what you are hoping for but that remains to be seen... in a decade or so perhaps. There are other alternatives if you want a similar fantasy theme as Warcraft, ESO being the closest.
