Dude, this isn’t about doing difficult content. If normal difficulty was LFR and not the story mode that it is now, I would be fine with it.
I just don’t want to deal with being told I can’t join because I’m a BM Hunter. I don’t want to deal with being told I can’t join with my current ilevel. I don’t want to deal with being told I can’t join because I don’t have my 4 piece. I don’t want to deal with being told I can’t join because I don’t have the achievement for clearing normal or AOTC.
And no I don’t want to lead a raid either because I’m not a leader. I don’t know the fights and I’m just not set up for it.
They originally said you could get the cat on any difficulty and it’s pretty crappy that they changed their minds on that or waited until now to tell us.
Edit: Another reason this upsets me is I thought the slime cat was going to breathe some life into LFR. Castle and Sanctum queue times are really long. I was looking forward to this active LFR but if nobody has a reason to do it, then it’s going to be back to hour+ queue times.
