Crucible LFR - One of the Worst PVE Experiences I've Had

[Irisse-maelstrom]

You don’t have to move the bosses in LFR. They ignore any of the relics that have already activated.

Yes, I learned that more recently. They should make you move the bosses.

The solution is to not run LFR considering it was made for players who weren’t capable enough to do normal content.

Or, you know, for the players like me who can’t schedule their life around raid times?

I used to run heroic raids. But, as I aged I found I had more responsibilities and less free time from which to carve out set times to play a video game.

LFR also does cater to that. Just saying.

At least during MoP LFR was satisfying. Nice balance of gear, difficulty and length.

This is true. They should push the item level curve a bit so that latest LFR is at least stronger than emissaries. It may be an easy mode (for good players), but it still requires time and can fail, unlike emissaries.

A 5 ilvl bump would be enough. But other than that, LFR Crucible shouldn’t be changed or nerfed. It’s good the way it is.

lol. I’ll have to read what OP said, but I gave it a shot last night, after 3 tries i myself left and so did like half the raid

I just did this for my first time (to finish the quest) got in and there was 5 stacks of determination. Didn’t die on the first boss. Got to the second boss and people literally just kept pulling the boss till we had 3 stacks. Noone tried I didn’t even get what was going on at that point. After the third wipe one of the tanks started explaining the fight and said the stacks make it easier so he just does it. I was like uhhhhh. I just wanted my quest done. But we beat it that time without a problem. So I guess some people are already in the mentality that without Det stacks lfr is impossible. I can say for certain I won’t be going back now that my quest is done.

Just rename it to LOLFR

I like to queue up , grab the crown then scream its fkn TreWay before activating the crown during lasers.

[Sayura-earthen-ring]

I just want to see what’s in there.

Usually a disappointing experience but hey, not every raid can be Naxx 10. In fact no raid since Naxx 10 has been Naxx 10.

From my experience with LFR the problem isn’t that the people there don’t have the ability to do the fights, they simply don’t have the knowledge or experience to know what needs to get done and how to do it. If you talk to people nicely in LFR and explain simply then you can usually get people through without any real problems.

But when you are overly patronizing or btchy or an ahole then people usually get defensive and either stop listenting or intentionally start sabotaging to get back at you.

I queued after picking up the quest to do so.

Got into an in progress run, on the first boss, with 6 stacks of Determination. Killed the boss.

Moved to the next boss. Wiped. Farmed up 3 more stacks of Determination. Wiped. Started up again and someone used the 1 shot kill button. Now at 7 stacks of determination we succeed in killing the boss.

Was actually quite amusing. It’s a mind set thing though. Going in, in no rush, simply to kill 2 bosses for a single quest and done takes a lot of pressure off yourself.
