It’s historically been more than a mount. In Legion it was casual players filling the forums with complaints about not getting legendaries after running world quests for a week. It’s always something.
Legendaries in Legion dropped in LFR. You were talking about LFRaiders earlier, those people are a seperate group of people.
I’d argue that everyone that Raids under Mythic is casual.
I mean, one could say the same about the mythic dungeons mount. Some people aren’t raiders, but they do other high-end content.
Having a base reward or mount I feel is fine (Like a participation trophy) – but I do believe giving an extra or unique reward for greater difficulties & accomplishments is healthy for the game, and inspires more people to do them than just for gear or the base rewards.

Blizzard should just remove any rewards below Mythic difficulty. The other tiers are just stepping stones to the real raid game.
Players seem to agree, which is why the RWF exists at all.
with the amount of noise people are doing, they will have to change their decision again to include LFR.
they did it for the keystone mount recolor
LFR is it’s own worst enemy. It traded community for convenience and really escalated issues.
Blizz should have just aggressively merged servers to keep populations high and kept LFD/LFR to those single groups. It would be slower than now, but you’d get to know people still and needing to do a premade now and then wouldn’t be such a nightmare for those folks.
I’ll do you one better…
I actually think all rewards should cap and be available to everyone. Higher difficulties should reward mogs, Pets, Mounts and titles and be exclusive. That would make those Achievements be about skill alone.
It didn’t escalate any issues. Those issues were there to begin with. They just added it so more people raid, to give raid a reason to still be in the game.
Still would not get people to raid who don’t want to, could help people find guilds. But that sort of thing seems to have overall become more unpopular with lifestyle changes now, and more games to compete with WoW. Now people do Mythic+ for their progression, because it takes less time.
I know some groups of casuals that raid Mythic. They’re everywhere. Oh no.
But the same players complaining about the Slimy Kitty don’t want to do M+ either and are on the forums every day trying to remove timers, etc.
If they don’t want to then they shouldn’t. All this uproar because people who are already doing something they don’t want to do have to do it a different way to get a not that attractive mount?
It’s totally ok not to have every item in the game, especially if you have to spend your leisure time doing something you don’t even like to get it.

I don’t know the numbers on that. But most of the problem with Kitty and why it exists and not posts about like the AotC mount is because they changed the terms of the mount drop.

It’s the change of terms after everyone had asked for the slime kitty mount after a poll that everyone got to vote on. It’s the specifics of what happened. People aren’t posting the same about the AotC mount that I talked about above.
When did society get into this idea that not being rewarded for something means you’re being punished?
Then why is it an issue? Why would someone be incapable of participating in a normal raid, but not an LFR raid?
you are thrown bones frequently. you just aren’t happy that not every bone is available to you.

My dude… A the new stuff got new mounts. The only people not getting new stuff were the casuals this season. It’s such a joke of a season as is. That mount should 100% be available through lfr.
I’m 100% for the m+, pvp and raiding exclusive mounts. This stupid cat mount should have been lfr.

Well, it’s not time so it must be lack of skill. LFR queuing has been broken since 9.2 and you get dropped into partial wings over and over. It takes hours to get through the queue to have fresh wings to clear all the bosses. Finding a group for Normal is much more time-efficient.
You call three regurgitated raids new stuff?
“Normal raids are for elitist no-life players”
