Please fix the issues with queuing into loot-locked bosses in LFR. (In before why play LFR? It’s a fresh 60.)
- Players should always be queued into a fresh LFR wing if they’re loot locked to later bosses.
- Leaving if a player is incorrectly queued into a wing where there are only loot locked bosses available should not result in a deserter penalty.
I killed Lords of Dread and Rygelon after getting placed in a group that had already killed Anduin. I requeued and the next group I was placed in was after Anduin again. Dropping the raid, since I’m loot locked to the next two bosses, still gave me a 30 minute debuff. Hitting Alt-F4 or begging for a kick is not a good solution.
I also got placed into a raid that only had Halondrus left. The next queue for Ephemeral Plains after a 10-minute wait dropped me into Skolex, still skipping Guardian and Xy’mox. >.<
At this point I’ve done all 4 wings, 2 twice, waited through six queues, and I still have 3 bosses up, two of which drop useful items. This is not reasonable, especially missing Anduin twice.

I agree. Its annoying queing, getting in and seeing the first boss or so killed. So you say, sure ill finish this one. You do that one and reque, get in and see the first boss or so killed again already. So its either leave and get the 30m debuff or do the raid and get nothing out of it.

This would be much more tolerable if they brought back bonus roll tokens of some sort. I know the vault is the replacement but there should be a middle ground somewhere.

Then LFR raids would never get done because there would be no backfill.

First runs were always whatever needed filled. And if you got put into an in-progress run and finished the wing, your next queue was guaranteed to be a fresh run.
Now, that’s not the case anymore. Unsure if it’s by design or bugged.

That’s what I thought I remembered. If it’s by design they need to offer a way to drop or a reward for sticking around.
3 queues with Anduin down now. This is BS.

LFR raids got done before and they’re sure not going to get backfill if healers and tanks stop queuing.
I did 1 LFR, got the last boss of the wing, took 3 tries to kill it. Queued again for the same wing, waited 20 minutes, got the last boss of the wing again with no chance at loot. This makes me not want to do LFR at all. I have no guarantee that if I queue six times that I’m going to get anything but the last boss. This needs to be changed back.

The system where if you join a partial, complete, and got a fresh queue the next time worked so well
Why is it broken? Or why was it removed?
It was how I would easily make sure I finished all of LFR.
I don’t bother to try now because waiting 30+ mins to never get a certain fight like Anduin and queue waiting over and over is NOT for me.

I agree as well, I will leave every time I queue into a 2 Boss downed lfr, it is just ignorant and lazy on Blizz’s part, spent a whole day leaving partial lfr queue’s, back to back queueing, and now I’m not going to get a chance at great vault loot bc of this stupidness. Punishing players for wanting fresh runs is dumb c’mon Blizz use your brains here. People pay you ALOT of money for this. Making players run it 4,5 even 6 times to finish 1 raid LFR is a waste of time just like the 30 min. debuff you get.
they really need to put in a toggle, like a box you check for “fresh runs” & “in-progress runs”, and increase the rewards for doing in progress runs
