Please nerf LFR N'Zoth (again)

Please, for the love of God, or Buddha or WHATEVER you believe in, please please please nerf N’Zoth again. This fight is 90% mechanics and is therefore 100% anti-noob. The dregs of the wow community, people who are bad at their class/don’t care/expect to be carried are the ones who play LFR and geared toons like myself who just want the friggin achievement because they work a full time job and can’t raid normal or higher anymore are getting screwed here.

I have told people well over 30 times which group go to fight psychus - always 3+ don’t listen. If we lose a couple dps, even with 10 stacks (and EVERY group is 10 stacks) then you don’t have enough dps to kill corrupted synapses to debuff psychus and the raid goes insane. Your tanks have to be PERFECT - and most people are just queue as a tank to get in quickly.

I haven’t even been able to fight Carapace because EVERY queue is into a 10 determination N’Zoth that has been wiped on at least 20 times. And every time someone leaves you have to re-explain the entire fight, because no one can be bothered to watch a video.

Please, I’m begging you, nerf the sanity loss in Psychus’ realm and the HP on Psychus and the Corrupted Synapses. Do SOMETHING to help push past the fact that people just can’t do the mechanics. I just want to see the cinematic w/ my toon and get the stupid achievement.

Do not nerf this dang boss, Blizzard!

Let these people learn to play the game for once!

I have no idea why this thing has my stupid Lightforged Draenai I don’t even remember making as the poster… I am a lvl 120 Discipline Priest w/ a 457 item level and a rank 14 cloak. -_-

If they’re being told and they won’t listen, kick them

It is NOT about learning - this fight is removed IMPOSSIBLE with people who aren’t paying 100% attention and actually care about being good at the game. Most people who are in LFR are using it for GEAR which is ridiculous that you get gear better and faster just from doing emissaries. LFR is for TOURISM.

Oh, guess I didn’t get the point across. Let me try this again:

Herioc in 10 people was like super easy. Boss has not a single “hard” mechainic, it’s easy ones are just that punishing.

You kick people who die on phase 1. People leave after every wipe. The people who populate LFR are GARBAGE. I just want my achievement. Me playing perfectly can’t counterbalance half a dozen or more who are just stupid.

After almost 4 xpacs of “make LFR fights relevant”, “use real mechanics”, and other gibberish people post, now the trend is “nerf a real fight so it gets easy for anyone who cant bother to do mechanics”.

At least when I said “I will see the day you guys ask them to make LFR easy”, I said it rhetorically. But now, I have.

Again, the gear in LFR is not relevant - you can get 15 ilvl higher gear from emissaries and heroic gear from heroic darkshore and the 4 mythic monthly event. The point of LFRs has never been to get gear - it is to see the content and get the achievement. It is not supposed to be “real” content.

How do we know it’s you playing perfectly? You got logs to link us?

I explain every detail of the encounter when I come in because no one has a f**king clue how to do the fight because the dungeon journal is useless (not that anyone reads it) and no one can be bothered to watch a youtube video. You doubting me is stupid. I would not be complaining about nerfing this stupid fight because it’s hard and I want free purplez - I’ve already stated that it’s something I want to do ONE TIME to see the end of the expansion and get the stupid achievement because I’m an ADULT and don’t have the free time to raid anymore.

I believe in N’Zoth, good sir, and I say our master must be buffed! Leave no survivors.

It is a mechanic heavy fight, but this is also the first week it came out. Many are still learning the fight. It’ll probably improve as time goes on. Lei Shen was crazy when he first released and got easier when people collectively learned what to do. End bosses tend to be like that.

I like that there’s more of a challenge to this boss. Some of the earlier ones in Ny’alotha almost didn’t have mechanics that needed to be followed.

Nah, without evidence I’m just going to assume that all the wipes were your fault.

Adamanus, why the huge rush to get the Achievement? Do you remember LFR Kil’jaeden and Archie? These occasional end of expansion bosses have often become LFR roadblocks. Archimonde was 10-stack determination for multiple weeks.

Just wait a month and go in fresh on a Tuesday, and take advantage of the eventual nerfs that will happen. Only the real masochists go into these kind of LFR fights in the first week!

Why the hurry?

You don’t understand - no one learns CRAP. People die in the first psychus phase no matter how many times you say “click your body”. Blizzard had to ban people without cloaks because they’re too damn lazy to do the quest line for a free OP legendary. People don’t even UNDERSTAND how to figure out which group they’re in, so when you put 11 of your dps in the groups to fight psychus you’re lucky if 9 go in. People just don’t listen - it’s LITERALLY “don’t tell me how to play the game”. To their f**king RAID LEADER. I was doing progression raid leading Wrath - I understand how to herd cats, but this is bloody IMPOSSIBLE.

It’s only been a few days. N’Zoth takes a bit to get through - I got through it. I like that queue times are generally deceptive faster because people leaving because of N’Zoth wipes.

Still easier than G’huun in my opinion.

(I’m in the same boat, weird schedule means making guild raids are hard for me).

Because frankly I’m burned out. I’m playing to get my cloak to 15 and to get enough mementos to buy the backpack transmog. I only have 4 hours to play per day, except on a day off and that’s assuming I don’t have things that aren’t wow related to do. I am freaking out that Blizz ISN’T going to nerf this fight to compensate for the sheet levels of fail found in LFR and I’m not going to be able to get the achievement at the end of the expansion when literally all I play for anymore is achievements and transmog. I’m basically a retired wow player who tries to have fun and I am being roadblocked by the fact that people suck and LFR is a breeding ground for failure. T_T

Uh…this stupid fight is going to be around for like 5 or 6 months.

One thing I am for is untying story, pvp, crafting and all other activities that are not linked to raiding from raiding.

The fact that players NEED to raid to see for themselves how story ends, or get mats for gear that are inferior to Raid gear is just what makes people who would not raid go to LFR in the first place.

It is like the old days of “having to PvP” to accomplish pve tasks.
