Every player can get the mount. Just queue up for an LFG group as if you’re queuing for LFR.
All I can hope for is enough people complain about it. If enough people do they might change it. Remember the hawk mount that was a rare drop during a TWO WEEK annivesary? They made that a guranteed drop when enough people complained.
Seriously, this should have been an easy win for Blizzard but at the last minute they had to back out for whatever reason! That cat mount being in LFR was one of the main reason I even sub for this season.

No, you’re not.
LFG groups are not LFR, not by a long shot.
I guarantee you if Blizzard had pulled this crap with normal and heroic and said ‘you gotta do it on mythic to get the mount now’ you’d all be pitching a fit over Blizzard pulling the rug when the achievement specifically said ‘all difficulties’ for months.
This isn’t right and no one should be supporting this. It’s disrespecting players time, which is something Ion specifically said they wanted to change moving forward.

THere is a difference .
LfR randomly puts you into a group but you always get into one.
LfG you have the possibility of not getting invited.
LfR is a guaranteed spot
LfG is a possibility of getting a spot .
Big difference between a definite yes and a maybe

Yeah not happy with this. This was originally a mount that was meant for everybody, for free. and it was the runner up in popularity. Up until now everyone thought they could get it in LFR- but now people who dont like to raid/cant raid are looking at a short season window with little warning.
I dont raid anymore and with three full raids required to do this, being able to break it up into smaller chunks in LFR so i dont have to try and find a raiding schedule that fits my real world obligations is a pain. I dont want to buy three frikkin carries but i might end up doing just that. ugh. please change it.

Also LFR has reduced difficulty when it comes to encounter mechanics, which for some players is all they can handle due to physical disabilities making more challenging encounters inaccessible for them.

They’re making a mistake by restricting it from LFR. This could have actually revitalized it in participation.

And this was something I was really looking forward to. I get into queue now, see it’s an hour, and nope right back out of queue.

i agree but if they done this
i do not know why they did not put this as heroic and mythic only
But how are the mythic raiding guilds that carry the developers’ characters supposed to make a bunch of gold off of charging for carries?

Yeah, I heard that CN LFR queues are endless and I was hoping to get the plate recolor…but I’m not going to spend an hour+ waiting to get into them each.

THat’s why I had to stop doing Heroics after Anduin .
The arthritis and slower reflexes was making it harder to do .
Damn heroic raiding was so much easier at 47/48 then it is now at 55

A few months ago I was trying to get the Sylvanas quest done and after waiting over an hour for that to pop I just gave up.

I genuinely do think a lot of it comes from the exlusivity mentality. I personally am okay with some things being exlusive (e.g. achievement mounts, PvP mounts, rare drops, the OG mage tower artifact weapon appearances, etc.) but there are some people who go crazy with it. I’ve seen some argue that very basic item appearances from low level quests pre-Cata should never be allowed to come back (y’know, item appearances that only ceased to exist because Blizz forgot to re-add them into quests when they did the revamp and gutted some earlier ones).
What you’re noticing here is that a lot of people don’t really ask for easily-available things to be made exclusive, but are more than willing to die on a hill to prevent exclusive items from being made more available. If those pre-cata shirt appearances all made it into the Cata revamped quests, no old-school players would be arguing for them to be taken out of the game. It’s only because they were initially not added in during the revamp that made some see them as “prestige items” that needed to be kept away from new players at all costs.

Yeah I think they’re sleeping on how much folks just want to unplug after SLs. Folks that wanna do it in higher difficulties are going to do just that.

I always sort of assumed LFR wouldn’t count, it never does for these things, so I was always pretty skeptical. Honestly I’m kind of happy I dont have to do LFR now, but maybe we’ll get a group together, don’t really care either way tbh.
I don’t see the word “any”
Click on each raid in that achievement and each one says “Any”
