Why does LFR drop gear?

Raids r not hard anymore … give it a rest.

Peeps clear em now in less than a week on launch… raiding is a joke nowadays.

Lfr was one of blizz best ads in the game to keep it going…

Thank the majority of players that keep the game going.

Now go ask your mom to make some hot pockets for you.

If you dont run LFR, why would you care what goes on in there? I’ve never understood this obsession of what ways other players are gearing themselves. In the more than 10 years I’ve been playing this game I can tell you, that never, not once has another persons raiding habits affected my game experience.

On a side note, Blizz bring back Honor Vendors. When you took away my ability to farm honor and then go to an NPC and buy the piece of gear I wanted, You took out my favorite part of the game.

I never did that not even in vanilla because its just a game well said!

my mom said when i grow up i’ll be cool like you

A better question is why do you care?

How does someone getting the worst raid gear in the entire game negatively impact you?

How does it ruin your gaming experience knowing somewhere out there someone is getting low item level gear?

People get triggered when others get gear so it seems.

Big time triggered dam if Looking for raid is doing that to them i can’t imagine how bad it is with stuff like quest events ,titanforges,incursions and warfront one time quest giveing 370 to 385 ilvl gear to players i bet there foaming out of the mouth then.

Because getting gear is fun and wearing even a lesser version of the tier sets and weapons makes people feel like a part of the expansion.

Same reason any mode drops loot.

Do you use LFR? If not then how does it affect you, oh yeah it doesnt.

Move on just another anti lfr post that isnt even trying to be subtle

I dunno, why do mythic raids drop gear? It’s not like there’s anything tougher than that that you need the gear for.

Same reason pacifiers exist

Nothing will ever kill this LFR hating mindset. It’s the absolute cockroach of WoW.

Sounds like some higher end raiders are annoyed that the gear they get isn’t 100 ilvs higher than the person who did easier content.

I guess I can understand that, but it seems like the direction of the game is changing. You still can get the “best” gear from raiding the highest difficulties, but you can still get pretty good gear from everything else.

Think classic will when the lions share of players who hung on just go back to when wow was a rpg.

Personally, I don’t particularly get the hate. It does not bother me one bit and usually I’ll do LFR weekly as well, just for kicks and possible TF loot.
I just refused to touch LFR G’huun… (shivers in fear).
LFR is not going away any time, so peeps really should just get used to it.

With this logic why does any raid or dungeon drop gear, you see the story and you don’t need any thing above questing greens to do world quests?

I’m definitely not an elitist. LFR was invented because most of the population did not get to experience raiding content. I’m asking why does gear need to drop if the goal is to get people to just experience the content?
