okay I get that you don’t use beta or alpha testers on anything but the skitra fight in LFR??? communication doesn’t and wont happen in LFR and making fights that are dependent on it … not good.
Cmon, fix this so LFR raiders can have a chance
You do have a chance.
Communicate. If ya don’t? Too bad.

I don’t like to be seen agreeing with Gnomes but… have to agree with Jessicka on this one.

Marks on ground are super hard way to communicate with your team. I know.

yea great reply … all very well for guildmates but 25 randoms? the chances of that are slim, and have proven so on my kills so far. Its a first wing boss, it shouldn’t be this level of pug killer already
its only a pug killer if a pug dont communicate… press enter then use your finger sausages and type some words its not that hard
did it on 4 chars now and all went just fine, youre either unlucky or alliance has some crazy bad lfr teams

6 alts, 4 disbanded after fails, 2 kills with one tank being 850k hp and 470 gear.
Its too much. Some say the real ones colour is different (not that I can see), others do floor marks and some just go to each spot. LFR groups just wont work with this level of comm required. “first time here” is rampant and only going to get worse. An automatic mark on each mob … thatd sort it … tanks still need to say which they can see, a requisite amount of communication, surely?
Can’t have LFR require skill or mechanics now, can we,
I just said its too much … whats wrong with automatically marking the mobs when they come up
This is what you need to do.
-
Place marker
-
Ask other tank to communicate if they both see a mob at that marker.
-
Easy gear.
It’s not hard.

and if either tank doesn’t speak English or doesn’t want to communicate or has addons that block chat or sorry im watching Netflix or any of the other plethora of reasons that tanks wont communicate? your entire raid is f$$$$ed.
happened 4 times out of 6 now, and its only been out for a day. Its going to get much worse
What part of some tanks just will not communicate in LFR do you not get … its not hard.
Surely automatic marking would make this easier for everyone in LFR. tanks still need to communicate … but if they don’t … at least the healers/dps with the different debuffs have a chance to work It out eventually
Then too bad, LFR shouldn’t be a “Turn off your brain” to get gear. The boss is not hard, not at all.
No, that would literally make the mechanic do itself… Lol.
right well youre not contributing to this so I shall bid you a not so fond farewell.
automatic marking, that’s all im asking for blizz. cmon, its not too hard to implement and itll make this less of a mess
Too bad it won’t happen, god forbid LFR raiders to actually do mechanics for once.

I have an idea! I have!
Go to normal! More chance you gonna get tanks, who understand how to type few words in chat.

They could also just send you the loot in the mail if you want to remove the one mechanic that makes the prophet minimally challenging.
I just did these three bosses in LFR for the extra pet chance and it’s already tuned down so much that you can ignore nearly all mechanics. At Maut you don’t even have to go into the circles so that you don’t die.

The difference between normal Maut, and LFR maut is about 450k dmg on Stygian lol.
Starcaller Augur wiped the floor with LFR because LFR heroes focused boss and not the ad… At some point enough heroes lerned that they have to do that one simple mechanic.

It could be that but in my lfr experience it’s 50/50 you get some people who can communicate and help out and you get some groups who can’t understand English and are kind of antisocial in a sense they rather just go go go then communicate with people.
