Beginning to Hate VP

I'm really not looking forward to VP and heroics again. I really don't want to play that part of endgame every single tier. I really, really, really, desire sufficient VP to be source from raids or all gear to be available in raids (i.e. no tier pieces for VP).

I'm against VP grind for gear after the entry tier of raiding, we should not be rewarded with current tier raiding gear for grinding 5 man content. It disassociates progression and challenge from the gear reward.

This request is going to fall on deaf ears. I can promise one thing at least from this. I will not use the LFD tool without an entire group of 5 players from my guild or other raiding guilds on my server.

Didn't Fireland VP get buffed recently so that 25m raids give 980 (the cap) for a full clear, while 10m give around 850 or so? MMO-champion is still down so I can not search for the post there.

How about searching for the post on our site which they were quoting? In this case it's in the patch notes. :p
