Sure.  But if youre farming runestones/titans for the legendary quest 
chain or you just want better gear it really doesnt matter which wing 
and raid youre queueing for.  There is almost an item for every slot in 
every wing in SoO.

LFR is your bread and butter depending on your goal in the game.  It 
cant be fun all the time.  Especially the legendary quest is just 
ridiculously hard work every week in 2-4 months depending on luck and 
available time.  Just like the endless grinding and farming if you 
wanted to open the gates of ahn'qiraj in Tanaris in vanilla.

Im lost.  Are you talking about SoO/lfr or the planned raid changes in WoD?

If Blizzard makes this game even easier or the game gets even more 
simplified I will consider my subsription seriously.  Its not about 
being an elitist whiner.  Its about watching real in-game challenges 
disappering in the fog of simpleness.
In MoP we have the legendary questline.  Warlocks has the green fire 
questchain.  Both ends with a useful or vanity reward.  MORE OF THAT, 
PLEASE!!!
