It is generally understood that normal mode dungeons are there for people to experience content. In raiding, LFR mode provides the same.

So why is it, then, that heroic 5-man dungeons and normal and heroic raids have not gotten brutally difficult? With the introduction of LFR, I expected normal and heroic raids to be MUCH more difficult than T11 and T12. Normal raids should be nearly as difficult as heroic raids were, and heroic should be at LEAST as difficult as Sunwell. It boggles my mind that so many guilds steamrolled normal mode Dragon Soul in the first week.

LFR is for seeing content. Normal raiding is for a coordinated guild group. Heroic raiding is for people like me that enjoy wiping hundreds of times before downing a boss.

What I'm really interested in is Blizzard providing a reason for why normal and heroic T13 content is so easy when LFR was created for the express purpose of allowing people with little time to experience content.
