Since Good Suramaritan required LFR of Emerald Nightmare, why is anybody surprised Insurrection requires Nighthold? I don't like to dismiss complaints about the game as mere whining, but in this case, well, isn't it? Is it really that big a deal that you have to do a wing of LFR? Even if you have to wait a little while for it to open? I only do LFR, and I am not the least bothered by the wait: this game has so much else to do in the meantime.
I'd be more inclined to go after the archaeology necklace if it was BoA instead of BoP. Especially considering that my main, who is really the only one I do any archaeology stuff on, already has the 915 legendary. That's an awful lot of digging for an item that could get replaced the same day by a random titan-forged or legendary drop.
