They should do the opposite of what they're doing right now. Remove ALL Affixes except the seasonal kiss/curse one.
So basically, in removing annoying affixes...they've added new ones that are not only extremely annoying, but ALSO will heavily restrict comps which will lead to certain classes getting picked even less by the meta obsessed 20~ key runners.Just lower the max vault level back down to 15, ain't no raider want to deal with whatever hell this is.
So afflicted will be a healer affix and explosives are, too. Cool
Right lets just take a moment to think rationally, for example we are in a 15 vortex pinnacle, last boss, the lightning spawns and 2 seconds later the boss casts his big aoe oneshot which on heroic is already a oneshot... Ok we can avoid this mechanic by knowing there is a safe spot and running to it, now we have entangling, ok right we cant run to this safe spot now because we are rooted... Okay we can use different things to maybe break 3 players out.. you cast and get out... Oh wait its too late its a wipe .. THIS IS LITERALLY WHY THEY ARE HAVING TO REWORK THE AFFIXES. why dont you stupid ^&*!s at blizzard even know the mechanics you're outting these affixes ontop of? You absolute %^&*ing *!@#$s. If you cant design affixes which dont directly lead to groups wiping at any keh level then dont add them to the !@#$ing dungeons. Hows about they start actually play testing their own game instead of having a 5 min brainstorm then just pushing that ^&*! to the ptr and ignoring every single bit of feedback they get given.... Justs christ how &*!@ing dumb can you actually be.
this has to be an april fools joke
Congratulations, Afflicted is became a new healer problem. Specing for decurse from the Feral side is cancer- either have to give up defensives or healing traits (Vigil) for it. Not gonna happen.
Good info and feedback, that's exactly why we have ptr. If anyone thinks any of these affixes will go live in this state they are delusional, this is just first look. I definitely don't think affixes need to be removed entirely but they need to hear the feedback and improve upon these affixes.
I have a theory that blizzard is trying to kill WoW. It is already at the lowest playerbase in the history of the game. And they change m+ to be even more annoying. Not harder more annoying. What psychopath is lead designer on mythic+?
The explosive change looks like Legion explosives were only in legion it spawned 3 now it spawns 2 for the same pack, but instead has 2-3x as much health by first glance. Pity we are not getting back legion levels of player power too if we are at reverting affix nerfs and increasing plain % modifiers for practically no reason...And whats even more disappointing is the fact that they would rather spend about 2-3x as much time making these dumpster fire level affixes than just incorporating what was already working very well for long years (until DF) into the weekly affixes. Encrypted, Tormented, Reaping and Shrouded would just need minor changes and could go live after about 3 ptr builds, but then ofc we would miss the annual mandatory difficulty ramp up, ion's birthday gift in other words...At some point blizzard will have to decide if they want to create a game that is fun to play for the majority of the community or if they want to continue to cannibalize themselves in effort to purse ion's dream of wow being a meaningful esport game with little to no players.
okay, I usually don't laugh for additions or changes to the game, even when they are kinda ridicules.But this is just laughable. They completely missed the entire point of our complaints. This is NOT what we want. We want LESS annoyance in affixes, not more. Not replace the annoyances we already had.And sure, maybe a replacement would work, but these don't look challenging in a fun way at any capacity what so ever.
Hi Devs!We've changed our minds. The old affixes were completely OK. We don't need new ones.Thanks,The Players
I dont understand why Blizzard is hell bent on making M+ as miserable as possible. After all those interviews pretending to give a ^&*!, and they come up with deleting the ONLY buff affix (Thundering) and giving us chain spawning explosive orbs, random slows, and some dumb decurse affix. Where the %^&* is the fun suppose to come in? Its just gone downhill every season since Prideful, I wish I knew how good we had it then.
Explosions need like a 30sec gcd with this hp.
This stuff makes thundering look as appealing as volcanic
Looks like I am skipping M+ this season. These all look stupid. Who needs more random targets to fill up the screen? Not me.
Just remove ALL affixes and lets use the dungeon scaling system, its enuff!
30% explosive hp nerf yea thats gonna solve the problem LOL blizz brain is amazing
