Great ! Another " How can we skip this B.S seasonal garbo affix " meta incoming . You know the mobs will be way over tuned in higher keys . Bleh !
Seems a little simple tbh, hopefully we get some other minibosses or something?The theme is cool but usually they use the affix also to reinforce the main story. So what's the story here- a reminder the Dreadlords are still out there?

Meh, looks quite boring especially compared to s3 affix which gave you a lot of room for creativity with routes and freedom in choosing which buff will be the best at which time. Hopefully s4 doesn't last too long.
Anyone know how long we have to get AOTC?
So we get ~20% damage increase at the end of the dungeon, averaging out to 10% over the whole run. Not bad, but also nothing to be excited about.
This sounds like a great, end of expansion affix.Not something you have to bang your head against, or plan a route for. But just run the dungeon, get the stacks and enjoy the extra power it gives.We're at the end of the expansion, we should be able to relax and have fun in these dungeons as we rest up and prepare for Dragonflight.
Why everyone keeps saying this is good only at the end of the dungeon on last boss?Yes, the "max" stacks will be available on last boss but there's nothing stopping you to make a route where you kill most of these mobs to get higher stacks of buff (specially on tyrannical weeks) and then go for bosses. Depends on what dungeon you are running and most efficient route to cover trash count and time it takes to run around vs how bigger buff you have will be interesting to work out.Some dungeons where you can't go into the next zone before killing certain bosses will be different. This buff is great and as you progress through dungeon, you get stronger is a great concept. What's the point of having this affix if you want the whole 20% buff right at the start of the dungeon? Might as well don't bother with affix mobs and just have an npc at the start that gives you buff for free! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Will there ever be a new seasonal affix that isn't "kill miniboss mob for buff"? The world may never know
Most likely a lot of classes will end up going vers for higher end keys and that doesn't sound super exciting. This is doing pretty much nothing for changing up your play style.
