What is this affixes ? Blizzard you didnt even bother yourself to check the affixes , idk but its close to impossible to play this affixes . If you dont listen to players to remove or change these affixes at least dont let these to be random or based on a cycle .

There’s a big thread over here about the current affixes, why don’t you join the feedback thread?
If they are close to impossible, how did they do it +30 this week? And how is everybody with a bit of knowledge about this game doing 24-25s?

Timed a +23 EB, which is kind of in line with what I was pushing last week. That said, this affix has its issues in the current dungeon rotation and I hope they nuke it from orbit.

Game design should just ignore 0.01% edgers and streamers. I don’t care about them just because they have no job and can sweat into this game so much

Bolstering doesnt have extra health or infinite duration anymore. So there is that.
For this one there should always be PvP.
Not PvE.
Any coop PvE mode shouldnt be sweat designed because PvE is never ever a satisfying endgame challenge for the highest tier of sweaters. There are clear borders, which arent in PvP and anybody tryharding will face them eventually. In PvP because of its nature of infinite unforeseen variables of how a player will interact, this wont exist.
And for “normal” players you can easily adapt to do at least the usual level of key you used to do.
You need to change perhaps 2/3 pulls per dungeon.
Game design should also ignore people who can’t focus one mob in a pack, and people who blame an affix for their failures.
I’m working 5 days/week 9 hours per day. Still done 4 25s and 4 24s this week. Just because I can adapt.
Ox shut up cry baby. The only problem with bolstering is if the pull is to big in Everbloom. Then it becomes bit scary. If you can’t handle big pulls then do small ones.
Yoooo bro
I timed 22/23 keys this week
It is a harder but it is not even close to IMPOSSIBLE.
Doesn’t seem impossible to me…
It should be revisited and redesigned, not eliminated. There’s nothing impossible about this combination even in higher keys, it’s just one of the most frustrating ones.
I think I’m coming to the conclusion that in the WoW forum there are 2 types of people 
the crybabies (which I fit in this category sometimes ) and the braggers who keep boasting they’re better than the rest of the people wake up call: you’re better than people in a videogame. You’re a one and a zero among billions of ones and zeroes. Congrats. 
Edit: boy, I’m getting old and cranky 
it’s concerning.

It does seem par for the course that one person raises and issue and is then met with L2P or EZ comments.
This week is not a fun combination. Ofc that isn’t going to stop the meta comps and high end players. They are exceptional.
However, that doesn’t mean others can’t recognise that this can result is some horrible experiences for the rest of us mere mortals.
This week I have found I’m very reliant on the tanks having a clue what to pull, combined with everyone not overlapping their interrupts too much, clearly something that is much easier for organised groups. In contrast I had a dungeon where a dps (WW) didn’t do a single interrupt the entire run.

Thats something that has changed over the years as well.
Eye of Azshara we used to pull a bazillion crabs and aoe them down and once we got a seagull in with it and turned it into the size of Godzilla and spent ages fleeing from it laughing. That seagull was our discord server pic for years.
Maybe the affix just past its sellby date but now the second people need to change their behviour or think its as if the world is ending (stop dps for 3 whole seconds to stop bursting stacking!?!?!?! The horror)
At its core, I’m still happy to tell people its a l2p issue. Pushing high keys is also about overcoming the challenge that week presents to you. It’s not enough to just pull 10 packs and go “brrrrrr” which is clearly what people want.
The simple fact is that people moan about every affix. The big thread about bursting, the person that made that has complained about every other affix too. Maybe affixes need a rethink, or we need a break from them like the seasonal one, dunno.

And they shouldnt cater to lazy people who want everything to be easy either
We were joking the other day about the raid boss crabs or seagulls we used to get. All you could do was die and carry on 
I think I mentioned earlier the game really can’t keep removing affixes. I honestly don’t remember if back in Legion we had Bolstering combined with Fortified or not.
This is the most fun aspect for me when doing dungeons.
I find affixes unfun, but they aren’t designed to be fun IMO. I could rate them in a list of hate most to least hated but that’s about it. There is never a week where I go, oh yay it’s so and so affix. Affixes are there to vary the dungeons weekly and make you play differently. I would be happy with just an ever increasing health/damage pool but others would hate that. Some would like to see more kiss curse effects. I really hate those, they make or break keys.
But I agree people will always complain, not necessarily the same people. However, there will always be complaints. I personally hate spiteful.
I can probably read this sentence every week and being still relevant
Tbh I don’t blame anyone for finding affixes hard, heck as a bdk tank I used to complain A LOT about necrotic last expansion.
I think that making bolstering dispellable by healers would be a niche QoL.

It’s spiteful on reset, I hate that affix with a passion.
But I don’t think any affix makes you think ooh yay. I generally prefer Fort over Tyr, cos Tyr is just boring long boss fights. It’s a dungeon not a raid.
