No. But the way bolstering does that is very inconvenient for a lot of classes.
Incovinient or challenging ?
I do mythics regardless of the affixes our week has⌠I donât think Bolstering and fortefied should go. It feels like crap sure⌠But this is the mythic week combo that makes you actually think about your pulls. Your kicks and mechanics besides bosses.
Instead of just having a sonic theme playing in your head with a gotta go fast mentality.
Fortefied and bolstering week makes you tip your toes and actually step back from the ââgotta go fastââ mentality besides bosses.
Its the affix combo that makes you think ââSlow and steady wins the raceââ xD cause if you go into this week with a ââGotta blast fastââ mentality your gonna wipe your group repeatedly. And loose the key

Inconvenient. Because, letâs take DH as an example, many classes nowadays just naturally cleave with their normal rotation. Why do you think they changed how raging worked? Because it caused the same problems but in a even heavier form. Affixes with a percental scaling mechanic in a gamemode with its own percental scaling by the keystone level have an absurd escalation potential. Much more than affixes which require certain moving/positioning actions to counter them.
probably within the saga expansions with there being so many dungeons designed for m+ , affixes will become less effective . right now withouf affixes dungeons like TOTT would be irrelevant o affixes do cover the lack of mechanics but there are also dungeons like VOTI dungeons where thereâs already enough mechanics etc. i think thatâs why affixes become an issue
Ok that just means you have to change the way you play around it slightly
they should just cap the amount of stacks an enemy can get.
And the same should be applied to bursting
1 stack with 1% dmg increase? Stack lasts a second too
Oh Iâm not trying to sway your opinion. Youâre as entitled to give feedback as anyone else 
. You arenât the only one who prefers kiss curse affixes.
I donât think they can really remove any more affixes, but I wouldnât object to them swapping Bolstering to a Tyrannical week.
Affixes are meant to be an annoyance IMO. I hate spiteful. Itâs not fun having to kill everything twice before you can move on/healer can drink/you can ress etc. Or worse everyone else in your group uses whatever portal/bubble lift and youâre left there with your âfriendâ 
I also discovered (the hard way) that if you have spiteful on you and youâre doing the speedy maze bit in DOTI, you donât get to go fast until it vanishes.

Just stun and move on to next pack
Or just move on to next pack, why waste a stun?
This is another example of people not being able to think more than 5 seconds ahead.
Player--------10 spiteful mobs ---------- Next pack
Could be
10 spiteful mobs ---------- Player ------------ Next pack
I know its not always that clear cut butâŚ

Exactly all affixes can be played around and thatâs a good thing. If you can ignore them whatâs the point
Ideally yes if you havenât already used your stun on the gazillion interrupts required on mobs. Or if you donât need to go through a portal. Or if your healer doesnât want to stop to drink. Or if you need to go through the maze. Or there arenât three on me etc.
But thank you for stating the absolute obvious. If you have cc you can use it on a spiteful.

Iâm having a great time with it. Itâs okay that sometimes you canât just hurpdidurpdidurpull300mobsandAoEthem.
Iâm against the affixes on a principal level, sort of. I think they could do more by creating different bosses or mobs or mechanics that change slightly every week, but I prefer this to nothing, and I donât think this affix is that bad.
Moving to the next pack doesnât get you out of combat.
Congratulations never would have guessed that
I did a 20 EB last night, pulled super safe because of the horror stories here and timed it with more than 10 min left. Yes, I know this is just a baby training wheels key yead yada.
There is no reason why you gigachad bigdong megaproxDqt types canât make this work on your big boy keys. You just need to change up your playstyle so you arenât bolstering abominations, and theres what, 2/3 of them in the dungeon?
The more I think about this, the more Iâm convinced affixes like this separate the unthinking tryhards from the people that can actually adapt as intended.
I think this âI only have fun pushingâ statement is really âI only have fun upping my score and I donât like it when you make it hardâ.
To those of you that refuse to adapt, week is halfway over, maybe you can make a pre-emptive whine about next weeks affixes.
Start with âwaaa spiteful touched me without permissionâ or " class X canât do incorp the sky is falling and I just want to push score".
Swear they made that change a few years ago? In sl or bfa
Your reward is the gear at the end of the key
The gear is just a bonus. Your actual reward for completing the key is the satisfaction of completing said key.
