Good luck kiting boss with debuff stacking up 2 minutes already.
none of those affix makes the game harder, they just make it slow and annoying.
Bolstering + necrotic affix…
Avoid it , don’t tank it…let the week pass…
I personally call it the Rambo week , you know the one who goes against the whole “Usa police station” then “fight against the whole Vietnam” and “Soviet special forces in Afghanistan” so it’s a Rambo Week… re-roll DPS and don’t sweat.
the key i got out of weekly chest was a +12 TOP. with tyrranical and 5 bosses in there. It was stressful, but we made it through and i felt so relieved. i will say tho tyrranical is much better for me because it just deals less damage to me (than fortified), but the dps has so much space to mess up just once and die.
fortified is harder as tank but easier for the group. tyrranical is usually easier for the tank but harder for the group.
As a Kyrian Vengeance Demon Hunter tank, Necrotic is a non-affix. I have pretty good tools to help me kite, and if the party helps a little, dropping stacks is easy. If I can’t kite, I’ll pop Phial and clear it. I can even play Kleia, and get 8 seconds of immunity to it too.
As a healer, it’s also a non-issue if I have a tank who’s willing to try dropping stacks. I have a few tools to help them (ursol’s vortex, mass root), if they use it, we’re good.
The bad affixes this week are Bolstering and Tyrannical, mostly the latter - the former can be pretty much countered with priority target damage.

I tanked a +11 Necrotic Wake. Had fun fighting in a small room with mobs that can’t be slowed to get rid of your stacks. Spend an hour waiting for a tank in my next group i joined as DPS but no tanks signing up and group fell apart. I thought Wake might’ve been enjoyable after the nerfs but it’s still a crap hole.
How?
Now you get people who just create raid bosses.
How? Because my tank does now not get murdered every second. And i dont have to move out of a pack every moment something dies, waiting for the spite that is on me or not.
And with the aoe cap there is no way to make raidbosses.
You underestimate people. Pull 3 packs + shard in HoA. GG.
I dont pug 
Did PF15 with 20 minutes over the timer, was fun. 3 more 14/15s and I’m done for the week \o/
Aweful week, extremely punishing and easy to wipe. And much harder to time a key because tyranical. Watch dratnos last video, the guy who makes MDT routes etc, they class it as -3 from last week. So if you were barely scraping a +15 with a flawless run, you’ll be barely scraping a +12 key this week. With a lot more room for mistakes and wipes.
If their job is unchanged then they are doing something wrong.
This is only for the top valid. Not for me the +13/14 scrubber.
Its the kind of week where you do 10 +14 mists and then log off.
Their job isn’t unchanged though, who do you think is managing bolstering stacks?
Nobody manages it in pugs. You just get raid bosses.
Easy to wipe due to people being so stupid.
Do los pull. Melee charges in and pulls another pack. Wipe. Running back, someone runs into another pack. Wipe. Leave group.
Like, how hard can it be to not pull?
lol now that made me laugh, i dont think your the only one who feels that way 
I have gone tank as OS while healing on MS. I find some affixes are just plain nasty. I dont notice necrotic so much tanking as i do healing, and bolstering can be painful if one doesnt pull such big groups…with that said a bad aoe that pulls other mobs into the bunch can wipe easily. I am new to druid tanking so its gonna be fun to see how i do since servers need more tanks.
They need to remove it. No one finds it fun, and if they say they do, they are lying big time, atleast you can CC mobs on a fortified week…
