As the title says; I wish every week was push week.
I love playing m+, but my biggest gripe is how some weeks are unplayable, obnoxious and the opposite of fun to play. I can easily play 10+ keys a day, when the affixes feel good to play.
So what is a bad affix in my opinion? Necrotic (this x100), grievous, skittish, tyrannical on very high keys and in some dungeons inspired.
I dont mind changing a route, adepting a certain playstyle for some affixes, but these affixes that I have mentioned completely changes the mythic plus experience for me. In necrotic weeks no tank will log in and at grievous weeks no healer wants to play. On high tyrannical most player dont want to play at all and on skittish and sometimes spiteful, melee stay out of dungeons.
When either of these affixes are current, me nor my friends hardly play - neither does the streamers/high end mythic plus players I follow. Why struggle with a +24 key when you were able to do +28 the other week.
There must be some data around m+ that shows the devs how the majority doesnt play during for example necrotic weeks. This post is mostly made out of spite after realising it is necrotic week. A week where you pop all your cooldowns, immunities ect. and then just kite as a tank and pray to god. It is really not enjoyable.
Edit: I forgot the most important thing for me. Push weeks are actually really, really stressful .
You know this is the week, where you can score all the points. More points than you can do in maybe the next 2 months. I almost feel a bad source of anxiety, if I can’t play much during that week - because that is the week to push keys.
Indeed some affixes are harder, and some combinations are just aids.
The root cause itself that we have both very easy ones and very hard ones. We either need everything be easy or hard.
Ofc I myself not doing extremely hard keys (15-20 range), but for me necrotic alone is not that bad honestly (there are many counterplays to it). Add sanguine to the mix and you can simply skip whole week, because counters you use for necrotic simply doesn’t work on sanguine (roots, treants, mass slows, kiting). And just smash fortified for the good measure.
Skitish is another weird affix, just punishing dps for doing dps.
I’ve stopped m+ now until 9.2 (not that I did a lot anyway) but yeah, some affix combos are awful which results in dead keys that nobody wants to run.
Love your character name too, I’m a big fan of Bowie
As a healer, I don’t mind grievious. At the level of keys I do (early +20s), it doesn’t make much of a difference. It does change a few things, where I use certain cooldowns, or whether I ask my team not to pull certain things together, but that’s about it. It’s pretty inconsequential for me otherwise.
I am really glad they aren’t.
I like chill weeks, when I don’t feel pressured into pushing, weeks where my biggest goal is to fill the vault, and have a reasonable key for next week. Necrotic week is such: I’ll time a +20, then do 9 +15s, and log on alts to farm transmogs. A week well spent!
This entire “push week” thing is really stupid.
Designing a game over what super high keys look like is the best way to make the game for the majority dull and trash.
You should tune affix around 15-20keys, if some affix become insane during a +30 well tough luck, no one really cares except the 10 people probably doing those, playerbase should not lose out variety out because of key pushers.
