For S9, the new NMD affixes are far too bland for an endgame system. I think the devs really need to go big and bold for NMD affixes to make them truly challenging, such as:
New Nightmare Dungeons Affixes
- Sage’s Glyph- grants 100% more experience to level your glyph.
- Hoard of Oddities- nightmare dungeon contains a 1,500 obol chest.
- Chronomancer- triggers cooldown reduction on kill for short duration.
- Myth of Cain- nightmare dungeon chest’s may contain mythic unique (ultra-rare).
- Butcher’s Burrow- very high chance to spawn Butcher in nightmare dungeon.
- Lair of Brambles- nightmare dungeon monsters and boss now have thorns.
- Caustic Ground- sections of nightmare dungeon map floor is covered in poison.
- Hellborne Ambush- spawns duo of Hellborne to invade nightmare dungeon.
- Unwavering Darkness- nightmare dungeon now has minimal light radius.
- What Lurks Below- continuously spawns Hellworms in nightmare dungeon.
- Secret Cow Dungeon- nightmare dungeon full of Hell Bovine and Cow King boss.
- The Puppeteer- very high chance to spawn the Son of Malphas in nightmare dungeon.
- Realm of Lies- when you defeat boss, you trigger attack by Baby Belial.
- Realm of Greed- nightmare dungeon contains greed shrines, covered in piles of gold and gem fragments, along with treasure goblins (no monsters). The boss is Greed, mistress of all Treasure Goblins.
- High Council’s Revenge- spawns High Council in nightmare dungeon- the Sacred Physician, the Grand Inquisitor, the Lord Commander, and the Devoted Champion (from Cathedral of Light Capstone Dungeon).
- Hatred’s Revenge- nightmare dungeon spawns with two uber bosses, Hatred’s Remnant Uber Elias and Hatred Incarnate Uber Lilith.
