Or you can just form your groups better? It’s not like people would use the tools even if they were given to them. I still see tons of people with no interrupts and everyone has an interrupt.
Also, like Abendroth point out

I’m sure they’ll get right on that.
Just get a pile of those poison removing consumables tailors made

Raider.io seasonal rep and WCL parse count is hilarious to review over the past 6-7 years.
The fotm rerolling is non-stop, although at this point I’d imagine many people have a lot of characters at or near the cap anyway just since the game is so old that they can easily swap. That combined with how insanely fast and easy gearing is in the modern game.
It’s the same in classic, looking at parse count of warriors, mages, and rogues in vanilla classic be incredibly high then boom TBC hits and it’s a massive 180 shift to hunters and warlocks.
It’s what WoW is to its players. Constant fotm rerolling.
If people are mainly concerned with performance, of course they’ll play whatever gives them an edge. Nothing wrong with that just like there’s nothing wrong with people only playing one toon because they prefer that one.

You can interact with both as a dh
Non issue
You need two people to do them.
That’s three people that don’t have to do anything.
Exactly, those affixes basically comunity benched certain clases, which is plain dumb.

If there’s absolutely no slot in a group for your class because the group needs all 5 to be able to deal with it, you’re probably better off not joining them. Planning for failure from 3 players out of 5 is never a good sign.
I feel its more like people knowing someone else CAN or COULD help with the affix, but knowing beforehand he is not able to, its just a solid pass.
Yet people build groups without more than one bres/lust all the time. They’re clearly used to not needing everyone to be able to cover a need.
Yeah just take a look at the hunter that won’t use their lust because of dps loss yet will use a gcd to deal with the affix? When they wouldn’t deal with explosives either? Right…

The massive shifts in parses and rep season to season and expansion to expansion makes it pretty clear that fotm swapping is the majority of the playerbase.
Which is what the playerbase is, and I guess it’s fine, people can play how they want.
That’s not a hunter problem or an affix problem, it’s a player problem. Bads gonna bad.

You just described 90% of affixes.
Not every class interacts with Volcanic. Only ranged classes do.
Not every class interacts with Sanguine. Only melee classes do.
Not every class can interact with Raging. Only Rogue, Hunter, and Druid can.
Not every class can dispel (which, as you’re saying requires a tool in their kit), Entangling every time it’s up, only Paladin, Druid, Monk, Hunter, and I think that’s it? can. Everyone else has to manually run it, or has a very long CD on their dispel.
Etc.
I pull out a mouse pet to use Master’s Call on the Council Fight in Freehold.
That’s a bad player problem, not a hunter problem. Stop generalizing. That’s like if I called it a paladin problem because I meet so many paladins that won’t use blessing of freedom on barrels in the council fight and force me to use my mouse instead.
Guess you shoulda helped kill explosives when you had the chance.
I absolutely disagree. Every class doesn’t need to have an answer for every affix. It is ok to have a player or two in your group who can’t dispell Afflicted. And everyone can in fact interact with incorporeal. Some classes might not have a hard CC but they have interrupts and that’s helping the group.
I pug all my M+ runs and both weeks every player in every group did their best to handle the affixes any way they could. Runs went smoothly and no one got bent out of shape.
You guys are making this a way bigger deal than it actually is. Just relax.
That said, the afflicted mobs need better visuals.

Idk I kindve like that classes have unique strengths and weaknesses, Not everyone has to have the exact same utility.
It would be one thing if the affix required 5 people to deal with it, but when it can be solved by 1 or 2 people, it then feels okay.
Everyone now has an answer to incorp.
Afflicted is honestly a healer affix and I think that’s okay. There are other affixes that impact certain roles more than others. Like sanguine imo is a tank affix.
