nothing about Bostering bring fun game play it just brings BS one shots and make keys so toxic to push. you have a real problem when one week just forces people to not push M+. nothing is fun about pulling small and still dealing with one shot BS key after key. this just needs to be deleted and never come back it bring nothing but toxic BS to M+. its toxic enough on tyrant witch in and of its self this season has made boss fights awful at the 25+ range but now we have bolstering fort week…are you trying to kill M+ this week?

m+ participation has remained steady for the first few weeks of this season as there were some annoying affixes but nothing truly terrible.
this week is truly terrible. I don’t understand why blizzard keeps flip flopping on whether bolstering should be with tyrannical or fortified but this dungeon pool more than any other needs them separated.
The 2nd room in fall, you absolutely have to do the chronoburst and bloom guys solo. if they get 1 stack of bolstering they’re one shotting people.
everbloom aboms, the less said the better. why on earth do the flowers bolster? that first pull makes everything thats not a flower one shot. wasps one-shot, the leaves cast one shots. the whirlwinders one shot
throne of the tides you absolutely have to pull the swell elementals alone and you will still die because the spear goblins will start one shotting at the end of their pack.
rise have you seen the damage of that infinite fury from the last dragon after his two allies die? its unhealable even through normal defensives past the 24 range
blizz you removed seasonal affixes so you should be able to spend more time each season working on tuning and making sure the normal affixes make sense with the dungeons in the pool. you failed at that this season and key participation is about to drop off a cliff this week. and so many players don’t push at the quantity they did before after they take a week off. also its either incorporeal or afflicted next week so have fun trying to entice players back from this absolute disaster of a week with that.

Any affix that requires you to AFK and stop pressing buttons to beat it (bolstering/spiteful etc) is bad and should be deleted

EB abominations have like 3x the health of all the other mobs in each trash pack and is immune to CC. There’s no efficient way to just single this guy out and kill him first. WoW just isn’t that kind of game. Cleave and AoE are just part of everyone’s standard rotations.
So they get bolstered a bunch and one shot EVERYONE minus the tank with their party-wide. There is no thought or consideration with affixes interacting with dungeons. Always a coat of poop over what’s otherwise a fun and engaging experience.

first bear in DHT is like that to so on bolster you cant pull into it because passive cleave just kills everything first

Bolstering and Sanguine both need to go.
Trying to do some of these dungeons like Fall or Waycrest with bolstering is just cancer. Fall is the absolute worst with people able to get dots that tick for 500k.

I just want to mention every affix appears twice in the rotation, once with fort and once with tyrannical.
I disagree. All affixes should be as impactful as Sanguine and Bolstering.
Well yes but actually no. Players bring this on themselves by going full AOE builds and not being willing to do a little less overall by holding big AOE (e.g. Fel Barrage). Nobody wants to make sure the run succeeds but be on the bottom of the meter.

it’s funny because bolstering actually is a trash affix
it activates every time someone kills trash

EB was fun.
Ran Everbloom, was rather fun. Certainly preferred it more compared to the other runs I’ve done on non-bolstering.
I’ll be honest, I don’t find this week as bad as last week. At this point I don’t even know if last week was harder, I just find lengthy boss fights annoying.

I just wish there was better counterplay.
Should lower the radius mobs bolster at to be like 8yd max or something so it’s a little more feasible to separate mobs before death so it’s more manageable.
Most pulls you just can’t and just hope you don’t die, not much gameplay being added there.

Nobody cares what you think. You are totally detached from the rest of the player base.
Remove affixes.

You just want free loot.

This is not true. At all. Yes there is a lot of cleave built in to most DPS but people go full AOE in keys so they can be at the top of the meter. It’s so dumb to see people do 1M burst on a big pack, bolster the everloving crap out of the big guy who proceeds to one shot the tank, then do 100k on bosses.

Rise have miniboss dragon with 2 trash adds, the bolstered miniboss dragon is unhealable and it can literally one shot tank even with cooldown
You guys don’t enjoy turning a regular trash mob into a mini boss on accident?

It works fine for bursting. But it’s not practical to slow down every single pull x3 over for bolstering.
So yes it is true.
