Burned out on Mythic +

Community General Discussion
1

I’m just not sure if I can do Mythic + anymore. I’ve been getting the same keys over and over again (Waycrest, Temple, Underrot) always with the worst affixes for each place. My ilvl has more or less plateaued, meaning the only upgrades I can get are either going to be titanforged or warforged. And on top of that, getting a group together and hoping they’ll stay for the duration is just nerve wracking each week.

You should create a m+ team or join a guild who has members devoted to m+. It’s pretty fun to be on be on discord talking to friends.

That’s pretty pessimistic to assume it’ll get worse and not better.

It’s just that time of the tier/patch/expansion, Krom. Most of us are gear capped, and if that at all was an incentive to you doing content, it makes said content feel less appealing.

Most of the mid-high to high IO grinding players hit massive walls now that last weeks easy affixes pushed their scores higher than the keys they can do this and next week; meaning there will be a massive lull if pushing score is your thing. My group and I are just taking a break for a few weeks and doing other things until more manageable affixes show back up.

So whether your IO is capped from last week to your skill, or gear capped from being late in the tier; right now is optimal burn out time for a lot of content.

On a bright note to add to my previous comment, the new Diablo season is coming up soon, and it is shaping up to be a good one if that is at all your thing. It’ll bridge the gap perfectly for 8.2

I wish I got Waycrests every week.

You could just not do M+ then, or just one a week. Many people do this.

If you’re not planning to raid mythic, and/or not pushing +20s or higher, your gear easily tops any remaining content, and is at a good starting point for S3.

Take a break? Sure beats praying for titanforges.

In the current climate where gear is no longer used to incentivize harder and harder content, the only reason for you to continue to play is to try harder content because you enjoy it.

I see you’ve only run +12’s. Maybe try to find a dedicated team to run M+ with and try to time harder and harder keys. It can actually be quite fun.

Except this week… Cause screw teeming, explosive, fortified… :stuck_out_tongue:

Next week is even worse than this week. Good affixes after though.

The fact that there are good and bad combos of affixes is a huge issue IMO

I was fully expecting the “hurr dur EsPorTz R BaD” in this comment section.

I was not disappointed

I have not ran any M+, Don’t care if I ever do. My experience with them have been nothing but bad. Can not ever see myself running another. And I don’t feel like I’m missing anything.

i did say it would get worse if m+ is still in the next expansion.

Many teeming packs are not things you can pull in large groups; they multiplied many skip mobs; or, in the case of dungeons like King Rest, you just skip the dungeon entirely because the teeming mobs they put in are ridiculous.

This of course is assuming you are running 20+ dungeons. There are only a few viable dungeons this week; I don’t even wanna think about how much more difficult motherlode is this week. While others, like siege of boralus + tol dagor are probably easier, thanks to the cheese mechanics of killing with niche things like cannons or the spotters.

Nah i’m only running 15s and maybe we’ll be doing 16s this week, depending on the key.

Then stop doing them. There are other things in this game you can do.

You could raid or add to your mount and pet collection. You have enough gear already anyway.

You are probably just annoyed because this weeks affixes are aids.

Even then, I probably would opt to skip on a king rest or motherlode at 15-16 this week as well. The mobs they chose to multiply honestly don’t make a whole lot of sense. It’s like the dungeon design team just threw teeming together at random with no thought. It’s already been nerfed a few times; but, teeming remains one of the most irritating affixes in certain dungeons thanks to which mobs were placed. Often they are the most critical mobs that require heavy attention, kicks, or full lock downs. This further complicates the already heavy melee meta; since you then NEED every kick you have available to you.

I feel for ranged DPS in this expansion, they’ve really gotten the short end of the stick.

M+ is garbage. Don’t do them, you will be fine.
