Create your own affix

Threads complaining about the necrotic affix dont seem to suggest a better replacement.

So i think we should give blizz affix ideas to replace the ones we dont like.

My idea for necrotic replacement: Tank buster

when in combat with non boss enemies tank receives a stacking debuff that when it gets to a certain number the tank is blasted backwards. Doesnt reset on leaving combat but also isnt applied during boss fights(maybe?)

doesnt force kiting, can be played around by the tank player. Requires awareness to not get yeeted into additional trash or off ledges, etc. can be used to be launched into next pulls. Potential for hilarious outcomes

I’d create an affix call “elitism enforcer” named after the addon “elitism helper”.

All avoidable damage is increased by 200%.

If anything, this affix will teach clueless DPS how to not stand in front of cleaves and pay attention for once.

As a tank, if have to deal with something as dumb as necrotic, sanguine and explosive it’s only fair dps get their own ridiculous hindrances.

In the spirit of Christmas time, Santa’s Gifts.

Periodically through the instance Santa will drop either a buff or a debuff on the players. If you’ve been doing good (avoiding damage, using cooldowns, doing good dps) Santa gives a buff based on your class and spec. If you’ve been bad, well Santa gives you a lump of coal to carry around for awhile.

Since I just recently done that Maze for the Lucid Nightmare mount…

Every five minutes the group is randomly teleported to somewhere in the dungeon.

Ursol’s Thrash:

Damage taken by the player is increased 5% by every mob past 3 currently within 8 yards of the player.

Nerzul’s Torment:

Mobs become tormented spawning a max of 5 orbs at once, the orbs pulse AOE damage every 1s they remain alive. Maximum spawn rate is 1 every 4s and 1 per mob. Replaces Explosive.

Teleported to last boss with first boss still engaged and pulling everything in between

I love the idea of utilizing emotes/actions for encounters. The CN dance idea was neat, but some disappointed that it dances for you.

Not so much an affix since dmg can make you stand up, but maybe a boss mechanic that requires we quickly /sleep to avoid having our character take a one-shot.

Insecurity:

Bosses are insecure about their position having recently been promoted. Dungeons are split into ‘wings’ and boss damage and health is increased by the percentage of trash still alive in the wing plus 20% if any mob is still alive to cheer them on. Key percentage is removed for this affix. Replaces Tyrannical.

Zombiefied

If any player is killed, that player returns to life as a mind controlled zombie with high health that players must kill.

This would waste time from having the player die, plus the time it takes to kill the zombie, plus a second time penalty when the zombie dies. Limit 1 zombie at a time.

Reroll Troll

If you are not a Troll, you instantly die.

“Brains of the outfit” - A random mob in a trash pack has better than average AI. Is able to use interrupts, targets the healer or stuns you and runs away (A-la Sneaky Pete). Something similar to Faction Champs in Trial of the Crusader.

I’ve always wanted to see how “skilled players” handle smart mobs in a dungeon setting.

Alliance beat this by having a troll transmog toy, or wearing one of the Flimsy Troll Male or Troll Female masks.

The bad dps will just blame the healer then, they won’t learn anything.

Here is a idea. Remove the trash affixes thus remove those weeks from rotation and making it a 8 week rotation instead of 12 weeks.

All dungeons have half the enemies present, and you can also skip one boss. However, all enemies and bosses also have a fourth random affix and have a chance to duplicate if not interrupted.

The Limbo Affix - where certain parts of the dungeon have low doorways only accessible to races dorf and smaller. Those wings have extra loot.

There is a chance a random key will roll no affixes (free loot).
