Dreadlords on Draenor? ZZZ... (Season 4 M+)

We’ve got our first sneak peek at the new Seasonal Affix for Season 4. It seems pretty boring. Definitely a step down compared to Season 3.

Looks like these spooky bois are going to be showing up in Dungeons -

We gain bonuses for the duration of the key for taking them down, presumably meaning you want to route through them and take them down when you can.

Looks like the Dreadlords cast a cloud you have to dodge or you take a nap, and they top themselves off with a life-stealing attack so you may have to burn them down rather than passively cleaving.

VERY boring affix. This is the most low-energy affix we’ve seen this entire expansion. I kind of rather they just keep the Season 3 Seasonal Affix.


inb4 “At least they’re doing something new”. No, no I’d rather stick with the Encrypted affix which lets us do cool stuff rather than replace it with the most boring affix I could imagine. The dungeon pool being almost completely rotated is enough of a shake-up that we don’t need to replace this expansion’s best affix with garbo.
