How Difficult is the current Mythic Plus season?

Comparable to DragonFlight season 4, how hard is this current season of Mythic Plus ?

Is it worse or better ?

Been seeing alot of mix opinions, kinda strange that 5s don’t give you 2k rating. The whole reason of them increasing the diffcults of the dungeons from last season was to avoid these high numbers but it seems things are Sliding back to high level keystones.

I could be absolutely wrong but it feels 5s from Season 4 were kinda the sweet spot for a lot of players, and this is also outside of the strange tank changes that did last minute.

Statistics speak for themselves. less than 1% have done 10 keys.

It’s easier because the affixes are brain-dead easy.

People are complaining because Blizzard added some sanity to the rewards, by reducing the welfare gear aspect. That’s what people are complaining about. “I can’t get the best gear in the game by playing Candyland anymore.”

So it’s harder than season 4 DF but how hard by alot or a little ?

It’s way easier compared to actually challenging seasons like BfA season 1 or 3.

Interesting, what did they do with the loot drops?

Like lower ilvl or less items ?

its honestly quite a bit harder.

You need to do a 10 to get Myth-track in great vault. Used to be a 7, last season, and people glom on to that, even though Blizzard changes things every season. But they treat the season 7 bar from DF like some sacred cow that must be followed forever.

The two seasons are not comparable as DF Season 4 was a fated gimme season and this is a ramped up ‘difficulty’ from normal seasons.
The fact that 5 people are even considering comparing the two in this thread goes to show that people love opening their mouths without knowledge on a topic.

those seasons weren’t hard they were annoying the seasonal affix’s for those seasons were just poorly designed. they weren’t difficult just annoying which turned alot of people off from pushing. otherwise honestly i think the hardest seasons at least to start was sl season one.

Very true. That’s why I went back further.

I think BfA season 1 (infested) and season 3 (with Azshara’s emissaries) were way harder than the current baby-mode affixes.

Oh god. Prideful.

I had managed to delte Prideful from my memory.

CandyCrush you mean.

Yeah it’s garbage content designed for 1% that only serves to make the game more toxic

A big part of the problem, as always, is Blizzard’s inept performance when it comes to class design.

If all the other healers could perform at Resto Shaman levels in keys, everyone would be having a much easier time of it.

Ditto for anybody unfortunate enough to run with a Prot Paladin or Brewmaster, instead of one of the real tanks.

Blizzard always treats class design like something that doesn’t matter. When it’s the most important thing in the game, because our characters are the interface through which we experience EVERYTHING in the game.

more difficult currently because theres alot of individual responsibility involved and high tuning. Expect maybe at least two more rounds of nerfs before keys go back to DF s3/4 levels

Reaping was so fun man, never understood why they didn’t bring it back

Thats, actually somewhat wrong. Their actually more comparable because of the dungeon difficulties rework, a 15 keystone is what a 5 keystone is now. (Minus the affixs) so their much more comparable because of that rework.

I feel 7 was the sweet spot, they should have honestly kept it there. In the old system that’s doing a 17 keystone comparably so it seems a bit unfair to say a 20 keystone for mythic track gear
