I'm going to fix all the affixes for you

Because I forgot the name of the achievement.

This can be applied to any form of content people can get carried through everything

Yes, that’s why it’s silly to make generalisations about people based on what content they’ve completed. It’s also not even about being carried. That’s just the level of play required to down the content, particularly late in the tier. People getting truly carried, or buying carries is an entirely separate conversation.

Here are some alternatives to these ideas for dealing with all the affixes:

All affixed are worthless garbage and are being removed.

The end.

As long as it also contains:

“Added actual mechanics to many trash and bosses that were found to be putting players to sleep. Also increased key scaling and shortened timers (except Rise) because we found players were easily timing keys while watching Netflix.”

In an infinitely scaling system, adding arbitrary difficulty isn’t very important. Want it to be harder? Go do a higher key. Easy.

And trash has more mechanics than at any point in wow history. We don’t need more of them.

It’s important where Blizzard puts rewards relative to difficulty. Nobody cares that it gets super duper hard at a +8136 key.

Anything can get super hard with a lazy infinite scaler slapped on. I’m sure a +12688 Word Quest would be super hard too.

A lot of trash has minimal going on, and most of the bosses (not Dawn) have players barely doing anything. AD and BRH especially.

No thanks, I’m perfectly happy snoozing through my weekly keys. If you like m+, you can go do higher ones if you want to. I don’t, and I just want to fill my vaults for the week. I’d just assume it take less time.

Imagine if the forums were talking about how they enjoy snoozing through their quick pug mythic raid clear to get the vault knocked out for the week lol.

To be fair, that’s basically how Mythic reclears tend to be when you’re farming mounts for people, or selling carries once everyone has their mount. I remember a couple of times where we were doing our normal swapping people out, and we continued without a person because they fell asleep.

I don’t think I could give you a count of how many raids I did half-asleep back in the day. Hell, if you go far enough back, the number of zombie-mode Karazhan runs would probably be hilarious.

I felt this way since the start of season 2. Blizzard deleted the wrong affixes. The seasonal affix, for better or worse, was always the most interesting. Now it is gone and we have the boring debuff/extra health affixes remaining. I feel like this change was completely backwards.

I never dropped out of a season so fast as last one. I was done with M+ after week 3, and I have no desire to do it this season either.

Imagine if you could infinitely scale the difficulty of raids so it wouldn’t matter at all lol

I only disagree on the grounds that trash in both of those dungeons kill a lot of players, even on easy affix weeks. I’ve been in numerous groups that fail to kick when there’s only a single Dominator in the pull.

I think the difference is the timers are much more forgiving.

Make bursting overlap instead of stacking would be a great idea. Other than that the rest of this is just a really bad take.
