Reaping as an Affix?

Everyone makes posts about which affixes to get rid of but I don’t see many people mention what they would like to take their place.

Why not bring back Reaping as an affix? It was fun, easy and you got big numbers out of it. I’m pretty sure people loved it during season 2 of BFA. Arguments against it?

If you want to uncap all the specs that are still unfairly capped then sure.

Standing by to spam Epidemic on Reaping. Peak design tbh.

Cries in fury warrior.

It was one of the more fun affixes. But I feel somehow if Blizz decided to bring it back, they’d figure out a way to make it not fun.

As a healer, I hated reaping. I would be in the middle of burst healing through a giant pull in Shrine of the Storms and suddenly 8 caster mobs would spring out of thin air aggro immediately to me and I’d get 8 bolts to the face. Happened with melee too and it sucked every single time, no matter how much I tried to prepare with positioning, damage reduction or cc.

In fact, it would proc at terrible times when the first mob in a big pack would die, so now you’ve got a 3 caster pack that turns into a 7-10 caster pack and now the tank is getting melee’d for their full health while you’re trying to LOS and range are obliviously causing adds to remain in the back, free-casting your group to oblivion.

Hard pass from me.

I liked the game more during BFA, I’m more than fine with uncapping AoE.

Reaping was a good one.

Reaping was fun, yeah. I´d still be for a kiss / curse thing. DF S4 tho… zero hype. First time fated in SL was kinda interesting to raid and we hat a new seasonal. but DF Fated… Not keen for Fated raids and ESPECIALLY zero interested in all 8 DF dungeons with those extremely sucking Affixes without anything new. Imo a really bad fillerseason this time.

Never heard a healer complain about Reaping before lmao. It was a complete non-affix and I figured they would have to actually make it matter if they brought it back.
