Thundering

This week is finally the dealbreaker for me. 3 failed groups from pure RNG overlaps on Thundering with Quaking combined with boss effects.

Think its time to retire this season and this dumpster fire affix.

Sounds like bad play since you have 15 seconds to clear thundering and quaking isnt insta damage. Just need more awareness, “Hmmm we havent had quaking in a bit, we should clear thundering sooner to prevent a bad overlap.”

Until you get both overlapping right as you’ve gotta stand under the rune on the third boss in AV. Or when everything drops when eruption spawns on the 3rd boss in CoS.

to add to this, there’s a WA you can track quaking with. that alone should negate OP’s problem…

Edit: I don’t use one for thundering but I’m sure there is as the above commenter said.

absolute worst affix ever. And they really need to examine these seasonal affixes and understand what they are doing. The seasonal affix above all else needs to be fun and good to 99% of players. Unlike non seasonal affixes you can’t escape it. If it sucks, every dungeon the season will suck. If I don’t like explosive for example, I can just skip that week. Unfortunately there is no skipping the seasonal affix. So best make it good instead of horrible.

I’d even take thundering over prideful

I probably would to if I got to experience Prideful in higher keys than what I did in season 1

As he should :pleading_face:

You’re sitting at 2.1k io, keep grinding my man. This is easy mechanic to avoid.

Your avatar reminds me of the movie Cocoon only red.

Maybe boss 2 in HOV will disagree with you bro. Small dome, 2 affixes that prevent an overlap and a debuff circle. Get real.

But thundering doesnt prevent it, it’s actually a requirement…bro. The dome isn’t too small for quaking otherwise they’d adjust it or 2 people would just stack on each other and eat the 20% damage from the other.

You’re right the debuff from ball side is super stack friendly with quaking in an already tight heal check. /rollseyes

Or better yet the minuscule spit puddle in smbg with quaking.

You’re missing the point with the typical “derail” response. Yes these things ‘can’ be done, but none of these annoying overlaps are anything but garbage design that’s meant to be a headache than a creative obstacle.

Whoever at blizzard thought this affix was a good idea should be wacked in the head and maybe their brain cells will start working again.
