Coming soon, with the start of Battle for Azeroth Season 2, the Infested Affix will be retired and a new Seasonal Mythic+ affix will be added, called Reaping. We're not exactly sure what Reaping does just yet but some interesting spells on the PTR may give us some hints.
What is Reaping?
Reaping is the Season 2 Mythic+ Affix that will replace Infested. It will be present in every Mythic+ Dungeon that is Keystone Level 10 or higher.
Here's the description that we've datamined of Reaping.
Non-boss enemies are empowered by Bwonsamdi and periodically seek vengeance from beyond the grave.
Comparison to Infested
Let's take a look at the infested description.
Some non-boss enemies have been infested with a Spawn of G'huun.
Comparing this to the Reaping description, we can see that unlike Season 1 where only
some mobs
are Infested, Season 2 will have
all
non-boss enemies empowered.
This seems to indicate that you'll have to deal with
Reaping
on every trash mob, and not just a select few.
Reaping Related Spells
So what hints were added on the PTR? Check out the following spells.
女王法令:反冲
- Grants nearby allies Aura of Reaping, reflecting 75% of damage dealt back at the target.
女王法令:反冲
- Reflects 75% of damage dealt back at the target.
反冲
- Inflicts Shadow damage equal to 75% of the damage dealt to the target.
This seems like some mobs will have
女王法令:反冲
, giving a Reflect Damage modifier to the rest of the pack! This aura seems very similar to
戈霍恩共生体
as it doesn't affect the mob with the aura. A 75% damage reflect seems very high, but it's important to remember the
Reaping
description. This isn't Infested where some packs will have a mob with
女王法令:反冲
, but mobs will "periodically seek vengeance from the grave."
There's a lot of spells called
Bwonsamdi's Pact
, 20 in fact, some added in previous builds and more added in this build. These spells are not currently listed in the Dungeon Journal for the Battle for Dazar'alor raid, so it's possible that they're related to the Reaping affix. Each of these spells have to tooltip description but we can see some of their additional effects.
邦桑迪的契约
- Summon
复生之魂
. Value: 5. Duration 1 minute.
邦桑迪的契约
- Summon

邦桑迪的契约

.
邦桑迪的契约
- Summon
失落的灵魂
.
邦桑迪的契约
- Increase Run Speed % - Stacks. Value: 10%. Interval: 3 seconds.
We don't know for sure that these spells are related to the
Reaping
affix but it appears to fit the bill. I don't think Blizzard would want to resummon mobs you've already killed, complete with its abilities. If these mobs are related, it's likely these creatures will likely be "token mobs", who have a smaller health pool and don't have any abilities other than the
女王法令:反冲
aura.
Speculation
If both of these sets of spells are related, then it's likely that mobs will respawn with the
女王法令:反冲
aura and chase down the group. Mobs may respawn completely randomly, or after a set amount of time causing groups to be very careful of where they're currently tanking active mobs -- You wouldn't want a Reaping mob to respawn right in the middle of your current group!
By the spell data in
邦桑迪的契约
, it's very likely they'll chase down the group very quickly and with the 75% Reflect modifier, it seems intended that you never want that aura up on a group of mobs. Similar to dealing with Spawns of G'huun, you'll want to use CC's to keep these Reaping mobs out of the group, while killing them before returning to the pack at hand. The longer you take to kill the mob, the faster it ends up traveling.
This can be a very punishing affix for those who allow the Reaping aura to run rampant but it's important to note that this aura only affects
OTHER
enemies allowing you to kill them without taking damage.
