afflicted should be getting immediately dispelled upon spawn anyway, so i dont see how this is an issue
could you pass Corrosion to an afflicted, then dispel it to purposely remove the debuff from the fight, or is it only targetable to be casted on?
AAA company by the way guys
People complaining about Afflicted don't realize how free it is, two ghosts can be soloed in two clicks by any druid, shaman, paladin, priest, monk, evoker. That's basically half of the classes in the game lol. I get it as tank or dps on my paladin every time, it's so free. It requires no thought. Click click. You lose like 10 attacks over the course of the dungeon. /yawn
Since Blizz hasn’t disabled this immediately, it looks like they view this as a negative to players, even though a few mechanics can be circumvented (by chance). If they view this as beneficial to players, you know damn well they would have disabled it already.
Maybe this gets rid of afflicted for season 4 onwards?
Just delete this god awful affix already. NO ONE LIKES IT!
Afflicted is a problematic affix that should go away. This affix forces you into having another class besides the healer to dispell the Afflicted, and that extra dispeller does his/her job (in my experience Retri Palas and Mages dont know what Cleanse and Remove Curse is even if they are specced into the talent).You cannot create a party, say Warrior, DK, Warlock, VDH, BL healer on an afflicted week without putting too much stress on the healer. Let's not start talking about how Unholy DK has nothing practical to address Incorporeal or Afflicted. Frost and Blood are fine against Incorporeal with Control Undead, Unholy all it can do is to AMS itself. If an Unholy DK uses Control Undead atleast 20% of his dps is gone for 20 seconds. Warrior is not fine. Rogues are not fine against either. Hunter is useless against Afflicted.This affix's issue. Atleast my issue anyway, is that it is not optional. It is not Raging where you can address it with kiting and interrupts that everyone has a way to interrupt/silence them if there are no enrage dispellers, even if there were Soothe, Shiv and Tranq shot helps with only 1 target. Do you follow me ?Raging does not restrict you to play with certain classes.
Dont care aug players deserve this by a mile.
