i hope we get rid of all affixes in season 3 so we can enjoy the infinite scaling of dungeons. maybe having seasonal affix that is fun like nyalotha or in sepulcher might be a good idea but if it isnt fun then there is no point in them existing.
Something I'd like to see from WoWhead at some point would be an exhaustive list of all of the abilities each class has at its disposal in order to deal with these new affixes, like Incorporeal and Afflicted. Then when I pick up a new class, I can just go to that guide as a quick reference/reminder.
I think changing the icd on incorporeal to 30 or 35 seconds is probably the correct move here, simply because with the cast times not every spec with a hard CD is going to have it available.Classes like mage or paladin would be fine, but some have as high as 30 second CD, which is kinda cutting it.
They forget that the majority of their playerbase log in for fun.Things that actively lower the fun are never a good idea.Incorporeal just seems like a massive snooze/chore. Adding nothing exciting or rewarding, it is just another CC added to the pile of CC needed.It is in diametric opposition to the idea of playing the dungeon and not the affix.
So now we need class with :- Blood Lust/Hero- Brez- Hard CC.Where's the place for a Warrior in this? It was already lacking and clearly not a good class to have in a group, now what...?
Allow aoe cc and make em despawn after you cc em, problem solved.
I just played a bit on the ptr and afflicted seems pretty okay to deal with if you have one other class who can dispell them.Incorporeal on the other hand was actually difficult to handle with a prot pally, resto druid 2 hunters and a feral druid. We tried frost trapping them but seeing as frost trap has a minute cd you can only do that for 1 every 3 sets. The other 2 sets we really lacked kicks/stuns or any other cc to deal with them. Which let to having almost the entire dungeon only being able to do 50% dps.
Doesn't matter unless they incorporate a way for Click-casters to deal with Afflicted. They need their own "boss frame" or something that pops up that let's you use click-casting keybinds on without having to manually target them.Any time they force you to heal or dispel NPC's, they seem to forget that not everyone is using @mouseover macros for everything.This is even more important now, after they added the click-casting feature in the base game!
Looks like a lot of ppl have reading comprehension difficulties here.Let me help you... Not every class has SPAMMABLE cc. If you can't cast the cc again in like 5 sec, than it's rubbish.
