During a Content Creator Summit, production director Michael Bybee and senior game designer Sean McCann revealed that Mythic+ dungeons might be getting positive affixes in The War Within, as first reported by Wowhead. \u201cYeah, that's actually something that we've talked about. Again, don't have anything specific to announce about it right now, but it's the kind of thing that we talk about, trying to push the boundaries of what this experience is, make it more interesting, etc. Those are the kinds of changes that we talk about,\u201d Bybee explained when asked about introducing positive Mythic+ affixes. If you\u2019re not familiar with the term, positive affixes would entail players getting a buff or reward for doing a mechanic correctly. Right now, the only affixes that exist are negative ones, and you\u2019re heavily punished if you fail to play around them. For example, when you get hit by Entangling, you have to quickly move out of the marked area, or you\u2019ll be CCed. Other affixes, like Sanguine, Storming, Volcanic, Spiteful, and Incorporeal, also fall into this category. There aren\u2019t any affixes that reward players, but they could make Mythic+ dungeons a lot more fun and varied. If Blizzard Entertainment adds them, they could entirely change the way the players approach Mythic+. Healers are usually left to deal with affixes because DPS classes are too busy doing damage, but buffs would entice more players to help out with mechanics. The idea of introducing positive affixes was first mentioned in 2023, when WoW content creator Caroline \u201cNaguura\u201d Forer asked Blizzard through X (previously known as Twitter) to eliminate the \u201cfrustrating factors\u201d from Mythic+ dungeons. Since then, the idea has lingered in WoW community, but Blizzard didn\u2019t say anything until now. Hopefully, the feature will be introduced early in The War Within.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/WoW-Dragonflight-Mythic-dungeons.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1214569"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2132"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1214569"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1214569\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1214897,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1214569\/revisions\/1214897"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/830509"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1214569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1214569"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1214569"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1214569"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1214569"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1214569"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1214569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
