FEEDBACK: 7.2 Mythic Keystone Dungeons

Hi all,

As mentioned in this week's PTR Development Notes, there are several changes to Mythic Keystone Dungeons now available for testing. We'd love to see any feedback you can give us regarding these changes, including the new dungeons, new and updated affixes, Artifact Power redistribution, and anything else you encounter that you feel is worth sharing.

Note: There is currently a known issue with Upper Karazhan Keystones which is causing you to start the run in the wrong location. We'll get that fixed in an upcoming build, but for now, we're going to hotfix the door that requires Moroes' Keys to be open by default, so you can progress through the dungeon that way.

Thanks!

Several new affixes have been added to the mix: Bursting, Fel Explosives, Quaking, and Grievous.
Bolstering, Necrotic, Skittish, Fortified, Tyrannical, and Sanguine have been adjusted, and Overflowing has been removed.

okay, but what does all of this mean more specifically? what are the new affixes, what do they do? how have the old ones been adjusted?

Here's that whole section from the lastest PTR Patch Notes:

• Mythic Keystone Dungeons
• Added 60 seconds to the Black Rook Hold timer.
• Killing Cove Seagulls should now add Enemy Forces credit.
• New Affix: Bursting (level 4) -- When slain, non-boss enemies explode, causing all players to suffer 10% of their maximum health in damage over 4 seconds. This effect stacks.
• New Affix: Fel Explosives (level 7) -- Creatures have a chance to summon an Explosive Orb at a nearby location that will explode, inflicting damage of 50% of the player’s maximum health.
• New Affix: Quaking (level 7) -- Periodically, players will Quake, inflicting damage of 20% of the player’s maximum health and interrupting spell casts of themselves and nearby allies.
• New Affix: Grievous (level 7) -- While below 90% health, players are afflicted with Grievous Wound.
• The Overflowing affix has been removed.
• The Bolstering affix range has been reduced to 30 yards (was 45 yards).
• Necrotic Rot will now expire after leaving combat. Duration reduced to 8 seconds (was 10 seconds).
• Skittish threat reduction has been lowered to 75% (was 80%).
• Fortified damage bonus lowered to 30% (was 40%).
• Tyrannical damage bonus lowered to 15% (was 20%).
• Sanguine radius increased to 8 yards.
• Mythic Keystones can now direct you to Lower Karazhan, Upper Karazhan, and the Cathedral of Eternal Night.
• Artifact Power rewards for Mythic Keystone dungeons have been adjusted:
o Longer dungeons, such as Halls of Valor, now award a proportionately higher amount of Artifact Power.
o Shorter dungeons, such as Maw of Souls, now award a proportionately lower amount of Artifact Power.
o Artifact Power bonuses have been added to your weekly chest rewards. These increase based on the highest level Mythic Keystone you completed.
