    Talking Is Bolstering the most entertaining affix?

    Who doesn't like creating new bosses? Whether it’s the green Blob that’s eaten too many mini-blue ones in Arcway or the snail with his sacrificial murlocs in EoA, we’ve had some good times with this one. Sure, a pro group can go the whole instance without letting this happen (has to happen by accident, imho, or it’s not the same), but what fun would that be?

    Best week is Bolstering-Skittish-Fortified, btw. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!

    Also, bolstering a Snail in EoA with all 3 Packs of blobs. On +11 fortified. Where are your gods now?

    It's all fun and games till someone sees a video of your 880 mains wiping to a snail and murlocs.

    And that blob in Arcway! I swear it had 150 million health! We only beat it because releasing spawned you back at same spot.

    I fucked up on a EoA Trashpull and created a 200 Mil HP Murloc-Leader-Dude. I had to kite him, because he hit like a truck.

    Also - we had to fight him like 3 Minutes or so. Not my smartest moment.

    We once managed to bolster a dude to 374m HP I believe. And yes OP, watching a worm in Nelths lair grow up to be as big as the boss cos "hurr durr all my spellz aoe!" is funny in hindsight but at the time I'm generally pissed at peoples idiocy.

    I'd say that Bolstering is one of the few affixes that, I think, is in line with the intention of affixes. It doesn't completely fuck up the instance (e.g. Teeming/Necrotic) requiring much higher damage, special team setup (in terms of tank or stuns) while still needed to be played properly (spread the AoE appropriately and do not mispull).

    In fact, I'd say it is the ONLY affix that I am actually satisfied with.

    Volcanic is pretty fun too. Love to see ranged dps cry in agony after getting oneshot by a tripple volcano.

    You're meant to all run out of the dungeon entrance after you kill the big purple blobs. They all despawn then. Way more time effective unless someones on a toaster, and even then it's faster.

    Was this a boomkin? Sometimes it's so annoying that all my spells cleave lol. You know how annoyed I get when tanks put mobs next to neutral mobs? I can't sunfire because that cleaves, I can't full moon because that cleaves, I can't lunar strike because that cleaves, DON'T TANK NEXT TO NEUTRALS.

    We actually did this on accident. It would have taken so long to kill him we just ignored him and continued. He eventually deaggroed
    I dont play in a hardcore no-lifer guild, but in a 2 days a week "hardcore" mythic guild.

    Yeah, that's what we should have done. It's frustrating not being able to mount, but running beat wiping.

    Sadly, a single stack of bolstering prevents mind controls, for exactly that reason.
