Mythic+ Progression Changes Now Live and More Coming Soon
-
As part of our ongoing commitment to the tuning of both gameplay and rewards, we’ve some adjustments today, and we’re working on more coming soon.
Now Live
We’ve heard feedback around challenges in the new Keystone affix and scaling structure, as well as the difficulty some players are facing with making progress. With hotfixes that are now live:
- Runed Crests are now awarded up to Mythic Keystone +7.
- Gilded Crests are now awarded beginning at Mythic Keystone +8.
Coming later today
Mythic Keystone Affixes
- Increased the duration of the buffs granted by Xal’atath’s Bargain Affixes to 30 seconds (was 20 seconds).
- Developers’ notes: We’ve been closely monitoring the impact of the bonuses provided by Xal’atath’s Bargain affixes, and we’re increasing their overall power level on players. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these buffs as well as the challenges these affixes present.
- Xal’atath’s Guile now increases enemy health and damage by 10% (was 20%).
- Developers’ notes: With the increase to the buffs granted to players by Xal’atath’s Bargain we’re reducing the effectiveness of of Xal’atath’s Guile, to allow players to push deeper into the Keystone system with current item levels.
