In May 2023, Season Two of World of Warcraft Dragonflight introduced several new affixes to the Mythic+ pool. These include Incorporeal, Entangling, and of course, Afflicted.
Afflicted Mythic+ Affix Guide #dragonflight #worldofwarcraft
The Afflicted affix spawns a "friendly" enemy that cannot be damaged. Instead of whittling the affix down to zero, you must heal it and remove its affliction. If you fail to help the Afflicted Soul within a certain time frame, you will be punished with a severe debuff to your Haste stat.
Afflicted appears in Mythic+ runs at keystone levels five and above. Here’s how to best deal with the affix, and which classes you should bring to your runs to ensure Afflicted doesn’t run rampant in your party.
When Afflicted is an active affix, you'll occasionally have to deal with adds called "Afflicted Souls" that spawn during combat. Unlike most other adds that need to be killed, Afflicted creatures must be fully healed to 100 percent HP to make them go away.
