Affixes: Explained


Kain
 Share

Recommended Posts

Each mythic keystone above level 1 will have at least one random, unique effect present in the instance. These are called affixes. In addition to the health and damage increase, there are also an increasing number of extra mechanics you have to watch out for. Here's what each of them do (in approximate order of appearance per difficulty):

Keep in mind that some spell tooltips may not necessarily provide all/correct/accurate information, and serve only as an indicator for the affixes.

For the full immersion of the mythic system, we recommend turning up your graphics settings for a better visual experience. Alongside automatic Quest Objective Trackers (for the timer and progress counters, found in Interface->Game->Objectives), Spell Alerts (some client sided visual effects, found in Interface->Game->Combat), here are some settings that can also aid you in awareness (found under Options->Graphics) are: Multisampling, Projected Textures, Texture Filtering, Particle Density.

You can obtain a physical Mythic Keystone from Aggra that can remotely provide all information about your current keystone.
You can also inquire further information about each affix in-game.

Volcanic
While in combat, enemies periodically cause gouts of flame to spawn and erupt beneath the feet of players. Being hit by this effect causes players to take heavy damage, get their cast interrupted, and be slightly knocked back.
