Summary

  • Players can only apply for five Mythic+ Dungeon parties at a time.
  • Mythic+ Dungeons provide challenges and rewards for dedicated players.
  • Suggestions included increasing the application cap to 10-30 in response to restrictions.

With season one of World of Warcraft: The War Within underway, a player shared that applying for Mythic+ Dungeons is restricted to five active applications at a time. In response, several World of Warcraft players discussed alternatives to the current application limit, including increasing the limit or outright removing it.

Mythic+ Dungeons in World of Warcraft are a way to add increased challenges and rewards for dedicated players to push within a content patch. These Mythic+ Dungeons have affixes that change constantly, with some either increasing enemy health or adding gimmicks to hinder players' progress. World of Warcraft players who complete Mythic+ Dungeons within the time limit will earn increased rewards based on their performance. With each World of Warcraft content update, the Mythic+ Dungeon rotation changes with it. Currently, four dungeons from The War Within and four from past expansions are available for players to challenge.

Although Mythic+ Dungeon runs are a popular part of World of Warcraft, the feature is not without some flaws that players want to change. On the r/wow subreddit, a user named Szelenas posted a small screenshot to spark a conversation about a restriction that Mythic+ Dungeons currently have. At the time of writing, players who want to find a group for specific Mythic+ Dungeons at different keystone levels can only apply to five different parties at a time, with each party usually consisting of a Tank, a Healer, and three DPS. However, the sheer number of available DPS specializations, such as the Frost Death Knight, often make finding a Mythic+ Dungeon party a challenge due to the sheer number of players applying for fewer spots.

World of Warcraft Players Discuss Alternatives to Mythic+ Dungeon Restrictions

  • World of Warcraft players debate alternatives to current application restrictions in Mythic+ Dungeon groups.
  • Currently, players can only apply for five Mythic+ Dungeon parties at a time.
  • The War Within Season One has eight Mythic+ Dungeons in the rotation.
  • Players discussed the pros and cons to removing or increasing the current application cap.

In their post, Szelaenas suggested removing the cap on Mythic+ Dungeon applications altogether. However, other players offered alternative ideas in the r/wow thread. Some suggestions stated that Blizzard could increase the application cap from five to around 10 to 30, and for some applications to expire after one to two minutes rather than the current five minutes. While some World of Warcraft players utilized addons in The War Within to filter through groups looking for players who have completed up to a certain Mythic Keystone, others wished for Blizzard to revamp the group finder's interface to include more controls and filters for Mythic+ Dungeon players to use as they wish.

Though World of Warcraft players remain divided on the state of Delves and Mythic+ Dungeons, the cornerstone features of The War Within are popular methods of getting a character geared up. It remains to be seen what changes Blizzard will implement down the line.
