Atal'Dazar +10 is mine this week, which I think is a decent one?

What are the affixes this week?

Tyrannical and Bolstering sound awful for pugging it, though.
Bolstering can actually be very good for pugs; since they tend to be total AOE-fests, which is good, since with bolstering you WANT everything to die at the same time. Depends on the classes though.

Bolstering just means you want to kill trash packs all at once, or close to it if possible. It doesn't trigger from mobs created by abilities, such as the drones on Sand Queen. And since it doesn't interact with Reaping, those waves will be way way better than they were last week.
E: I agree with Javen above, with the one caveat that it makes having good interrupts very important for certain pulls, since some packs have enemies you want to burn down first before their casts get out of hand. On Tyrannical weeks, though, that's not as likely to be a problem as on Fortified.

It's kinda hard to beat last week for totally nonsense.

It absolutely triggers from the crawler mines created from the mechs at the end of Motherlode, though.

Weird. I wonder if that's because those mines are the same identity as the preexisting ones?

We discovered some trick to this. I dont remember what it was. Something like killing them directly procs bolster, but if you let them blow up it doesnt? Or maybe I have that backwards. There's definitely a way to make them not bolster stuff though.

Dyshow am I even using this gunRegistered Userregular
So I am juuuuust short of having enough Titan Residuum for a 415 token.
Since I already have heroic level shoulders and will be able to craft goggles shortly, is there any reason I shouldn't scrap my current chestpiece and go buy the token on my newly-shirtless orc?

Don’t buy it yet if you don’t have enough azerite levels for the first 3 rings, at the very least. Around level 38-40 I think?

Well, you might get a really bad chest out if the deal.

37, actually! Which I just have.
I'm going to go through with it then, assuming I didn't mess up my residuum math.

Letting them explode used to not trigger bolstering. Now it does.

well that's bullshit. Why'd they change it. Throwing yourself into the mines to not bolster things was cool.
I’ll be late tonight, possibly just absent. Which is probably for the best if we’re jumping in to heroic right away. My ilvl is probably a bit on the low side to be helpful.

I will probably be late if I make it at all. Joints all hurt something fierce.

Irl coworker told me that last week he ran Freehold+0 and got a 405 version of the dice trinket.
I miss when sockets were color coded and matching the colors unlocked a bonus.
I would like to do that key this week
I don’t. Because blizzard would be really dumb about the sockets and it was almost always better to just pound in your best stat.

I'm not sure why I'd need Freehold over either Angry or Zay, since they are fishing for a very specific item, there.
well that's bullshit. Why'd they change it. Throwing yourself into the mines to not bolster things was cool.
ok, but you still have to fight angry and zay to the death
It de-titanforged and actually rolled -20ilvl instead?
Also still at this hockey game hope you guys keep wiping so I can kill opulence when I get home
In a brilliant twist of fate, Fodo also got his best possible 415 azerite chest piece.
