Yep, having been a recent victim, the cheap 'booter' services are still doing NTP & DNS reflection attacks. They're easy to do and require very few resources on the part of the attacker. Flooding a 1G service to the point of total uselessness is trivial and cheap.
Sadly there's absolutely nothing you can do on your own firewall/router to block or mitigate them - your connection's downstream just gets flooded with UDP packets and becomes totally useless. The only mitigations/blocking can be done by your ISP and their connectivity partners.
