Should implies a sense of not being 100% sure in my opinion.
Seasonal buff is going to be crazy.
Crusader Set had some significant number changes with no testing
Monk Set had some significant mechanics changes with no testing
Why no testing? Why rush the Patch this week? What testing was done to come to these conclusions? WhirlRend was overshot… what data said that? Why didn’t the same data tell you about the new Crusader Set? Basic arithmetic told me.
Because of the coming holidays, maybe? Though it was never confirmed in any way, I think I experienced something similar in HS a year, or two, ago; patch/card nerfs in an unusual date compare to other expansion.
Something like, thanksgiving holidays, then Christmas, then soon after New Year.
Crusader seems to be fine… Thanks god Barbs got nerfed… I was totally not looking forward to play Barb next season after having no fun at all with it on the PTR… But we heard this story all the time over the past days already…
We should just be glad and thankful that Blizzard is hearing us and giving us exactly what we asked for.
< /sarcasm>
Wiz and barb nerfed because they reached 140GR, but new Sader build is 140 at 4300 plvl!!!
Why can’t every build be at that power level? ugh.
Remember the guy who hit 140 with barb was 10K plvl, and that was OP! Had to nerf! Had to nerf or game would be broke!
For the second season in a row, I’m not playing.
So much this. Blizzard literally just shot themselves in the foot with the crappy response to barbarian nerf. It’s like they literally don’t want barbarian to ever be near the top. Especially if they let this crusader change go into season.
Blizzard continuously chooses to change things without proper testing because they prefer a deadline. Nev literally said this and now we are in a situation with thousands of people passed off because of the unfair barbarian nerf. Not only this, but blizzard then threw more wood on the fire by drastically overshooting the crusader buff. Like 10 fold.
We NEED proper testing for any major change. You change things and then you test things. That’s how it’s supposed to be. This 1week ptr, make changes and go live thing doesn’t work. It’s been done for the past few seasons and it seriously sucks.
I don’t even play barbarian and I feel extremely bad for them. They have been dumpster fired on and left in the dust.
That’s how Chant patch was rushed exactly like this, and then they did nerfed it after a damn heap of time, lying to us about some kind of “bug” they suprisingly found (after a months of changes like these being LIVE, rofl), but we know that wasn’t a bug, but a consequence of a 1 week short ptr cycle.
PTR non-seasonal, I did a GR123 in under 13 minutes.
Live non-seasonal, I barely managed a GR110 with 20 seconds left.
As if it needed confirming, the WW/Rend build is completely gutted.
