Clearly you cannot be serious Masterjay… did you even read Nev’s full response?? 
Stop defending the D3 Dev Team’s lack of communication, please.
Blizzcon was over 11 days ago. They’ve had more than enough time to prepare the S19 launch accordingly, especially after how porous the D3 announcement/updates were at Blizzcon.
The problem is the leaderboard from era 11/patch 2.6.6 that just finished. Wizards and necromancers were nerfed in patch 2.6.7.

I did and I am. She took the time and effort to communicate prior to Blizzcon and right after Blizzcon when she was sick. Would y’all have preferred no communication at all? Because that was a common thing in years past.
Also some love for the Monk set.
I don’t get why noone is upset by that aswell. It’s super clunky and needs further adjustment.
let the barbs and crusaders have their fun, its just a videogame, powerfull overtuned chars is what makes a game fun sometimes, its just one season, what do u have to lose…, why deny people their fun , the fun police needs to be locked up and the key trown away
This is NOT a valid excuse. The reason being, there shouldnt only be ONE person allowed to give updates to the Diablo community!!
Based on your logic, if she got sick for 3 months, would we just not receive an update on DIablo III for 3 months? Is this hows its going to be moving forward? One person to give us updates, based on her schedule and convenience lol.
I think I now finally realize why so many people left Diablo III in the first place.
This level of communication and the absurd excuses we’ve heard over the past few years, is absolutely unreal.
And THAT is not a valid response. I said she did communicate when she was sick, not didn’t, so there isn’t any excuse. And staffing doesn’t fall on her either. Your response isn’t logical, try again. Better yet just don’t try again, as there’s nothing to discuss here with you.
I can’t even respond to this level of nonsense, take care bud.
I’m unsure what the motivation for the Dev’s feeling that they “overshot” the WWrend build was, but it’s pretty clear to even a casual like me that they were wrong. If they used DP’s 140 clear and ridiculous rhetoric about higher potential hypothetical clears, then that was a huge mistake and we can all see it now.
If, for some reason they are hoping to take away the barb focus now and then use this (lamitation buff) as a carrot later when they get their new set patch, this is also a mistake. you will lose a percentage of that base and they will not come back, ever.
Critical time here. You can give in - even a little - and reverse a huge error in judgement with the nerf. OR you can irreversibly put your foot in it and then spend the next 6 months trying to make it up to barbs.
Give back the 200% buff on the belt, it’s a no brainer. it’s costs nothing (since it was already programmed and intended).
Just once, pick the path that pleases both sides. it’s not as difficult as you as a company have been making it seem lately.
Re-buff the barbs lamentation belt, the wiz’s chantodos bonus, and leave the sader’s alone. Finally saders have a spot in the high level meta-group. Let us have fun with more buffs and no nerfs.
EU has a Solo 150 clear. The new set is too op, they must nerf it.
Solo with 10k Paragon yes!
Last season no one complained about wiz clearing 145 with 5k Paragon
I don’t think Sader needs a nerf!!!
Why do you still play the game ? All of your post are unconstructive and hating everything that comes from this forum… All of them lol, must be a sad dude with all the toxicity, want things always your way… Grow up dude lmao
This is a good suggestion, I really don’t want to be playing Holy Shotgun again. I did that 7 years ago with Akkhan, Fate of the Fell and Hellskull.
Leave the saders alone (why can’t ppl solo 150?), and revert the Lamentation belt from PTR.
Thanks for the post and info!
We love you in the EU too 
Can you make it exactly a week then? So it can start on Tuesday? Next friday just seems sooooooooooooooooooooooo far away lol.
Except for Barbarians…
Barbs were “overtuned” because they did a GR140 on PTR, but Crusaders solo’ing a GR50 is fine…
She did not say or imply that. Do you honestly think that crusader AoV will not be nerfed?
If they leave it how it is, you have a point. Otherwise…
Even if (and I stress if) they nerf the Crusader back by 10 GR levels, that still leaves them at GR140 like some of the other classes, whilst the post-Lamentation Barbs are still stuck at GR130 or so on live.
So, “balance”, you said…
