The only reason why people using the PTR is testing. Now you disable the NPC Vendor for around 24 hours.
Keep it active and I am fine with crashes. And disable it in 3-4 hours. At least we can test everything with some gear.

Why did they disable the vendor.
Do they not want testing done.

It doesn’t matter anyway. I managed a few legendary and unique caches before they disabled the vendor. Zero ancestrals. Complete cluster.

Most of the people had no intention of actual testing or providing feedback. They just wanted to “abuse” the buffs and free loot to play around or set themselves up for S7.
This thread is pretty much proof positive of that.

the whole point of getting those “buffs and free loot” is to test the new interactions of the season stuff with end-game builds.
So blizzard wants players to start from scratch on a few day PTR so they can see how balanced end-game is?
logic.

This does not bode well.
Blizzard and bugs. Like a damn ant colony.

You can copy your characters over and test most of it.
And that changes nothing about what I said about not actually testing and providing feedback.
With this community do you really think most of it’s player base really has the integrity to report it if they find the next S6 SB.
Logic.

I mean… have you seen the bug report section? I think some if not most players would want to submit feedback and bug reports.
Also, the previous PTRs had plenty of feedback as well.
That wasnt aimed at you btw. that was supposed to be “blizzard logic”

Legit question time.
How many of those reports were players finding overpowered things? Not just broken and underpowered?
I dunno the exact numbers, but there have been plenty of times where people tried to warn blizzard about OP stuff.
Although, now that I think about it, when has blizzard actually ever listened to PTR feedback so… /shrug

disable NPC and disable PTR we don’t need test
This is exactly what a ptr is for.
If they want play testers to actually work and write up reports, they can pay them to do it.

And there it is.
4 characters required
The truth shall set you free.
It’s no secret that people go to the ptr for this reason. It’s the only real reason to go.
Hell, a lot of people will find a bug and not tell a soul so they can exploit it when it goes live !!!

So wait, let me get this straight, in order to try out the new Seasonal mechanics on the PTR, we need to make a brand new character correct? However we can’t Boost or get items for this character due to the NPC being down?

I like seeing these posts of people that can’t boost their character to OP status. it’s very telling.
