Helltide Threat bugfix

Fixed an issue where Helltide Threat could be locked at max if the player logged out while Hellmarked.

Now that you’ve fixed this problem, what are you going to do to compensate for the fact that Helltide isn’t going to be at all as much fun as it used to be with a permanent maximum threat?

Start by fixing the bugs that annoy everyone else, before worrying about the ones that make the game better.

They will compensate you by letting you play the game. Do you want a cookie or something? A bug is a bug. They fixed it. Be glad they are fixing bugs at all instead of going " WELLLLL ACKHTUALLLLYYYYY YOU OWE ME". Damned if you do and damned if you don’t.

Really? Or artificially extends playtime through time/content gating contents?

There are way more things worthy of their attention to extend our playing time positively. Helltide threat is the least worry.

-Class balances, where is druid/sorc (non immortal FS)? Do sorc still need to leave boss on FO?
-Stygian drop rates
-Loot filter

why couldnt they fix the issue where you get multi pages of the same pages you got already and they fill up your storage so any loot that you actually might want to go there goes poof and you get the crappy pages you already know…

The HT Threat bug made me understand just how rare ga gear is. Helltide was better with it imo.

Make the good bugs features. Have the threat meter build up as normal and once maxed it stays there until you leave helltide or that one ends.

They prioritize fixing the fun stuff while ignoring many critical issues. Half of us Druid skills tree is broken for almost a year now and there hasn’t been a single acknowledgment from Blizzard. What a shame.

I have been wanting to roll a Druid, But they really need a rework in my opinon. Way to resource hungry for small damage numbers.

Devs, please talk to the people who play your game.

Helltides with threat meter stuck at full was alot of fun.

At a ritual with enemies spawning, plus enemies spawning around the player with full threat meter and add in worms spawning around the pit adding in additional enemies.

It was chaos, and it was truly enjoyable. I have been loggin in just for helltides as they were that much fun.

Now that this bug is fixed, i find myself lacking any reason to play any longer this season. Vanilla is slow, very few enemies. I find myself just wanting the helltide to be over so i can do something else.

But the problem is, there isnt anything else to go and do. More enemies = alot more fun. Chaos = fun.

Helltides at full threat = should be the normal way to play helltides.

Rip fun. In all seriousness though, maybe Devs can consider upping the density and/or full bar progress + duration?

I just couldn’t play Helltides without this. The difference was just too massive. From slow and empty to actually constant action and fun. The only time in all of the seasons I could legit sit and blast through a full hour of Helltide with no break. I know it was a bug, but this is extremely disheartening.
