Blizzard, in typical fashion. Full 10 days worth of invite only testing and you then do a 50-60% damage reduction patch on day 3 of the pre release? Are you actually all insane? This is an ANTI fun patch. Absolutely gross.

This patch is atrocious. Itās so out of touch. Everything already felt pretty underpowered and now this. Iām not sure what theyāre going for.

Itās so odd for most feedback to be how weak everyone feels in most builds and their response to be to severely nerf the few things that are doing well.

For good reason. Some of that stuff was absolutely insane. Iād have gone even further on a few of them, starting with getting rid of the Exploit glyph, entirely.

I hope the people who didnāt get early access see this and start canceling preorders en masse. Itās too late for usā¦but they can save themselves and maybe send Blizzard a message.
I was teetering on a knife edge as to whether I wanted to basically abandon this game alreadyā¦I just read the patch notes and they screwed sorcerers (and everyone else) even more. I donāt know what screwed up philosophy is guiding them in the D4 wing at Blizzard but Iām done.
And there will be no more good money thrown after the bad.
P.S. Of course the fanboys will still defend it.
EDIT: Hell they even nerfed treasure goblinsā¦why the eff did they need nerfed??? 99% of the time they drop trash.

Yeah, Rogues were pretty squishy as is and now they nerf the only overall defensive skill weāve got by half.
Way to go ActiBlizz.

Thatās all that they have done since alpha. Every single build I have seen people enjoy or that I have enjoyed has been nerfed. Every patch is just nerf after nerf . The new team for diablo is trash.

I really want to know what their logic is. I mean they want slow progression apparentlyā¦do they think thatās going to make people spend more time playing and buy more stuff? I mean my guess is it will just make more people quit, Gamers have changed and āaint nobody got time got thatā.
Or if you want to get more conspiracy mindedā¦is this setting the stage for those totally not pay to win āāāconvenienceāāā items that a lot of us expect on the storeā¦like experience boosters.

My Rogue build got buffed massively lol. Small nerf on Dark Shroud but no biggy, the dps increase is welcomed,

Anyone have a link to the notes?
This is my worst fear surrounding āLive Serviceā MMO style ARPG is the constant nerf bat.
Also they need to start handing out FREE ReRolls if they are going to micro manage the game like this.

There does seem to be a condition for D4 designers where they see difficulty, then DOUBLE IT instinctively.
If itās not double the struggle, youāre not designing it right! I just did a dungeon where these charging guys would fly in from off-screen, and even if they tapped me with the end of their charge Iād take 60-85% of my health in damage (85% was a champion version hitting me.)
Then thereās packs of 4 of these guys charging in every direction. I didnāt die a single time somehow, but some monsters just seem stupidly overtunedā¦or maybe my necro is just weak? Iām aware necros arenāt ātankyā (Iām sure thereās a spec for it,) but itās these random monsters that are out of the ordinary to make sure I know how weak my character is.
Not even going to get into my skelly mages trying to pelt an elite with the anti-projectile barrier, along with my golem and such attacking immune mobs over others; not sure any devs actually play a necro.
Sigh, I need to log out of these forums and just play. Nothing will come of my complaining.

Its not even this, its that every build that is actually has synergy and is enjoyable is getting nerfed. People are being punished for theorycrafting good builds, and it makes no sense.

They felt great fear that their endgame content will be done too easy and too fast.
Acting out of emotions makes room for great errors and overreacting unrationally.
The game is 3 DAYS old and reacting in this way and nerfing is nothing but acting out of emotions of fear. In three days they donāt have data to make just adjustments, no way. It was pure overreaction out of fear.

Yea this also sucks. Makes it so you need to keep a build super secret so you can try to find some joy.
