Why does it matter what someone else has? It literally cannot affect you in any way and I’m an expert on how all other people feel. I know you shouldn’t be upset because I am not, and whatever I think and feel is the right way.
This is honestly ridiculous. It’s like people living in a country with an oppressive government and being unhappy with it because others get to live in free countries and have their own opinions. People in Russia and China should just be happy for us. Our freedom doesn’t impact their lives at all. If they care about this, it’s just because they are jealous and selfish and can’t be happy for other people.

Yes.
Some people having a digital item in a video game that changes nothing in the game is just like how some people live in autocratic nations.

Nothing on eternal realm matters anyways
It doesn’t matter because it’s not seasonal content that would make anyone OP. They don’t need to remove it because of that reason. If that happened during the season, you can guarantee they would remove the items from people.
I don’t see how it makes a difference if it is in seasonal or not.
Both modes will have people playing them and in D2 Non Ladder was the preferred mode for PvP players where those Uniques will arguably have the biggest impact.
In the end a bug is a bug - no matter in which game mode.
It also creates this weird situation where people will perceive it as extremely unfair if they decide to remove any items from future bugs.
Treating people differently for doing the same thing will inevitably lead to frustration and unrest in the community.
Why should anyone be happy about ridiculous bug or how this whole situation got resolved?
Dumb company with even dumber people defending it

Blizzard tries not to touch people’s characters except in actual extreme cases. Just like how they didn’t remove experience from players who’ve abused some of the early XP “exploits.”
This isn’t as big of a deal as some of you try to make it. A Shako isn’t needed for any build. It isn’t needed to unlock any content. We don’t have leaderboards.
Hardcore players died to actual bugs in D4. Level 100 characters in fact I believe. Blizzard didn’t reset their characters either.
Crap happens. Blizzard will only touch your character or someone else’s in the most extreme game breaking reasons. This is laughably not even close to an example where they would take action and why no one should have expected a roll back or anything.
lmao so accurate, these “WhY dO YoU cArE” posts are so stupid

I just rolled my eyes, because you don’t have anything to say about the subject and just want to be a keyboard warrior and pick at what I had to say on the subject.
Put one player with Shako up against a player without Shako and see where it goes.
“It doesn’t matter” is plain and simply not true and therefore a bad basis to build your argument on.
Not really the same thing.
Every HC player knows what they are signing up for.

An expert on how people feel should know that telling people how they should feel is an amateur mistake.

I know.
It’s actually worse since it affected their game play.
And a handful of people having a Shako doesn’t affect anyone else’s game play.
I assume this is PVP related?
Put one HOTA Barb against a player without a HOTA Barb and see where it goes.
Every HC player is treated the same.
You can always die due to a bug or a disconnect and it would not be reasonable to expect Blizzard to review every single HC death.
I wouldn’t have an issue with them putting in the work and reviving characters of which they can 100% confirm that they died to a bug/dc, but it is plain and simply not going to happen for several technical and logistical reasons.
On the other hand they apparently can easily figure out which accounts got an item due to a bug and blatantly told us that this time people get to keep them and next time they might treat people differently and delete them.
Imo they need to pick one side:
- exploiting isn’t ok and they always delete those items
- exploiting is ok, they don’t delete the items and give everyone a shot at using it
Anything else causes frustration, unrest and an extremely high incentive to search for and abuse exploits as much and quickly as possible - which at least in my opinion is not the mindset you should condition your playerbase on.
Everyone can make a HotA Barb - basically no one can get a Shako without abusing bugs.

lol except your seasonal characters are rolled into the eternal one
have fun getting stomped by people with the exploited shakos whenever you go in that area 
people should come to understand that seasons should only be a perk for better cosmetics… the lack of endgame for a $80 to $110 dollar game is a slap in the face. all the devs really care to talk about are the seasons… it makes them money and in turn makes shareholders happy… thats all they care about.
So you believe P2W is fine too?
Isn’t it though? Some of the bug deaths were pretty bad.
Shouldn’t HC players expect Blizzard to QA their game?
I guess you’re new to Blizzard games. I wasn’t just talking out my behind when I said Blizzard will go out of their way not to touch players’ characters. But sometimes, they have to or might have to in the future.
There was no reason to think this was an example of when they would.
And yet there’s a half dozen threads here on the front page quitting D4 until HOTA is balanced because HOTA Barbs are ruining PVP.
Woa woa there, let’s not toss around the exploit word here… opening a chest doesn’t make me an exploiter. Not to mention the fact that non season doesn’t matter anyway
“We can and have tracked the shako but meh, too much work… deal with it”
Fantastic message being sent to the player base lol.
