Sorry but you are always rushing to defend BlizZard without taking into consideration that people have already tested the changes in beta, PTR and already offered the feedback.
To call it doomsaying is basically saying you don’t have an argument.
The AoE cap is a massive nerf to mat farming, gold farming, transmog farming, doing low level content and end game content.
Not acknowledging this reality since anyone can test the PTR or beta is basically saying “I don’t care”.
