6 stages is not Vanilla, nor is 4 stages. (Hint: there were 12).
That’s fine. To reword it: They have not changed their mind about any actual Vanilla feature not being at 1.12. Only changes from outside Vanilla have changed based on feedback.
That’s Classic not Vanilla. Vanilla had 12 phases. It’s a “Something specific to how we’re doing Classic” not “something to replicate what the values were at 1.12”.
I know there is no separation though. You said they never made any changes to classic that would have been a change from the original 1.1>1.12 based on feedback. And you’re wrong. They started with 1.12 loot tables but transitioned it to be 1.1 and then gradually move to 1.12.
Why are you ignoring the progressive loot tables? This is something they 100% changed because of us.
They originally planned on having 1.12 loot tables. This was in vanilla. This had nothing to do with the content cycle. They heard us talking about how broken it was and decided to start with 1.1 loot tables which was in vanilla.
This is literally NO different than if they decided to start with 1.5 av during the release of av and then changing it to the 1.11 version later on.
The loot tables will be “pre 1.10”, not 1.1. There are only two drop table phases. Item release is just part of the Content Patch system. The pre-1.10 loot tables are because they found enough of an existing backup taken before 1.10 to do a consistent drop rate update.
They don’t have the data for anything else, but since they do have the data for a pre 1.10 drop table, they’re doing it.
Your examples are getting thinner and thinner but just as easy to knock down.
That statement is still correct. All your attempts to prove otherwise have failed. Your claim about them listening to us on drop rates is something you brought up, and is still wrong.
Blizzard has only listened to us on things that are not directly Vanilla choices.
You “literally” didn’t. All you did is claim you’re right without actually providing any proof besides “because something unrelated to feedback happened.”
Keep going, it gives me something to do while waiting in Blizzcon queue.
What’s this “progressive loot tables” stuff? They are not doing progressive loot tables.
They are omitting loot that was not present during each of the 6 stages. The gear will be the 1.12 version. Not the “progressive” version based on the patch for the 6 stages.
For the sake of stopping pointless argument with you, because its clear you’re so convinced of your own self-righteousness and infallibility, while failing to understand the basic difference between what is Vanilla and what is Classic, I’m going to stop arguing. Not a concession, just… watching the AXS promo video is more interesting than repeating myself ad nauseum.
