We wanted to implement OUR changes - aligned with “our philosophy” at “our own predicted model of pacing” …reverted. We didn’t “INTEND” this - therefore = Bad. Non game breaking, build enabling, enjoyable and not overpowered.Ĭan’t have that because it wasn’t SPECIFICALLY stated as X change in patch notes.ĭeveloper’s Note: We wanted to implement targeted changes and buffs for the Druid instead of having a particular Druid build be strong because of a bug. “Oh no it WORKS and we didn’t intentionally mean to do it!!?1?” I’m speaking HQ bureaucracy & “philosophy” - not Dev’s individually. The reversion was a lesson in obstinacy, inflexibility and lack of scope/perspective. It may have “technically” been a bug - but it wasn’t a bad one.

In this case - it clearly opened up a Build and Options. Fix the bug to kill the build but not actually implement necessary skill changes within same patch.īugs are nothing more than unintended and unexpected consequences.
